The heir to the British throne and his wife Camilla gave it a try on Thursday, each reading out weather reports during a visit to BBC studios in Glasgow, Scotland.
The sight of the nattily dressed Charles giving a credible performance in the unfamiliar role caused many Britons to do a double-take as he read the lunchtime news weather spot.
Palace officials say Charles and Camilla were visiting the studios to mark the 60-year anniversary of BBC TV Scotland.
