"Obviously we're not going to be 'Treacle Treating' or having parties in our different households so what I've done is I've created an amazing party full of 'Treacle Treats', it's going to be amazing," Alison told viewers.

"Treacle Treat?" a bewildered Phil asked.

"Is is not Treacle Treat?" Alison responded as crew members could be heard laughing.

"Not treacle. Trick or treat," Phil explained.

"No way," a stunned Alison said, adding: "Are you serious? I am 45 years old - I never knew that, I thought it was Treacle Treat."
