Wednesday’s episode of This Morning turned into a car crash just minutes after going live on air. 

Presenters Cat Deeley, 48, and Ben Shephard, 50, returned to our screens to host the ITV show, and at the start of the instalment, they were keen to share what viewers could expect.  

The pair explained one guest joining them on the iconic sofa was actress Jo Joyner, 47, who was there to talk about her new series Little Disasters. 

Cat said: ‘The gripping psychological series starring the wonderful Jo Joyner, and she’s popping in to tell us all about it a little bit later on.’

Ben chimed in: ‘She’s amazing,’ before adding: ‘You alright over there Ed?’

Cat asked: ‘Ed, are you alright?’

Later on the camera showed a wide sH๏τ of the studio as the pair chatted away to each other, which included radio host Tom Swarbrick, 38, and Baroness Sayeeda Warsi, 54, (pictured) sitting at the table – but Tom was on his mobile

‘Little crash landing?,’ Ben questioned. 

As Cat started to laugh, Ben said to himself: ‘Yeah he is okay.’ 

Talking to Ed, who was out of sH๏τ, he added: ‘It is a dramatic thriller! I can understand. It’s a little collapse on camera two.’

Cat couldn’t contain her laughter as she giggled behind her co-host and said: ‘He’s gone pink!’  

That wasn’t the only blunder that happened at the start of the episode. 

Later on the pair spoke to David Domoney live from his garden in Warwickshire.

Ben was a little confused over Cat’s stance and she said told him: ‘Just stretching, you know.’  

‘тιԍнт hips?’ Ben questioned.

Ben and Cat (pictured) definitely found the funny side of the blunder that happened live on air on Wednesday

But Cat told him: ‘You know, we can’t all be like Men’s Health can we?’, making reference to his topless magazine cover which was published earlier this week.

The camera showed a wide sH๏τ of the studio as the chatted away to each other, and guests radio host Tom Swarbrick, 38, and Baroness Sayeeda Warsi, 54, could be seen sitting at the table. 

They regularly appear on the ITV show to discuss the weekly topics and headlines with Cat and Ben. 

But Tom clearly didn’t realise that he was in the sH๏τ because he was seen sitting in the chair while on his mobile. 

After a few seconds the sH๏τ went back to just Cat and Ben, and he asked her: ‘What was that by the way?’

Cat told him: ‘That was a bit of “Where’s the beach?” I’m just having a stretch.’ 

As the camera went back to a wide sH๏τ, Tom was STILL scrolling on his device.

Ben asked Cat: ‘Your hips struggling?’

Tuesday’s instalment of the ITV show saw the TV star, 53, chat to hosts Ben, 50, and Cat Deeley, 48, about his brand new book The World’s Worst Superheroes. 

The pair were keen to find out about the characters in the novel, including one called Super Dave.  

Ben said to the comedian: ‘Some of them are made up and some of them are real… so tell us about actual Super Dave?’

David jokingly said: ‘Well Super Dave is a bit like Ben Shephard but without the steroids.’ 

The comment made Ben and Cat burst into laughter.  

Ben sternly told him: ‘It’s not steroids, David.’

The camera then panned in on David cracking up as his own joke. 

Ben added: ‘It’s just protein.’ 

David said: ‘Protein shakes, that was it.’ 

Ben showed off his rippling muscles for a striking Men’s Health UK cover on Tuesday.
