Cheeky Bradley teased Mark after he moaned he wasn't allowed to eat biscuits - but apparently took it a lyric too far.
Larking around in front of viewers, singer Bradley crooned at the chaser: "Custard creams custard creams jammy dodgers custard creams" as Mark glared at him.
Mark sniped: "[Bradley] takes great delight in showing off what he's allowed."
And as Bradley continued to chant the names of different brands of delicious biscuits, Mark finally snapped: "Sometimes I really hate you".
