BBC Breakfast fans spotted a clear sign that a journalist's notes were used to make a paper airplane on Thursday's episode of the show.
Mike Bushell, 60, appeared on the sofa to chat to Naga Munchetty, 51, and Charlie Stayt, 63, about the latest sports headlines.
He then headed off to a different part of the studio and faced the camera to read out the latest news, including Coventry City's latest victory and Jack Draper's success against Novak Djokovic in the Indian Wells tournament.
While presenting, Mike was holding a pile of paper in his hands and rearranged them so that some scrunched up paper was on display to viewers.
It didn't go unnoticed by those watching at home and some pointed out that it looked like it was used to make a plane out of paper.
One viewer pointed out on Reddit: 'Mike Bushell ... making paper airplanes before going on air.'
BBC Breakfast fans spotted a clear sign that a journalist's notes were used to make a paper airplane on Thursday's episode of the show.
Mike Bushell, 60, who has been part of the team since 2006, appeared on the sofa to chat to Naga Munchetty, 51, and Charlie Stayt, 63, about the latest sports headlines.
He then headed off to a different part of the studio and faced the camera to read out the latest news, including Coventry City's latest victory and Jack Draper's success against Novak Djokovic in the Indian Wells tournament.
'As a former engineer of aeronautical pulped wood I don't believe this was previously an airplane. The folds are not consistent with any design that would stay airborne for any meaningful amount of time.'
'A terrible paper airplane then,' one replied.
'It's fake papers. They are sometimes given a random handful of papers to give the authentic newsreader feel because the reality of reading from the autocue is a bit jarring for the viewer.
'So this bit of paper we can see has been grabbed from a pile of scrap; hence it was a paper airplane.'
This got people talking in the CasualUK thread, with one adding: 'They're supposed to be real, with the programme's running order.'
'Even if the presenter doesn't read from them, they need to follow along with the programme in case the autocue fails.'
'It's a hangover from times gone by before autocue when newsreaders literally read the news. People like the familiarity; it just feels right; otherwise they're just presenters.'
'I also don't think that sounds right. Far more likely its just so they have something to do with their hands. What you do with your hands is a part of public speaking.'
Mike joined the Beeb back in 1990 as a trainee reporter at BBC Radio Solent.
He's worked for the likes of BBC South Today and the BBC News channel.
The broadcaster has been part of the BBC Breakfast team since 2006.
He regularly hosts the sport segments on the show on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and has presented around the world.
Mike has also appeared in other TV shows as himself.
Some include Strictly Come Dancing, And They're Off! and Celebrity Mastermind.
He boasts 57.6k followers on X and his bio states: 'Breakfast tv sport pres/record holder at trying 560 different sports.'
The star is a proud dad of three.
