BBC Breakfast kicked things off on Friday (17 October) morning with a sad announcement regarding a much-loved rock star's death, as the show paid a moving tribute.
Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty were back on TV screens with another packed episode of BBC Breakfast, featuring numerous interviews, news segments, and weather updates.
Minutes into Friday's show, Charlie and Naga shared the news of the death of KISS guitarist Ace Frehley, who passed away at the age of 74 on 16 October.
The star, real name Paul Daniel Frehley, was known for his Spaceman persona and was a founding member of the US band, alongside vocalist and guitarist Paul Stanley, bass guitarist Gene Simmons, and drummer Peter Criss.
"Tributes have been paid to one of the founding members of the band KISS. Paul 'Ace' Frehley, who has died at the age of 74," Charlie announced on BBC Breakfast.
A montage containing numerous clips of Ace was then played, while Charlie continued: "He was known for guitar solos and he wore the Spaceman outfit from the band's formation in 1973 until he left the band in 1982.
"He later rejoined in the late 1990s. His bandmates Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley called him 'an essential and irreplaceable rock soldier'."
Ace's death was announced on Thursday evening in a statement released by his family. He is survived by his wife, Jeanette, and his daughter, Monique.
“We are completely devastated and heartbroken. In his last moments, we were fortunate enough to have been able to surround him with loving, caring, peaceful words, thoughts, prayers, and intentions as he left this earth," the statement read.
The family continued: "We cherish all of his finest memories, his laughter, and celebrate his strengths and kindness that he bestowed upon others. The magnitude of his passing is of epic proportions and beyond comprehension.
"Reflecting on all of his incredible life achievements, Ace’s memory will continue to live on forever!”
Elsewhere, Ace's bandmates Paul and Gene released a joint statement, which read: "We are devastated by the passing of Ace Frehley. He was an essential and irreplaceable rock soldier during some of the most formative foundational chapters of the band and its history. He is and will always be a part of KISS's legacy."
