BBC BREAKFAST SH0CK: Show Pulled Off Air as Sally Nugent and Jon Kay Share Heartbreaking News

BBC Breakfast was halted for heartbreaking news on Tuesday (November 4) as a guest admitted, “I don’t want to di3”.

During today’s edition of the hit morning programme, hosts Sally Nugent and Jon Kay updated viewers with the latest news from across the UK and around the world.

They were joined in the studio by John Watson, who presented the sports segment, while Carol Kirkwood delivered regular weather updates.

At the start of the show, Sally and Jon shared an update after the devastating train attack that took place over the weekend.

Passengers travelling from Doncaster to London were attacked in a mass stabbing on a train on Saturday night (November 1).

Eleven people received treatment in hospital following the attack. One – a member of the train staff – is in a “critical but stable condition”.

On today’s BBC Breakfast, Jon confirmed: “Cambridgeshire police are investigating whether three knife-related incidents in Peterborough on Friday and Saturday are linked to the attacks on a train, in which ten people were stabbed.”

Sally added: “32-year-old Anthony Williams appeared in court, charged with eleven counts of attempted murder, including a separate knife attack at a station in East London in the early hours of Saturday morning.”

In a pre-recorded interview, survivor Stephen Crean reflected on the traumatic events. The Nottingham Forest FC supporter received severe injuries to his head and hand after he confronted the attacker on the train, going face-to-face with him.

“He’s pulled out this great, big, oversized blade and he started waving it about,” Stephen revealed.

“[The attacker] said, ‘Do you want to d!e?’ And I said, ‘No, I don’t want to di3’. He said [it] about three times. He started swinging and I grabbed his arm, and that’s when my fingers are being quite [injured] – not a pretty sight. But then he caught me on the head and stuff like that.”

On why he decided to confront the attacker, Stephen went on: “I don’t think I had much choice. I didn’t hear [people] going into the buffet cart. It wasn’t until I heard they were safe that I turned around, and I was still making sure he’s not making it past. I don’t want him to get past.

“It was one on one, basically, at that stage, just me and him, no one else. Eventually, after that little tussle with him, I got past him.. He tried to get in the buffet cart. It was great that he didn’t get in there. I locked the door, and there was a puddle of blood.”

Stephen has since received messages of thanks from his fellow passengers, concluding: “That was lovely. It was quite emotional because I didn’t know what I’d done. I didn’t have a clue, and that hit home then.”
