Channel Nine's Today show was plunged into chaos on Monday just seconds before Sarah Abo and her fill-in co-host James Bracey were due to go on-air.
In a behind-the-scenes video posted to Instagram, Sarah, 35, was frantically cleaning up her desk after spilling coffee, just 30 seconds before the show was set to start.
'30 seconds?' Sarah asked before trying to clean up the mess.
James is seen shaking off his laptop and jokes: 'You get a new Karlos and this is what happens.'
'Quick everybody, all hands on deck,' Sarah said as she continued to wipe down her desk.
Viewers reacted to the video, with one jokingly commenting: 'Perfect way to start a Monday.'
'Definitely need towels on standby from now on lol,' another person wrote.
It comes as Sarah's co-host Karl Stefanovic is currently enjoying a European holiday with his wife Jasmine.
On Friday, the couple attended chicken heiress Tamie Ingham and Guillaume Brahimi's wedding in Paris.
Karl and Jasmine, who married in 2018, introduced their respective friends Guillaume and Tamie to each other in 2020.
The 'socialite wedding of the year' included many guests from Australia's showbiz, business, and media circles.
At both the pre-wedding event and the lavish day, several stars took to Instagram and social media to share their own special moments.
