On The One Show tonight (January 23), Matt Baker and Alex Jones were joined by Julia Bradbury and her mother Chrissie for a chat. The pair were discussing ITV series The Greek Islands with Julia Bradbury and their favourite locations from the series. However, once their conversation ended and the BBC show came to a close, Alex and Matt found themselves in the middle of a rather awkward blunder.
In the final moments of tonight’s episode, Alex and Matt began reading out tweets from BBC viewers.
Alex began: “Some great reactions to our stories this week, we’re just gonna read a few now.
“LauraLayLyrics says on Twitter a ‘warm and fluffy feeling watching The One Show, the girl and her brother need their own TV show, they’re brilliant. Lovely to see something positive on TV.’
“Of course we had Isabella and Lucas on last night who were lovely.”

Matt then introduced a short clip of the aforementioned siblings as Isabella met One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson.
However, it was after the short clip ended that the tweet-reading segment was abruptly cut short.
Alex turned to her co-host and said: “It’s one of the best moments we’ve had ever, very, very nice.”
She followed this up by asking Matt: “Go on then, have you got one there?”
At this point, Matt had to turn to his co-host and say: “No, we’re going to have to say goodbye because we’re running out time.”
Alex then looked through her cue cards with, what was presumably, the rest of the reactions that she wasn’t allowed to read out before conceding: “Alright then.”
Matt and his guests shared a laugh as the segment came to a rather awkward close before Alex signed off the show.
Alex said: “Well that’s it for tonight then, thanks to Julia and to Chrissie.”
