Captioning the video: "Just done this @givebloodnhs with one of favourite blood takers @willflanders. And a record time for me of 5 mins 21 secs for approx 0.5l Woo hoo!" the TV host received hundreds of messages of support.

She said: "Hello it's that time again, buttock clenching, leg raising, arm squeezing, giving blood today.

"I am with my lovely friend Ross who is now used to my skinny veins and makes it absolutely painless.

"I reckon six and a half, seven minutes, I will be done, I will be out and I will be enjoying the rest of my day.

"If you can give blood and you want to give blood, just know you are doing a good thing. Anyway, see you on BBC Breakfast."

Fans rushed to shower the presenter with praise as one user said: "Thank you so much. You are a lifesaver."

Another said: "Good on you Naga. I used to go with my Mum in the 1970s when she used to give blood. I faint when I have a blood test so just can't do it - but I make sure I do other things to help out, such as volunteering within the NHS. My Dad wouldn't have been alive, today, as a sprightly 85 year old if he hadn't had 7 blood transfusions following an RTC back in the 70s."

One fan added: "You're a champ! Thank you."

A fourth wrote: "Great job Naga!!"

Most people can give blood if you are fit and healthy, weigh between 7st and 12lbs and 25st, aged between 17 and 66 or are over 70 and have given blood in the last two years.
