It's a known fact that chairs squeak. But when you're on live TV, the airs are a little, uh, murkier.

On this morning's TODAY, Lisa Wilkinson set her co-host Karl Stefanovic straight after he suggested that the squeak of her chair was perhaps something more sinister. Oh no he didn't!

Lisa immediately told a curious, concerned Karl: "That was my chair. How dare you suggest anything else?"

He replied: "Just that everyone had heard it. You couldn't suggest it!"

Sylvia Jeffreys suggested a spot of WD-40 oil to solve The Great Squeak of February 7, 2017 (which you can't really hear on camera, but it definitely happened).

Karl had one last gag up his sleeve involving some cheeky advice from former TODAY newsreader Georgie Gardiner.

Well, a quiet chair never made anyone LOL. Happy Tuesday!
