Michael McIntyre show viewers confused by small detail in Chris Ramsey's bedroom

A small detail in Chris Ramsey's bedroom caught the attention of Michael McIntyre's Big Show viewers over the weekend, which prompted speculation from his fans.

Stand-up comedian Chris, 36, featured in Saturday's episode of the BBC show and was the latest celebrity to be surprised by Michael McIntyre, 46, for its 'Midnight Gameshow' segment.

It saw host Michael sneak into the fellow comedian's bedroom to wake him up and play a game, with Chris' wife Rosie Ramsey, 36, having been part of it. The segment included Chris having to answer questions whilst placed in various holds by MMA fighter Tom Aspinall, 29.

Some viewers however noticed a small red button above the couple's bed, which left them baffled. A number of them took to Twitter and Instagram to share their confusion.

One viewer tweeted over the weekend: "The midnight game show [was] brilliant. However, we all want to know what the red button is for above the bed?"

Another said: "The red button?? What's it for and has it always been there???" A third wrote: "Really intrigued about the red button!?!? A fourth said: "Can [Chris] put us all out of our misery and tell us what the red button is for?"

Another wrote: "What's the red button for? I need to know. I dunno why but please." Whilst one viewer took to social media to write: "That's what I was thinking the whole time."

Another said: "Couldn't stop looking at the red button. Please tell us." Whilst one viewer wrote: "Glad I'm not the only one who clocked the red button by the bed!"

Some fans have speculated that it's a panic button, with one person tweeting: "I believe its an old panic alarm system. My parents have the exact same one in their house".

Another said: "Panic button for burglar alarm!" Whilst a third wrote: "Probably a panic alarm". A fourth commented on social media recently: "It is a standard panic button".

"Wondered if it was a panic button?," suggested another viewer in response to the episode. They weren't alone in speculating about the possible purpose of the red button.

Chris has said that him and Rosie will discuss the experience on their podcast (BBC)

Chris and Rosie don't appear to have addressed the speculation. He's however said they will be discussing the episode on their podcast Sh**ged Married Annoyed.

He tweeted: "Hope you all enjoyed The Midnight Gameshow! We'll be discussing it on this coming Friday's [podcast episode] IN FULL! [...] Thanks for all the lovely comments about it".

Michael McIntyre's Big Show continues on Saturday from 6.50pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
