The One Show fans were left seriously distracted by Catherine Zeta-Jones 'unreal' appearance as she shared her fear about working with Joanna Lumley in the Netflix hit Wednesday.
Catherine, 55, who plays Morticia Addams in the supernatural mystery comedy, appeared on Tuesday's instalment of the BBC show to talk about the highly anticipated second series.
Alex Jones, 51, and JB Gill, 38, returned to our screens to interview the actress alongside her co-star Luis Guzman, who plays her husband Gomez Addams in the show.
Catherine looked glamorous in a blue low cut blouse, sparkly green skirt and accessorised with some jewellery.
She styled her dark locks from out of her face and rocked a smokey eye look.
Meanwhile Luis opted for a smart casual black shirt and matching trousers.

Those watching at home were in awe of Catherine's appearance.
One said on X, formerly known as Twitter: 'Catherine Zeta Jones looks unreal.'
'Catherine Zeta Jones is morphing into Morticia Addams.'
'I read people talking about CZJ, but didn't realise she was on the screen until she spoke. #TheOneShow.'
'F**k me I swear she never ages!'
Wednesday fans don't have long to wait until the show returns to the streaming service as it's back on August 6.
Jenna Ortego will be reprising her role as protagonist Wednesday Adams, and she will be joined by Victor Dorobantu as Thing, as well as Uncle Fester star Fred Armisen.
The likes of Isaac Ordonez will be back as Pugsley, but there is one star who is joining the cast as a newbie.
Joanna Lumley has taken on the role of Morticia's mum Grandmama Hester Frump.
Many rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their amazement over Catherine's appearance
Catherine opened up about what it was like to work with Joanna, who has starred in the likes of Absolutely Fabulous, Motherland, Fool Me Once and Finding Alice.
She told the hosts: 'You have no idea! On an international Dame Joanna is admired, revered. But for me, being a Brit being a Welsh girl like you Alex,for me it was like, my Queen.
'I'd never met her, I'd never worked with her, and there was a time where I thought, "Maybe I shouldn't".
'Because I'd be devastated if she's not the kind of woman or artist you know, sharing as an actor. She was everything and more.'
Catherine added: 'So, now we have my character Morticia, and we have this fantastic relationship between Wednesday and the matriarch.
'Now comes Joanna's character, Grandma Frump, and we have that dynamic. We have this triangle of three generations of kooky, crazy, wonderful women, and it was a treat.'
On Tuesday Netflix gave Wednesday fans a first look at Billie Piper in her new role on the show, in which she will star alongside Jenna Ortega.
The gothic comedy, which follows the antics of Wednesday Addams (played by Ortega), debuted on the streaming service in November 2022. It was quickly renewed for a second series in January 2023.
Now, Netflix has unveiled Billie, 42, as Isadora Capri - a captivating new character at Nevermore Academy, where she serves as the school's head of music.
Described as a former child prodigy, Isadora is brilliant, intense, and enigmatic. She takes a special interest in Wednesday's musical talents and also mentors fellow werewolf Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers).
Billie's casting adds an intriguing layer to the series, given her background in supernatural and gothic roles, notably as Brona Croft / The Bride of Frankenstein in Penny Dreadful.
The new images come after Netflix revealed the future of Wednesday beyond the upcoming series two, and fans of the chart-topping show are all saying the same thing.
The One Show airs on BBC One from 7pm and is available to stream on iPlayer.
