Viewers were startled on Wednesday when subtitles drastically misquoted Carol Kirkwood, with the popular weather presenter being alerted to the gaffe following the morning's live BBC Breakfast broadcast.
Fans took to X, formerly Twitter, to share that subtitles said that she'd uttered the words "50 bras" when she was actually talking about strong winds, with one social media user posting a screenshot to the site.
They captioned it: "As if the wind wasn’t enough, poor @carolkirkwood has to contend with erroneous captions @bbcweather. Thank you for giving me a big chuckle this morning!!"

Carol was mis-quoted in the subtitles
The weather presenter only recently returned to TV screens following time off after her winter wedding to new husband Steve Randall. The happy couple tied the knot in late December in what Carol later described as an "intimate" ceremony.
"It was the most perfect and romantic and intimate wedding. We are both so incredibly happy," she told BBC Breakfast after sharing photos from the special day.
The 61-year-old weather presenter looked breathtakingly beautiful for her second wedding, which took place in Buckinghamshire. Carol, who has been a regular face on our screens since 1998, wore a satin wedding gown with a fitted waist and a striking Bardot neckline.
The princess-style gown boasted a full skirt and was perfectly paired with a simple silver necklace. Carol styled her blonde locks in a classic updo, with loose curls framing her face.

Carol's colleagues past and present were moved by the first-look photos, taking to Instagram to express their congratulations to the happy couple.

Steph McGovern commented: "How gorgeous and happy do Carol and Steve look? Congratulations. So pleased for you both". Carol recently confessed her plan to wed Steve in secret before "[telling] everyone later" so it seems none of her colleagues were invited to her special day.

The TV star also opened up about her relationship with Steve, explaining that she wasn't looking for romance when they first met. "Steve came into my life when I was already very happy, I didn't need a man in my life — but I want him in my life — and that's the difference," she said. The couple, who live in Berkshire, have largely kept their romance out of the public eye.
