Monday’s BBC Breakfast focused on Hollywood actor Will Ferrell’s visit to Wrexham, where he attended a football match, much to the surprise of some local fans. It came as the Welsh town has welcomed some famous faces in recent years since Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney bought the club in 2021. However, viewers tuned into the programme were quick to complain the coverage was “unimportant” and pleaded for interviews to be “wrapped up”.
Footage of the Elf star talking into a camera about his excitement ahead of the match went viral at the weekend.
The woman behind the camera, Amy, joined BBC Breakfast hosts Sally Nugent and Ben Thompson along with fellow Wrexham fans, mother and daughter Alex and Evie.
“Amy, am I right in thinking you filmed quite a lot of the stuff with Will over the weekend?” Sally asked.
“Well, I filmed that video that you just heard there,” the fan replied.

“No, he was surrounded by people wanting photos,” Alex replied. “We just waited patiently and eventually he got to us.”
Many tuned in weren’t impressed by the interview as it continued, with several accusing the BBC show of focusing on unimportant things.

@Erasmo2058 penned: “Please wrap this interview up. #BBCBreakfast.”
