The One Show's Alex Jones has jumped on the Threads bandwagon. The new social media app has been created by Facebook and Instagram owners Meta, and went live on Thursday, July 6.
It is linked to Instagram but allows users to post up to 500 characters of text and up to five minutes of video and links, as well as pictures. Revealing she was trying to navigate the new platform, Welsh presenter Alex shared that she'd been banned from Twitter.
"Just on the way home and messing about on Threads," she told her Instagram followers after hosting Thursday's episode of The One Show. "Roman Kemp is my new social guru and he said 'Come on Al just have a go,' so yeah."
