She said: “I’ve got a theory at my age, draw the eye away from this,” as she gestured towards her face and body.

Fay continued: “I think at the extremes – hat, glittery gloves, big shoes.

“Because it makes everyone go, ‘hello!’, and they look down.”

Lorraine said: “Brilliant. Are they actually comfy?”

Fay said: “Yes, they’re so comfy and I’ll show you my matching toes,” as she whipped her shoe off to unveil her lime green painted toenails.

However, Fay revealed she suffered a fall in her platform shoes.

She explained: “That wasn’t a good look, on the bus. I have to walk fairly steadily, like a deep sea diver.

“It’s good when I’m standing still!”

On Twitter, viewers had seriously mixed reactions to Fay’s shoes.
