As you can imagine, the slip-up was quickly shared across social media, and was greeted with just a bit of incredulity:

Tomlinson has apologised for the gaffe following the outcry, saying it was “a slip of the tongue” at the “end of a long, late shift”.

“Am so mortified,” she tweeted. “In 18 years of live TV, it’s up there with my worst moments.”

Ah Clare. You’re grand.
