BBC The One Show’s Alex Jones and Jermaine Jenas speechless at guest Dan Stevens' scathing Boris Johnson dig

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Presenters on The One Show were stunned into silence on Wednesday night as guest star Dan Stevens made a ruthless comment about Prime Minister Boris Johnson, leaving viewers in shock.

Both Alex Jones and Jermaine Jenas looked visibly uncomfortable and were reeling after the remarks. The British actor was on the sofa to discuss his latest drama based on the Watergate scandal.

He didn’t hold back as he made an attack on the PM, only a day after the Tory leader was fined £50 for breaking lockdown rules by attending a party, Yorkshire Live reports.

Dan was chatting to presenters Alex and Jermaine and appeared to describe his new film when he said: “What you’ve got is a criminal for a leader who is wrapped up in a messy war, embroiled in a stupid scandal and surrounded by ambitious idiots and really should resign … I’m sorry that’s the intro to Boris Johnson, I've just said the intro to Boris Johnson."
