Holly added: “Well remembered! You did very well.”

Earlier today, Alison had appeared on This Morning to talk about her NTA nomination.

The star is up for the TV Presenter gong against the likes of Ant and Dec, Bradley Walsh and Graham Norton.

We’re going to do a spin of the wheel and the amount that we get will add to whatever you win on Monday with Dermot and Alison.

Speaking about her nomination, Alison said: “Obviously I would love to win, it would mean so much to me and my family.

“I think it would be so much to normal people because I’m just this girl off a council estate in Birmingham doing this.

“I’ve worked really, really hard and I think I’m doing it for the every day people who thought they weren’t good enough.”

What did Alison say about her NTA nomination?

Alison added: “So if I win, we all win man. I feel like I’ve won already, to be in that category. It’s incredible.”

Going on to discuss her partnership with Dermot, Alison said: “It’s just really worked out. I just love him so much.

“He’s like my partner in crime. I just think he’s amazing.”

Meanwhile, viewers have reacted to Holly and Phil taking another week off on Twitter.

One person said: “Oh they are off next week??? Another holiday #thismorning.”
