Jermaine Jenas made his return to commentary for Sunday's FA Cup fourth round tie between Aston Villa and Tottenham.
The former Newcastle and Tottenham midfielder - who was capped 21 times by England between 2003 and 2009 - was sacked by the BBC in August amid allegations of workplace misconduct after sending explicit texts to two female employees.
Jenas, who presented The One Show, has not been heard on the airwaves since an appearance on talkSPORT which came at the same time his departure from the BBC was announced.
