The One Show Launches WhatsApp Contact Feature

Alex Jones, host of BBC's The One Show, recently shared a hospital ordeal involving her son, causing her to miss an episode, though she returned shortly after without addressing it on air. She praised the hospital staff on social media but provided no details about her son's condition. The One Show has announced a new development for 2025, introducing a WhatsApp contact option for viewer engagement, a feature revealed by Alex and co-host Lauren Laverne. Guests like Dame Prue Leith and Mark Williams appeared in the episode discussing various topics. The show continues to air weekdays at 7pm on BBC One.
