BBC Breakfast presenter Sally Nugent has opened up on the "really rebellious" habit she sometimes finishes her day with. In a new interview, the newsreader, 50, spoke about joining

the BBC Breakfast team following the departure of Louise Minchin last year, after nearly 20 years at the helm. Addressing her nighttime routine, Sally candidly painted a picture of an

evening in the Nugent household. The journalist admitted that if she was feeling awake, she'd watch her colleague Emily Maitlis on BBC Two. She said: "Around 9.30pm, although if

I’m being really rebellious, I’ll stay up and watch Newsnight." However, she admitted that she also has a meeting to prepare for work before going to bed. READ MORE: PENNY LANCASTER IN

VERY CANDID INSIGHT INTO SEX LIFE WITH HUSBAND ROD Sally explained: "Before bed, I have a late briefing on the phone with whoever is editing the programme through the night." The

BBC star told how her alarm is set for 3.40am, with her leaving the house half an hour later. While on the way to the office, Sally told how she tunes in to BBC Radio 5 Live to get up to

date with the news, before scanning the newspapers ahead of sitting on the red sofa. Elsewhere in the interview, Sally also opened up on how she's finding her time on BBC Breakfast so

far. Recently, Dan cheekily branded Sally "a hindrance" after she helped him score high on a new word-based game. Discussing the hit game Wordle with Countdown’s Susie Dent, the

pair attempted to play the game and managed to guess the word after an impressive three tries. Taking to Twitter, Dan wrote: “We are talking to @susie_dent about the obsession with Wordle on

#BBCbreakfast this morning. “@sallynugent and I combined our brains and got it done in 3,” he added with a trophy emoji. The presenter also attached a picture of the green squares appearing

from two, to three, to five, as each letter was placed in the right order. “Minus points for not doing it yourself,” BBC Radio 5 Live presenter Steve Crossman pointed out, with reference to

Sally. “Sally was looking over my shoulder. More of a hindrance than a help,” Dan replied with three laughing emojis. Sally simply responded with a winking face emoji and gave no additional

information on how much she might have helped Dan. _THE LATEST EDITION OF RADIO TIMES IS ON NEWSSTANDS NOW._
