BBC Breakfast shows scenes from NHS corrective surgery BBC Breakfast came under fire from fans over the weekend as they aired "graphic scenes" early in the morning. Viewers were waking up to the show only to be met with scenes of surgery - much to their dismay. At around 7.
30am on Sunday, the show featured a segment on Pinky Jolley, from the Wirral, who nearly died twice after a botched weight loss operation in Turkey . The video clip accompanying the report showed shots of her going under the knife, surrounded by surgeons as she had corrective surgery under the NHS back in the UK. The report shared that the operation was successful and allowed her to eat solid food for the first time in three years.
But fans at home weren't too pleased as they complained that it was "too early" for such a graphic story. One user on X/Twitter sarcastically wrote: "Graphic surgery scenes this early in a morning..
. yum #bbcbreakfast." Another user echoed their thoughts, adding: "Surgery and dog s**t lovely sunday topics this morning #bbcbreakfast.
" A third user complained: "Would have been nice if Pinky highlighted the dangers of surgery in Turkey considering we are paying for the remedial surgery #BBCBreakfast."
