Celebrity Traitors stars Kate Garraway and Clare Balding couldn't resist revisiting their dramatic roundtable clash during this mornings episode of Good Morning Britain, as they halted an interview to discuss the BBC show . The pair, who both played Faithfuls, were wrongly accused of being Traitors and ultimately banished from the game. Clare appeared on the news show to discuss her new book, but the conversation got off to a rocky start when Kate mistakenly referred to it as a 'bonk buster.' Host Ed Balls said: "She's written her first novel for adults which Kate says is a bonk buster." Kate quickly interrupted him, stating: "I did not say that! I was told that. Look, don't start trouble between Clare and I all over again. It wasn't me who said that Clare . I'd like to assure you, that was the impression we got from the producers." Clare clarified: "No, that's because Jilly Cooper told me to write it but it's not a bonk buster. It's about love and faith and trust." As the conversation turned to the novel, Kate asked: "Did you like writing it? Because I always think of you doing stuff that's fact-based." After Clare teased her for saying "doing stuff," the conversation quickly shifted to a heated discussion about Celebrity Traitors. Kate told the viewers: "You can see what it was like. Can I just say, Clare was the first person in Celebrity Traitors to say that I was suspicious and you can see how she is. I'm at the roundtable all over again." Clare interjected "She kept arguing with me Ed, she kept arguing if somebody put your name down - I never put your name down." To which Kate shot back: "But you told everyone you thought it was me?" When Clare acknowledged she had said that at the roundtable, Kate replied: "Jonathan and David both said it was you. Let's carry on." However, Clare interrupted again: "If we're going to go on who you should trust, if it's a choice between me and Jonathan, stick with me Kate." Ed, who was clearly confused got involved, asking: "What is going on? This is better than watching on the TV!" Although he attempted to steer the conversation back to Clare’s book, the sports broadcaster wasn’t ready to let go of the Traitors discussion just yet, the Mirror reports. "I'm going to make a point, I'm going to make a point - is that alright?" she said. "It's about the roundtable and it's how you make voices heard. Because I believe all the time that sport is bigger than just the game being played, I think Celebrity Traitors is bigger than the game being played." Claire continued: "Whether you're in cabinet meetings, shadow cabinet meetings, whether you're in school staff meetings, team sports and you've got the big discussion point, whether you're in the boardroom. Wherever you are in a team, how do you make your voice heard without being shut down but also how do you make sure all voices are being listened to equally." "We defer and we defer on the basis that the deference is to education, gender, age, it's to a tone of voice. And comedy means you can get away with a lot but Joe Wilkinson said something interesting about that anytime he said something, it was like he was talking in lower case." She added: "I think there were a lot of occasions for women in particular who find they're talking in lower case and no one is necessarily listening."
