BBC Breakfast hosts announce Oasis reunion tour BBC Breakfast sparked a backlash among viewers on Tuesday after Ben Thompson and Sally Nugent halted the show for some breaking news about Oasis. Sally began: "Good morning it is Tuesday 27th of August and our main story in the last few moments, the band Oasis has announced a UK and Ireland tour next year with gigs in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh, and Dublin." As a breaking news banner appeared on screen, Ben continued as he waved a piece of paper in the air: "Hot off the press, this is it, this is the confirmation so many people have been waiting for.
That long-awaited reunion. "Of course, famous for their hits like Wonderwall and Don't Look Back in Anger, the band split in 2009, so let's talk to our culture correspondent, Charlotte Gallagher, who is with us." Turning to Charlotte, Ben went on: "A lot of speculation, a lot of rumour, this is it.
" Charlotte replied: "I am so glad they've announced it when we've not all just been saying it was going to happen and then they said, 'We're going to re-issue an old album, guys." She went on to discuss Oasis' 14 tour dates, adding: "Let's be honest if they sell out Wembley four dates, they're going to add more, aren't they? They may well break Taylor Swift's record."
