BBC The One Show halted minutes into episode as Alex Jones says 'we should finish'

The One Show host Alex Jones was left saying "we should finish" just minutes into Friday's (May 9) episode, following a guest's touching confession.

In the latest instalment of the popular show, Alex and her co-presenter Roman Kemp discussed the day's hot topics and spoke to actor Robson Green, TV star Dannii Minogue, and boxer Chris Eubank Jr.

The programme kicked off with Roman speaking to Newcastle United fan Robson about his team's Carabao Cup triumph in March, which marked the end of a 70-year drought for domestic trophies.

"Now, Robson, we're going to be talking a great moment in sporting history with Chris later on about the fight, but the moment we want to talk about with you, Newcastle," Roman began.

"70 years without a domestic trophy, a massive moment for you," reports .

Robson humorously responded: "You've got to remember, the last time for me Newcastle won a trophy, King Harold still had two eyes, but they did it."

He continued: "It wasn't just Wembley, Newcastle rocked it. It was amazing, and with Dan Burn getting that header, it was just fantastic."

Robson went on to share that he had a ticket to witness the game live with Newcastle icon, Alan Shearer, but his filming commitments with the BBC prevented him from attending.

"What was amazing when we won, I went to ring my dad, and my father died in 2009. I went to ring him, that's what it meant, it was so important, so moving," Robson emotionally disclosed.

"That's what it is, that's what football can do," Roman observed, with Robson adding: "One city, one club. That's what we are. It was amazing, and now that emotional valve has been opened up. It was fantastic, very special."

An emotional Alex then remarked, "Gosh, I think we should finish the show there, that was such a nice line," which was followed by Dannii admitting, "It wiped us out!"

Robson appeared on the show to discuss his new drama with Jason Watkins, titled The Game. The drama is described as a "cat and mouse thriller" and is set to premiere on Monday (May 12).

The plot revolves around a police detective who is tormented by an elusive case that was left unsolved.

The One Show airs weeknights on BBC One at 7pm
