Alice Porter, reporting for GB News on today’s scorching temperatures from Hampstead Heath, lost her hat to a wayward breeze.
On The Briefing with Tom Harwood, Tom was discussing the recent heatwave and the scorching temperatures.
Alice outlined the precautions that those vulnerable to the heat should take, including drinking water, staying at home, and applying sunscreen.
Her hat was then blown by the wind into the reeds behind, leaving Alice visibly stunned.

Tom exclaimed “Goodness me!”, and there was a brief break from the report in order for the “hat-rescue mission” to be carried out.
Luckily, the hat was saved by an intrepid paddle-boarder.
Today marks another day of the heatwave sweeping the UK.
