On Wednesday’s instalment of Loose Women, the ITV panellists spoke to presenter Mel Giedroyc about her upcoming reality show.
Former Bake Off star Mel Giedroyc was less than impressed with one member of the studio audience when appearing on Loose Women.
During Wednesday’s show, the 56-year-old was speaking about holidays as Kaye Adams questioned if she’d been away with friend and former co-star Sue Perkins.
She replied: “We did! We did our one and only skiing holiday together when we were 30, we’d been nagged by a really good friend of ours, who is a very good skier-”
However, someone in the live studio audience seemed to grab her attention as she was quick to point them out.
Mel said: “You can stop yawning in the front row now!” The panel and audience burst into laughter as Mel tried to continue on with her holiday tale.
She continued: “This is a very good and exciting story about Sue and I going skiing together 26 years ago, thank you.”
Making it clear to the person she was joking, Mel called them lovely before adding: “It is a boring story, I’ll give you that!”
Carrying on with the holiday story, Mel revealed that she and Sue were the only two people on the trip who were in ski school as their friends were all experienced.
Mel said: “Now, I don’t want to be smug, but I was quite good.”
Questioning whether or not Sue was any good, Mel confessed her friend was terrible, prompting the audience to burst out laughing.
She added: “It was probably really annoying but I was going, ‘Wahey’ and going down the slopes, and poor old Perks’ was not.
“She was cross, she was cross with me. I’m competitive, the two of us are competitive so it was awks. We laugh about it a lot now.”
The 56-year-old told the Loose Women panel she doesn’t think people will see Sue on the ski slopes anytime soon.
Talking about their long-running friendship, Mel had nothing but kind words to say as she told Kaye “I love her!”
Elsewhere in the show, the former Bake Off star touched on menopause with the panellist as Mariella Frostrup asked how it’s been for her.
Immediately saying it was “terrible”, Mel added: “Well no, that’s a bit dramatic”
When asked if she was on HRT, Mel confessed she was using a gel along with pills to handle her symptoms.
She quipped: “Gelling is great, I love my gel time!”
