As they chuckled they then proceeded to show pictures of members of the BBC Breakfast team back in the 80s for viewers to guess who was who.

It turned out to be Ben, and he joked: "Look at that carpet, look at the TV, that's my gran's cat Lucy."
A little later, a dark haired girl in a denim shirt dress popped up and Ben said: "Look at that pose, that's a full 80s pose."
Sally replied: "Do you think that's an 80s pose?"
It was then revealed the picture was of her and she said: "I still love a shirt dress."
Ben joked about her pose: "It's being told you're not allowed to move because the camera won't work if you move."
Taking to Twitter, one viewer replied: "Great old photos with Carol @carolkirkwood & @NinaWarhurst very easy to spot.
"I was 25 when the 80s started. It was a great care free decade and I still have not grown up. Thank you #BBCBreakfast for a little fun amid all the sad news in the world."
