John Campbell's hilarious attempt at presenting the weather on TVNZ1's Breakfast

With Matty away the Breakfast host is out of his element filling in, but he does his best.

TVNZ1's Breakfast host John Campbell has made a hilarious attempt to present the weather this morning while the usual weatherman Matty McLean was away.

While Campbell initially calls for industrial action by the Breakfast team by "going to that shot and just leav[ing] it there for three minutes", he eventually decides to present the weather - with a little coaxing by an Aldous Harding song.

Campbell eventually slides over to the screen but misses his mark, blocking the map. The screen, too, is out of time with his reading. While he eventually manages to present the weather after a few mishaps, Campbell stops halfway through to urge viewers to "listen to Aldous [Harding] for a sec."

While Hayley Holt said she was "quite impressed" with John's effort, newsreader Daniel Faitaua wasn't so impressed.

"You're such a lovely person, aren't you? Because I thought it was such a shambles. It was kind of just all over the place," he said.
