After listening to a speech by Mr Farage in the Commons where he referred to former Speaker of the House of Commons John Berow as a "little man", presenter Emily Carver turned to Mr Berwick and said "he's going to cause some trouble, isn't he, Nigel"
Mr Farage is understood to have been making a thinly veiled reference to John Bercow who was Speaker in Parliament during the height of the Brexit debate.
During his 10 years as speaker, Mr Bercow made numerous enemies among Brexit-supporting MPs due to a series of decisions perceived as favouring the Remain camp.

Speaking about Mr Farage, Mr Berwick highlighted the challenges the Brexiteer could face when working with a Cabinet where "90 percent voted Remain".
Mr Berwick replied: "He is the proverbial fox in the chicken coop, isn't he. But I have to say as a democrat it was good to see Nigel there, he was elected by his constituents, so he's there representing them.
"But importantly he was standing in a chamber, let's be frank, where probably 90 percent of those MPs, both those coming for the first time and those returning, voted Remain.
"And quite of those MPs, including by the way, dare I say, many of those are on the Labour Front Bench and in government, were part of that appalling 2017 to 2019 Parliament."

Ms Carver interjected: "Just on that, the whole Cabinet are Remain voters aren't they? the whole Cabinet."
Mr Berwick continued saying that there wasn't a single Brexit or supporter of the Leave campaign and that he thought was "one of the big stories of this election".
Reform UK, formerly the Brexit Party, was founded in 2018. Prior to last week's election, the party had only one MP, Lee Anderson, who defected from the Conservative Party.
