BBC Breakfast host Naga Munchetty was quick to take a cheeky swipe after learning Matt Tebbutt had been replaced as Saturday Kitchen host.
On the BBC news show's crossover to the foodie extravaganza, she chatted to stand-in Donal Skehan, who was in charge of proceedings on the weekly programme instead.
As the Irish food writer and cook, 38, joked how Saturday Kitchen had "got rid" of much-loved frontman Matt, Naga, 50, then added the catty comment: "Well done."
A giggling Donal said: "Finally, finally. He'll be thrilled to hear that."
He then welcomed Gavin and Stacey star Ruth Jones, 58, onto the series, where she revealed her food heaven was chicken - and watermelon took the accolade of her food hell.
BBC Breakfast's Naga and Matt, 51, are known for exchanging banter on the Saturday Kitchen preview segment - delighting fans with their quips along the way.
