For today's cooking segment, chef Caryna Camerino joined the hosts in the studio to whip up a batch of fresh cinnamon buns.
Once they were ready, Alan and Siomha gave them a try - but the pair quickly burst out laughing as Alan made a cheeky remark about the noises they were making while eating.
As they tried the pastries, Siomha said: "I'm going to need a minute here."
Alan then added: "Yeah there's a lot of noise here. It's like when they kiss on Love Island and I hate it."

The presenters couldn't contain their laughter as they made "mmm" noises into their microphones, with Alan dragging out the sound for effect.
Alan added: "If you want to watch back on the 'mmm' you can sign up to Virgin Media Play or scan the QR code on the screen to enter online."
He then continued to make the noise while Siomha tried to move on and tell viewers what was coming up after the break.
Just before the show cut to a break, Siomha couldn't resist making the noise one last time.

He said: "We had Yasmin, Toni, Shakira - I had my run-ins with them. The thing is, it was all such silly things as well.
"Not using it as an excuse, but feelings and emotions are just so heightened. It's the littlest things that can trigger you."
ISLE SAY
Ben and Andrada have been continuing to get to know each other outside of the villa.
The Balbriggan beauty appeared on Ireland AM to speak about her experience.

Muireann O'Connell said to her: "It's really interesting because you go in there at Casa Amor so have less of a standing with the public and with Ben, now you've probably seen it from the outside, viewers are seeing some sort of mistreatment of women.
"Like telling Yasmin that she's irrelevant, that the audience are kind of sitting there going, 'Hold on a second, dude, this is… what are you up to?'.
"And you're kind of stuck in that situation... with him then, like, because he can kind of drag you down."
Andrada understood where Muireann was coming from but made sure to clear things up.

Ed Sheeran fans all say the same thing as 'superfan leaks' new song
Ed Sheeran fans have said that the singer is a genius after a 'superfan' ended up 'leaking' his new song. The Lego House singer will be releasing his latest album, Play, in September, and releasing three singles ahead of the album — including the hit Azizam. While no official title has come for the fourth single, it has been 'leaked' by Ed and a well known fan of his; only Rupert Grint, who played an obsessive Ed fan in the music video for Lego House. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ed Sheeran (@teddysphotos) In a post to his Instagram, Ed (who may or may not be currently involved in some hostage situation) sings the pre-chorus to the song before the camera cuts to Rupert, who begins lip syncing to the chorus, with fans delighted at the reunion 14 years later. 'Omg!!!!' one person commented, while another added 'video of the year already.' Ed's team also joked on Twitter (X) that his account was 'hacked 'and that the song was 'leaked' by Rupert — saying in a 'statement' 'We've been made aware that Ed's social media accounts have been accessed by an unknown party. Unreleased music has been posted on his profiles.' Ed Sheeran. Pic:for Coachella 'We have been working hard on securing the accounts, and from looking into this further we have managed to obtain a distorted picture of the person of interest who appears to be wearing an orange hoodie [a reference to the Lego House music video].' 'Relevant officials are now aware of the breach and our findings,' the faux statement added, before joking 'However, we have made the decision to keep the song up because it's a banger.' Ed recently spoke about his Irish heritage after he caused a heavy discussion online when he said he was 'culturally Irish,' with him revealing last month that he actually holds an Irish passport. Ed recently spoke about how he felt culturally Irish in a podcast appearance — later proving himself with an Irish passport. Pic: Leah Farrell/ After saying on the Louis Theroux podcast that he feels culturally Irish, Ed has expanded on his comments — saying that he was brought up around Irish culture, and has an Irish podcast (which was recently ranked the most powerful in the world, in case you missed it!). 'My dad is Irish. My family is Irish,' Ed wrote in an Instagram comment that he later shared on his story. 'I have an Irish passport. The culture I was brought up around in is Irish. The first music I learnt was Irish. 'Just coz I was born somewhere else doesn't change my culture, I can be allowed to feel connection to a place [that] half of my family is from.'

Medical secretary scoops €10,000 as she's named Best Dressed at Galway Races
A medical secretary at Galway University Hospital has scooped a whopping €10,000 and been named as this year's best-dressed lady at the Galway Races. Megan Cunniss from Galway wowed judges, including Mandy Maher and Lisa McGowan, with her monochrome dress and elegant hat. The 28-year-old won over the judges with her style, confidence, and individuality, whose look embodied the brand sponsors Ella & Jo ethos - bold, original, and completely her own. She told us: "I love vintage fashion, 1950s fashion. I love looking up Dior archives. I try to copy some of their looks and change it around and make it some of my own. Guest Judge Lisa McGowan, Judge Niamh Ryan, co-founder of Ella & Jo, Megan Cunniss, from Co Galway, who was crowned winner of the Ella & Jo Best Dressed Lady Competition on Ladies Day, and Head Judge Mandy Maher at the Galway Races Summer Festival "That was my inspiration. I designed the dress myself. I had it made in France, it was tailored in Galway by my dress maker, Gina's Sewing Services. We added more buttons to it, more black lining down around the edges. She's amazing." The mum-of-one is on a roll this summer, having also won Best Dressed in Dundalk a few weeks ago. "It was a different outfit," she said. Megan said that she hasn't any idea how she will spend her huge prize money. "It's a lot of money. It's life-changing to most people. I'm absolutely thrilled with the title. I love fashion. This is my style. "All my family came down and my glam team came down the night before to get me ready for the photos." More than 25,000 racegoers descended on Ballybrit for one of the most glamorous dates in the Irish social calendar on Thursday - and a landmark debut for Ella & Jo as new sponsors of the Ladies Day Best Dressed Competition. This year marked the beginning of a three-year partnership between the Galway Races and multi-award-winning Irish skincare brand Ella & Jo, a powerhouse in Irish beauty, known for championing real skin, real women, and real confidence. Designed by two women who understand the realities of modern life, Ella & Jo's high-performance, joy-filled skincare has become synonymous with self-expression and empowerment, making them the perfect partner for a day that celebrates women owning their style. 'I'm so proud to be part of an event that continues to shine a light on Irish style in such a vibrant and inclusive way,' said Mandy Maher. 'The creativity we saw today was off the charts.' Niamh Ryan added: 'Being part of the judging panel this year was incredibly special. "You could see how much joy, personality, and individuality went into every look — exactly what Ella & Jo is all about. "We were drawn to something real, something confident. The moment our winner stepped out, we all felt it.' Lisa McGowan, founder of Lisa & Co and Lisa's Lust List, recalled fond memories of ladies day after she was crowned Best Dressed herself in 2016. 'Ladies Day holds such a special place in my heart,' said Lisa. 'The standard this year was phenomenal, not just in terms of fashion, but in the presence behind the outfits. Our winner had that rare magic. "She didn't just wear the look, she owned it.' The prize for Best Hat went to Bride Butler from Thurles Co Tipperary, who won €3,000 for a standout piece by Michelle Kearns. Winner of the Best Hat Competition at Ladies Day was was Breda Butler from Tipperary and Winner of the Best Dressed Lady was Megan Cunniss from Galway at Ladies Day of the Galway Races Summer Festival sponsored by Ella & Jo The judges applauded the design for its originality, craftsmanship, and sheer presence. Thousands of ladies turned out for the fourth day of the races. Louise Murphy from Tramore in Waterford was almost left shoeless after her Manolo Blahnik heels got stuck in a rain drain at the Ballybrit racecourse.

It is 20 years since trainer Noel Meade saddled his most recent winner of the Ballybrit highlight in More Rainbows but he had come close on several occasions since, while Ndaawi's trainer Gordon Elliott had never won it previously. Helvic Dream, a Group One winner on the Flat for Meade in the 2021 Tattersalls Gold Cup, was an 8-1 shot in the hands of Donagh Meyler and settled down to fight it out with the 13-2 shot Ndaawi and Jack Kennedy in the home straight. However, the pair did come close together all the way up the run-in as both horses and jockeys gave their all, with Ndaawi short of room against the far rail, and while Helvic Dream passed the post a head in front the stewards felt the interference was significant enough to reverse the placings. Trainer Gordan Elliott said: "We have won most of the big handicaps so this is the race I wanted to win, although it is not a nice way to win. "Noel is one of my greatest friends and there isn't a day goes by that we don't talk and we have great banter, but that's the way it goes unfortunately. "The stewards have their jobs to do, Jack said it straightaway after the race and I was talking to Ruby (Walsh) as well and he felt we would definitely get it. It is unbelievable to win the two big races here this week and the horses have all run well, I can't believe it." Brian O'Keeffe, spokesperson for BOYLE Sports, said: 'It was a dramatic renewal of the Galway Hurdle and Helvic Dream losing it in the steward's room wasn't the best turn of events for us. We paid out on the revised winner Ndaawi and the first past the post, both of which were well fancied in the betting.'

Move over Labubu!—TikTok falls in love with Ireland's answer to viral craze
Move over, Labubu—there's a new tiny obsession in town, and it bleats. A U.S. influencer's video has gone viral after they stumbled across a hand-knitted sheep bag charm in a small Irish souvenir shop, promptly christening it the 'La Ba Ba.' In the clip, which has racked up tens of thousands of views TikTok, the influencer encourages their followers to switch things up and start collecting these cozy critters instead of the usual viral toys. Move over, Labubu—there's a new tiny obsession in town, and it bleats. Pic:Irish knitters might not have seen this one coming, but the La Ba Ba is already on its way to becoming the next must-have travel trinket. 'The fashion police called. Labubus are out; Labaabaas are in. Sorry, I don't make the rules,' the user Hungry Haley wrote, with many taking to the comments to share their excitement at the cuddly accessory. 'I'm definitely buying a lababa when I'm home in 2 weeks. I've been influenced,' one Irish native wrote. 'I NEED A LABABA!! HOW DO I GET ONE?!?!?' a second penned. 'Finally a trend I can get on board with,' a third shared. The makers of the now-famous sheep, Erin Knitwear, were quick to spot the viral moment. The Cork-based company, run by siblings Caroline, Billy and John has been handcrafting woollen accessories for over six decades. They promptly reached out to the influencer directly and in a follow-up video, they extended an invitation to visit their main store in Cork aka the homeland of the La Ba Ba—to see where the fluffy charms are born. We love when a plan comes together, and the plan is supporting Irish businesses!
