TV presenter Alex Jones has spoken about some brilliant life and career moments while appearing on the How To Fail With Elizabeth Day podcast, including locking King Charles in a toilet and fellow TV star Davina McCall invigilating some of her university exams. The One Show host spoke very candidly to podcast host, journalist and author Elizabeth Day about some of her career mishaps.
Alex explained to Elizabeth that she had been working for an independent television company when she accidentally locked King Charles, then Prince Charles, in the toilet. The company had received a grant to help youth in a deprived area in south Wales and create a space where young people could learn about and receive opportunities in the media.
King Charles came to open the venue which Alex told was by a river that did not smell very nice and which you could smell in the men's toilets. Alex said she "took the initiative" to lock the men's toilets so that Prince Charles didn't go into the smelly toilets.
