The One Show ended on a high on Friday, February 17 as Emma Willis wished her co-host Jermaine Jenas a happy 40th birthday for the following day. After playing a video montage of the former footballer, Emma read out a number of messages that had been sent in and one was from his usual co-presenter, Alex Jones.
The 45-year-old from Ammanford said: "Oh my goodness, the sharpest dresser on the BBC is 40. We may never see eye to eye when it comes to football but you've become a very dear friend and I really enjoy sharing the sofa with you every week.
"Since our very first show together I was struck by how genuine and kind you are and I know that'll do nothing for your street cred but it is true. The happiest of birthdays and thank goodness you're finally joining Ro and I in the 40 club. Loads of love, Alex Jones."
