Stephen Mulhern couldn't help but point out the reaction from Emmerdale star Kevin Mathurin after it was revealed his soap family could have looked very different.
The presenter was hosting the annual ITV special, The Big Soap Quiz: Coronation Street v Emmerdale at the time. It sees cast members from both soaps go head to head to see who knows theirs best.
This year, Corrie's team captain Jack P Shepherd was joined by Channique Sterling-Brown and Tony Maudsley, with the trio known for playing David Platt, Dee-Dee Bailey and George Shuttleworth on the cobbles.
Meanwhile, Emmerdale team captain, Marlon Dingle legend Mark Charnock, was joined by Kevin and Natalie Ann Jamieson, who play Charles Anderson and Amy Wyatt in the Dales.
