Behind-the-scenes of The One Show, Alex Jones shares what would cause her to be cancelled on a large scale.
Alex Jones, the charming host of The One Show, recently shared a funny quip about the consequences of her rehearsals for the beloved BBC program ever being leaked. The 47-year-old Welsh presenter has been a staple on the show since 2010, alongside a variety of co-hosts such as Matt Baker, Jermaine Jenas, Ronan Keating, and Roman Kemp.

Despite being at the forefront of a family-friendly show, Alex revealed that she has to be careful about what she says before going live on air. In fact, she joked that her rehearsals can be quite disastrous, and if they were ever made public, she would surely face some serious consequences.

But despite the potential for mishaps, Alex finds the thrill of presenting live to be exhilarating and keeps her on her toes. During a recent appearance at Ferne Cotton's Happy Place Festival, she shared, "I love live television because it keeps you alive. The danger of doing a job for that long is you become complacent, but the live element keeps it fresh."

She also debunked the misconception that The One Show is pre-recorded, stating that it is entirely live and unedited. And while she may make mistakes, Alex doesn't feel the pressure to be perfect. Instead, she has a special "BBC filter" that she puts in place about five minutes before the show goes live.

But as she's been on the show for so long, Alex feels comfortable and at home on set. She shared, "It's like a home from home. The BBC would literally have to push me out if they ever wanted to replace me."

Despite her best efforts, there have been moments where Alex has faced some hilarious blunders on live TV. One such instance was when Dame Prue Leith, of The Great British Bake Off fame, let slip some colorful language about her husband, retired fashion designer John Playfair.

Alex was left gasping and giggling in shock, as were her co-hosts and guests, as well as viewers watching at home. But she quickly regained her composure and joked, "Well Prue Leith, you can't say that on The One Show! It's a family show!"

These unexpected moments are what make live TV so exciting for Alex, and she wouldn't have it any other way. The One Show airs weekdays at 7pm on BBC One, and if you have a celebrity story, video, or pictures, get in touch with The Agency entertainment team.
