Matt Baker and Alex Jones have been marking the One Show’s 10th anniversary this week – but they were completely thrown when they asked guest Al Murray how his life had changed in the last decade.
The comedian separated from his wife Amber Hargreaves in 2008, and it seems he didn’t enjoy being reminded about it.
So… he made things awkward.
"What's the biggest change to your life in last 10 years?" His response? "I got divorced, ðððð @almurray #oneshow what way to start the show

The BBC current affairs programme is taking the time to look back on the best of their 2110 shows so far – with Angela Rippon and Joe Crowley joining to look back on their favourite moments.
Viewers were also treated to a clip of Matt tap-dancing in 2013 as he said goodbye to Television Centre, leaving him squirming in his seat – again.
