Yvette Fielding joined them to talk about her new children’s book and spoke about her career in ghost hunting.
At one point, Tommy pointed out how jumpy Muireann is, with everyone on set creeping up behind her at different times to frighten her.
He said: “I don’t know how you would cope with [ghost hunting].”
She agreed and said: “Alan [sneaks up on] me all the time and I freak out.”
The conversation continued with Yvette speaking about when Boyzone and Louis Walsh joined them on an investigation for an episode of Most Haunted.
However, as Tommy tried to move the conversation on, he was interrupted. The two hosts screamed as Alan Hughes jumped up from behind the couch. Even Yvette seemed to get a fright.
Muireann lived up to the description of her being an easy person to scare as she got up from the seat to calm down. She then lay on the studio floor.
Tommy later joked: “I think I need to go get changed.”
Yvette even admitted that Alan had frightened her, even though the hosts thought she was in on it.
