This Morning mishap leaves Phil and Holly in hysterics

The presenting duo were completely caught off guard

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield had a moment of panic when the This Morning theme tune didn’t play after the commercial break, leaving them totally unaware they were live on air!

The pair were seen taking notes and talking as the show came back without warning.

Viewers at home were amused at the blunder, as were Holly and Phil.

A baffled Phil asked: “Where was the music?”

But as Holly kindly offered to sing the theme tune for him instead, Phil quickly replied: “No!

“There’s never any need for that.”

Ignoring Phil’s remark, Holly went ahead and sang the catchy tune anyway.

But the hosting couple revealed they couldn’t start talking before hearing the warning cue.

Holly said: “I won’t speak unless I hear that tune!”

As they giggled, Phil then demanded the song be played, but even then it turned out it to be a few seconds delayed!

The 51-year-old jokingly said: “On the ball!”

But then the star was so distracted about the theme song debacle, he missed his own cue.

It comes the day after it was announced Holly had won the TV Personality Of The Year along with two other trophies at the TRIC awards last night.

The mum-of-three couldn’t believe her luck as she came out on top beating rivals Ant & Dec and Keith Lemon.

She said: “I’m delighted, I can’t even begin to tell you how delighted I am.”

She definitely deserved it, and this is why viewers love them so much!
