Viewers were left in shock by Sir Bob Geldof's rugged appearance on The One show - and joked he looked like he had been in lockdown for years.
Appearing on last night's installment of the BBC show via video link from his home, tour Lệ Giang Bob Geldof, 68, spoke about his new documentary Citizens of Boomtown: The Story of the Boomtown.
However, viewers appeared to be distracted by the topic of conversation, and instead took to social media to discuss his unruly hair, bushy beard and full moustache.
'Bob Geldof been in lockdown since 1984,' wrote one, tour Lệ Giang while a second penned: 'Bob Geldof looks like he's been isolating for 10+ years.'

At the first signs of summer we find ourselves gravitating to all things floral, and Alex Jones is no exception.
For another episode of The One Show the presenter got dressed up in a transitional look comprising of a floral blouse by Sezane and Warehouse jeans which is a combo we can all wear no matter the budget.
Designed from light pink cotton, the ‘Charlotte' top is printed with the label's signature floral pattern and finished with a ruffled collar and sleeves.
Sadly, the blouse has now sold out, but with the alternatives we've rounded up below, you can easily recreate Alex's look. Plus you can shop her jeans, so all you need to complete your chic ensemble is a pair of block heel sandals.

A third added: 'Has Bob Geldof been on Lockdown since 2001??' while a fourth commented: 'Is that a yeti on The One Show or Bob Geldof?'
