    After discussing what the pairs' guilty pleasures for snacks to eat while they walked the immensely long journey, where the pair admitted they enjoyed tucking into pork pies, cakes and big fry-up breakfasts, Charlie couldn't help making a cheeky dig.

    Wrapping up the interview, Charlie said: "It is very important work and good luck with the fundraising."

    Looking at Tim, he said: "You're looking very well by the way, you not so much," as he nodded at Jon.

    Luckily he took it right way and laughed and said: "Yeah I put two stone on."

    Naga quickly interjected as she said: "How rude, you both look fabulous."

    Charlie added: "We all know why you're doing it, and it is so important, but you're manifestly enjoying yourself along the way but go easy on the pork pies."

    The cheeky comment came after Naga Munchetty abruptly ended a conversation with her co-star Charlie Stayt during Friday's edition of the news programme.

    The pair had been discussing a new story about the perfect way to boil an egg to ensure your preferences with runniness are met, with Charlie reading the story from the paper.

    Naga appeared to grow bored of the segment as Charlie revealed that Nigella Lawson advised putting the egg into cold, whereas Jamie Oliver said that he preferred to drop the egg into boiling water to cook it properly.

    Abruptly cutting off the chat, Naga quickly said: "I'd like to read that," as Charlie finished his sentence, to which the surprised host said: "Okay," and let her take the newspaper from him.
