Courtney told Terry: 'On my Christmas playlist every year.'

Terry replied: 'I saw you on YouTube, saying it was one of your favourite songs!'

Courtney then asked: 'I know someone, Bret, he's friends with my actor friend. The guy from East 17 that manages bands, what's his name?'

Jamali Maddix cut in, saying: 'I feel like I'm at a bust stop,' with everyone bursting into laughter.'

East 17 comprised of Brian Harvey, Tony Mortimer and John Hendy, enjoyed hits such as Stay Another Day, Deep and Steam.

It comes after it was revealed  Daisy May Cooper is taking a step back from being a team captain on the show.

The music-themed quiz will see actor and comedian Greg Davies return as host with team captains, Noel Fielding and regular panelist, Jamali Maddix also set to return.

However Daisy will be replaced by Sophie Willan on the show until the This Country actress returns for the Christmas Special.

On Sophie joining, Greg said:  She is just very natural and very silly and, like Daisy, is just capable of rolling with the punches.

'She’s very naturally funny. She’s also the first from Bolton to befriend Nelly Furtado. I think that’s a fair statement. 

When asked if Sophie is as competitive as Daisy, he added: 'I don’t think either of them are even remotely competitive, but I think they occasionally pretend.'

Joining the captains will b celebrities from the world of music and comedy, as each of the specials will have a theme, the Nineties, Noughties, Rock and Girl and Boy Bands.

The team captains will be joined by guests including Spice Girl Mel B for the Nineties episode.

Little Mix star Perrie Edwards will join for Girl & Boy Bands special while for the noughties episode cultural icon and frontwoman of The Gossip Beth Ditto will make an appearance.

Previously the likes of Little Mix’s Jade Thirwall, Shaggy, Pete Doherty, Ellie Goulding, Suggs and Hannah Waddingham have made guest appearances on the Sky series.

Of the new series, host Greg Davies said: 'I am genuinely thrilled to be returning to the mayhem of Buzzcocks but realistically who reads these press quotes and why? 

'Watch the show please and in-between episodes get out into the air, talk to your partner, read to your children. Live, for god's sake live.'
