He joined co-hosts Lauren Laverne and Alex Jones on the green sofa on Thursday (January 20) and yesterday (January 21).
Fans were delighted to see the popular presenter, 33, on the BBC One flagship show. But one critical Twitter user caught Rylan‘s eye following Friday’s episode and came in for a cutting response.

“Your mispronunciation of words containing a ‘t’ is awful. As a BBC presenter you need elocution lessons.”
Rylan, however, seemed unimpressed with the feedback on his work.
How did Rylan respond?
Quote-tweeting the original tweet, Rylan took a cheeky swipe at the displeased viewer.
“Leave it out ‘erry,” Rylan responded.
Fans were tickled by Rylan’s comeback, with his tweet picking up thousands of likes within hours.
How did fans react?
Other Twitter users seemed to side with Rylan – and showered him with compliments about his performance.
“Haha, you tell him Rylan,” chuckled one person.
“You were brilliant tonight. The One Show is a million times better when you’re presenting.”
Another supporter contributed: “I’m guessing Terry has not heard the expression ‘if you’ve not got anything nice to say’… We love you Rylan for the person you are, with or without ‘Ts’.”
