Lorraine Kelly got more than she bargained for when she teased who would be on her show on today’s Good Morning Britain.

The presenter told Ben Shephard, Kate Garraway and Susanna Reid she would be speaking to actor Philip Glenister about his new TV show.

They then surprised her by revealing the Life On Mars actor would certainly be pleased to see her.

“You love Philip Glenister, Lorraine, and he adores you!” Ben told her.

He added: “Do you remember this…?”

The show then played on old clip of Philip being interviewed on This Morning where he was asked who his “guilty crush” was.

Giving the question some consideration, he replied: “Hmmm, Lorraine Kelly.”

Lorraine was amazed to hear she was the object of his affection but Kate wasn’t surprised.

“I have heard that before!” she said.

A giggling Lorraine replied: “I can’t wait to see him now, it will be hilarious!”

“It is going to be a lot more exciting isn’t it Lorraine,” Ben then teased her.

Susanna then added that no-one should feel “guilty” about having a crush on Lorraine.

“Too right,” Ben agreed.

Lorraine seemed to be relishing the chance to flirt with Philip when it was time to interview him.

Talking about his new TV show Living The Dream where he plays a man who moves to the USA with his family, she said she loved a scene where the actor is shown jumping into a pool naked.

“There’s the joy of seeing you naked!” she said of the show. “I kept watching that scene on repeat!”
