Emily Atack has won legions of fans for her relatable and down-to-earth personality, and audiences fell a little bit more in love with her on Friday during her appearance on The One Show – since she couldn't contain herself after meeting one of her favourite bands. Emily threw her hands to her mouth when Busted were introduced, even hiding behind presenters Michael Ball and Alex Jones at one point! "I know every word to every song, that’s sad isn’t it?" she said, to which Matt Willis reassured her: "No, that’s awesome. I don’t even know every word to every song!"

Alex then told the camera, "Emily is a mess!" before introducing the boys' performance – when Emily could be heard joking under her breath: "Get the restraining orders ready." Later, Busted's Charlie Simpson tweeted Emily saying, "Nice to meet you @EmAtack! See you at Wembley!" to which she replied: "YESSSS!!! I cannot wait!" It seems we have a true fangirl on our hands.

She said following the news: "I'm buzzing about presenting the Capital Breakfast Show next week!
