Charlie Stayt admitted he was “enormously upset” as he shared with BBC Breakfast viewers a headline that had stunned him.<\/p>\n
“I’m just looking at one of the inside pages,” he explained, “Mini – the manufacturers of the Mini, which is owned now by BMW announced that the Mini Cooper, of course famous for The Italian Job film, will only be sold with an automatic gearbox in the future.<\/p>\n
“So you cannot and will not be able to buy a Mini Cooper with a manual gearbox.”<\/p>\n
“Oh,” co-host Sarah Campbell responded before asking: “Are you upset about that?”<\/p>\n
“Yes! Enormously upset,” Charlie replied. “It feels massively wrong.”<\/p>\n

Yeah, it’s just a change, isn’t it?<\/p>\n “I can remember when cars used to have gear levers up on the dashboard you would kind of pull in and out.”<\/p>\n “Right…” Sarah replied before asking: “And did they have indicators or did you have to stick your hand out to let them know where you’re going?”<\/p>\n “I used to drive a car that had an arm you controlled with a toggle and it controlled the arm, it came out of your side,” Charlie recalled.<\/p>\n “Good, lovely,” Sarah stated sarcastically as Charlie added: “I didn’t make that up, you know.”<\/p>\n “A glimpse into your motoring history,” she continued before changing the subject swiftly.<\/p>\n Charlie enjoys sharing anecdotes on the show and on Thursday’s programme was scolded for going “off-topic”.<\/p>\n While interviewing former Death in Paradise star Ben Miller, Charlie became distracted by the subject of giants and quizzed Ben, who had written a book involving the mythical creatures, about why they couldn’t swim.<\/p>\n He soon admitted a BBC editor had told him in his earpiece to move on from the subject.<\/p>\n
