The One Show is thrown into chaos as producers forced to step in to clear up ‘row’
THE One Show was thrown into chaos after producers were forced to step in to clear up a ‘row’.
Wednesday’s show saw Alex Jones and Jermaine Jenas joined by comedian and host of The Great British Sewing Bee, Sara Pascoe.
Discussing the current series of the BBC show, she said: “90’s week is next week.
“That was my favourite, I was really into it. I said ‘Wasssuuuppp’ a lot!”
However, Jermaine argued that the iconic phrase – which first came to the public’s attention in a Budweiser advert – was actually from the noughties.
Sara was surprised and replied: “Okay, I think we are going to need an edit!”
As the trio debated whether it was 90s or 00s, Jermaine asked viewers to get in touch to confirm who was right, while Sara joked: “We’re too old now!”
Later, Alex brought the matter up again and said: “By the way because people at home were like ‘was it the 90’s?’, it was!”
But Jermaine was adamant replying: “No, no, no, it was the noughties!”
Alex laughed awkwardly as she said: “Oh sorry I wasn’t listening properly!”
The three stars continued to debate the date, before Alex looked into the camera and asked one of The One Show producers off camera to confirm when the phrase was first used.
There was then an awkward pause in the studio as the producers in the gallery fact checked before giving Alex the answer in her ear piece.
She then said: “20th December 99, we’re right,” while Jermaine pointed out just how close he was to being correct, saying: “You can JUST have it, alright!”
The One Show airs weeknights at 7pm on BBC One.
