Alex Jones left viewers of The One Show bemused by her distracting choice of attire as she hosted the BBC show with Roman Kemp.

The presenters welcomed a host of guests including Amercia Ferrera, Margot Robbie and Billy Porter during Thursday's edition of the programme but fans couldn't help but notice her snazzy coordinated outfit.

Alex opted for a puffy-sleeved top with turquoise and white stripes while her matching trousers sported the same nautical pattern with a red stripe down her legs.

She finished off the look with red heeled sandals but viewers couldn't help but lightheartedly tease the presenter as they pointed out the pattern looked familiar.

One viewer tweeted: @theoneshow good to see @MissAlexjones wearing a recycled deckchair from #SewingBee. Fair play Alex!" And another added: "#TheOneShow what a clever use for old deck chair material."

"Never mind pink day for #barbie but @MissAlexjones has come dressed as a deck chair #oneshow #theoneshow @BBCTheOneShow," a third wrote. The bold look has proven to be a huge hit among TV stars with A Place in the Sun presenter Laura Hamilton taking to social media to show off the same two-piece.

Meanwhile, Alex announced on Thursday a huge shake-up to the BBC programme as Wimbledon and First Night of the Proms dominating the BBC One and Two schedules. The One Show is scheduled to return on Monday on BBC One at its usual time of 7pm.

Previously on The One Show, viewers were left confused when an A-List star pulled out of the programme at the last minute. Morgan Freeman had been scheduled to appear alongside his co-stars Nicole Kidman and Zoe Saldana as they promoted their new spy thriller Special Ops: Lioness.

But, Alex was forced to explain a last minute shake-up to the guest line-up. She said: "Honestly, we've seen a bit of [Special Ops: Lioness], it is brilliant. Morgan Freeman, also in it. He was gonna come tonight so we're gutted he couldn't make it last minute." It was subsequently confirmed that Morgan was forced to pull out of his UK trip due to illness.

Earlier this month, Alex reunited with ex Steve Jones on The One Show sofa, years on from their dramatic split. The two Welsh presenters were in a relationship from 1999 to 2002 when they both worked on Channel 4 show Rise, but split after Steve stole an interview with a Hollywood A-lister from Alex.

But the pair put any differences aside as Steve appeared on the BBC One show to promote his new book - even exchanging a few jokes and indulging in a bit of banter during the broadcast.
