Weatherman Chris Fawkes presented the Countryfile weather report today but viewers noticed something was amiss.
It comes as fans of the BBC programme have noticed the meteorologists on the show can often be seen sporting checked shirts.
However, Chris was wearing a plain blue shirt and viewers were quick to point it out.
Viewers took to Twitter to question the weatherman on where his checked shirt was and the show’s official Twitter account even got involved.
“No checked shirt? #Countryfile,” one asked.
Another queried: “And where is your checked shirt sir? #countryfile 5 day forecast.”
“No check on that shirt – and he hasn’t even bothered to roll up his sleeves – lazy g**!….#countryfile,” a third jested.
A fourth exclaimed: “@_chrisfawkes No idea when it comes to #Countryfile shirts!”
“WHERE IS THE CHECKED SHIRT @BBCCountryfile #countryfile #CheckedShirt #Weatherman,” a fifth pondered before getting a reply from the official Countryfile account.
The response read: “Severe wardrobe malfunction Ellie. Memo’s will be sent.”
However, it was clear the whole debacle was all in good fun.
Today’s programme saw the presenters exploring different parts of Surrey, as the official synopsis read: “Countryfile is exploring Surrey, where Matt Baker meets the women who have inspired generations of conservationists.
“Helen Skelton visits a biodynamic vineyard, John Craven finds out how best to go about keeping pigs, Steve Brown unearths the history of the Surrey landscape through sculpture, Adam finds out what Brexit means to our farmers, and Tom looks at whether the UK’s favourite meat could – or should – ever be antibiotic-free.”
Tom Heap explored the use of antibiotics on chicken farms in the UK.
It comes following claims from the industry that they reduced their use by 82 per cent in order to tackle antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
The British Poultry Council had claimed farmers had cut the total use of antibiotics from 81 tonnes to just over 14 tonnes annually over the past six year.
However, the programme found the figure does not include 281 tonnes of antibiotics known as ionophores.
AMR campaigners have said these pose a risk to both human health and the environment.
Countryfile continues Sunday on BBC One.
