As the presenters discussed the newspaper headlines of the day, Sally picked out a health story which claimed men who consume more eggs are happier, according to a recent study. She explained: "Apparently, eating eggs, particularly for men can make you less angry," to which Jon jokingly shouted: "What!"

"That's difficult to say," Sally quipped as Jon attempted to continue on with the report.
