Hilary Barry has explained to the nation why she always "sniggers" when announcing the show following Seven Sharp on Tuesday nights - Outback Truckers.
Her clarification was prompted by a Seven Sharp viewer simply known as Phil who contacted the show with his own theory as to why she struggles to say Outback Truckers with a straight face.
"Why do you have to snigger each time when you are re-signing off and introducing "Outback Truckers"??
"Is it because its just about the only show on TV that’s predominantly for men and one of a very few that DOESN’T have a dolled up, smart mouthed uppity tart in a leading roll???... just curious," Phil's message read.
At the end of tonight's show Hilary addressed Phil's concerns before announcing Outback Truckers.
"I just want to say that's not the reason, it's just that I don't want to slip up on one particular word and have a tidal wave of Broadcasting Standards Authority complaints," Hilary said.
Hilary previously tweeted about the incident with a clarification but this is the first time she has brought it up on TV.
