Speaking about 'people who go cruising', the entertainer made a hilarious innuendo about the holiday: 'I got taken up the Danube' as she commented on those who enjoyed seeing the world by sea.
Despite leaving her former colleagues and audience members laughing, she discussed her new musical venture, Hold The Covers Back, and possible appearance in a new musical.
She quipped: 'I’ve been writing for quite a few years, I think I’ve been pigeonholed as a covers artist but I’ve been performing my own songs for years.
'I’ve got a few sort of things lined up. I hate when I can’t say things!'

It's not the first time Jane has comeback to the lunchtime show, having made a quick re-appearance on the panel in 2015.
Although glad to be back in the hot seat for the day, the TV star - who first found fame on 1998's BBC show The Cruise - has been busy with a number of other projects.
Most recently, Jane has toured the country extensively, appeared on ITV's Sugar Free Farm, starred in Cats and has done her own cruise-style travel show since quitting.
