The beloved morning programme saw the two presenters cover the top news stories on Friday.
Beyond Paradise stars Barbara Flynn and Jamie Bamber featured on the show and host Charlie dropped into the conversation that Nina used to act.
‘Nina has also been an actor, do you know this?’ the presenter chimed in.
Barbara confirmed she knew which surprised Nina who asked: ‘Oh. Do you?’ to which the actress replied, ‘Yes, I do’.
‘It was a very long time ago,’ Nina explained.

Chris then went on to tease, ‘Would you like to see a little bit of Nina’s acting?’
Nina exclaimed: ‘What! How have you done this without me knowing?’
PH๏τographs of Nina’s acting days were they displayed on the screen and the presenter explained what they were.
“This is Casualty Christmas special back in 1997,’ she said before joking, ‘You can just see the acting in my eyes and you can now see why I moved into journalism.’
Nina quipped: ‘Anyway, thanks for that Charlie,’ to which her co-host replied laughing, ‘Well it would be a shame not to.’
During the same episode, Adolescence star Christine Tremarco suffered a wardrobe malfunction live on air.
She starred as Manda Miller in the popular Netflix series which follows the story of a teenage boy, played by newcomer Owen Cooper, who was accused of murdering a female classmate.
Each episode was filmed in a single continuous take and is a chilling depiction of radicalisation and incel culture involving young boys.
Charlie asked the actress if things went wrong during shooting due to the nature of the filming technique.
‘Things happened in episode one, the lights went out in the studio – I think that was my ring – things go wrong,’ she said laughing as her ring flew off her hand and landed on the table mid-sentence.

“This is Casualty Christmas special back in 1997,’ she said before joking, ‘You can just see the acting in my eyes and you can now see why I moved into journalism.’
Christine continued: ‘The lights went out in the studio and it was in the interview scenes but the cast just carried on.
‘But then it had to cut because the lights had gone out but they just sort of improvised around the lights going off again.
‘Or a door was shut once in episode four when a camera was coming through and the door was meant to be a bit open, things like that.’
The trio then continued to talk about the powerful message behind Adolescence and at the end of the interview, Charlie hurriedly picked up Christine’s ring for her.
‘Nice to see you here this morning, thank you very much. Shall I just recover your, shall I just get that for you… throwing your arms around so much, that’s what happens,’ the presenter said as he handed Christine the jewellery.
‘Anything can happen,’ the hosts joked.
