James Corden baffles Saturday Night Takeaway fans with 'posh' accent

James Corden thoroughly confused Saturday Night Takeaway fans tonight with his "posh" accent this evening.

The Late Late Show host James, 41, appeared on the ITV show today via video link as Ant and Dec played the moment they managed to prank him back in 2016.

Asked how he was faring in isolation, he said: "The same for all of us, isn't it? There are no days anymore. You're awake and then you're asleep."

James insisted that he did have fond memories of the prank, but said: "I remember thinking oh my goodness, they got me proper."

While another commented: "Omg James cordon sounded so posh in his interview with ant and dec #SaturdayNightTakeaway."
