The mini blue boots had orange soles and were covered in rockets and stars. Holding them up to the camera, Ben told Naga and Charlie that he was "on a mission" to find a pair in his size.

"They're very cute," Naga confessed. But Charlie couldn't resist making a little dig at his co-star, asking: "That's not your size, Ben?" Chuckles could be heard from the studio as Ben responded: "Well I could try but we'll be here a long time."

Back on the red sofa, Naga told Charlie: "There's foot damage all over that trying to squeeze those in." Naga added: "You're very cheeky."
