The One Show host Alex Jones was forced to say sorry to guest Bobby Brazier after the EastEnders star called her out on an error in May.
Bobby, who took time out from the soap to participate on Strictly last year, appeared on The One Show on May 1 to promote his return to Albert Square.
The actor was set to make a comeback as Freddie Slater with the character Big Mo, who hasn’t appeared on EastEnders for over a year.
Alex Jones says sorry on The One Show
Ahead of his interview on the couch, Alex said: “In a moment, we’ll be joined by Bobby Brazier as his character, Freddie Mitchell, gets ready to return to Albert Square. But first, let’s look at his story so far…”
However, after the montage played, Bobby called out Alex’s blunder. Not realising her mistake, Bobby said he portrays Freddie Slater, not Freddie Mitchell.
Well, now, that is an error, isn’t it? A big apology Bobby!
“By the way, by the way, it’s Freddie Slater not Freddie Mitchell! Freddie Mitchell doesn’t exist, who is that?” he said.
Alex responded: “Well, now, that is an error, isn’t it? A big apology Bobby!”
“Come on now!” Bobby quipped.
During the interview, Bobby joked about learning his lines. This made Alex’s co-host Jermaine Jenas quip that he and Alex have that issue “all the time”.
“Yeah, I mean, Freddie Mitchell!” Bobby replied. In on the joke, Alex said: “You know what I mean!”

Meanwhile, later on Instagram, Bobby joked he would never appear on the show again after he was left out of praising. At the end of the show, Alex and Jermaine read out some viewer comments.
The comments were praising fellow guest Rebel Wilson. However, they didn’t have time to read out comments about Bobby.
Sharing a clip of the moment on his Instagram Stories, Bobby joked: “Liberty mate, never doing The One Show again,” followed by a laughing face emoji.
