During his chat Price revealed that he brought his adult daughter to see his last ever show.
‘My daughter Kate’s here tonight. She was 11 when I started doing this. She was still in primary school’ he said.
Price, who was a regular panelist on for the start of the working week edition of the show, joked that he would not know what to do with his Mondays now the show has been cancelled.
‘I love the crew behind this show,’ he added.
‘They are the best in the world… And the on-air hosts have been fantastic. You’ve all been very generous and kind to me.’
Waleed Aly also offered his thanks to his co-star, ‘Pricey, before we go, I just want to say – it has been a joy to work with you, mate.’

Corbett, 44, who has been on the panel show since 2015, also seemed to set off host Sarah Harris who was also seen to fight back tears.

‘You know it doesn’t take me much,’ Corbett said as she tried to keep a brave face.

Corbett replied that that ‘wasn’t true’ before sharing a heartfelt tribute to her outgoing colleagues.
‘Anyway, we’ve got plenty of show to get to but I just want to say it’s been a bloody privilege doing this show with you guys. I love you so dearly.’
The broadcaster, who regularly appears as a panellist on The Project’s Sunday edition also thanked the show’s regular studio audience who she said turned up ‘week after week for this wonderful show.’
The show’s producer’s later shared the moment to X with the caption, ‘It only took us 30 seconds to start crying during our final week on air.’
