Is there a serious side to this Phillip says. She’s been serious since you started interviewing her but you both keep giggling,” one viewer slammed.

“I don’t believe a word she says but if she does, let her carry on.

“Phil’s sarky tone and looks are so rude,” said another.

How did This Morning presenters Holly and Phil react to Kelly Angel?

It’s fair to say Holly and Phil were a little perplexed when chatting to Kelly about her job.

She explained: “My job is to go in. What we do is collect it all and bring it back to my house… When I go home I open the gates of hell and take the dark energy over.”

“You go home and open the gates of hell?” a baffled Phil asked.

“Yes. I do that about five or six times a day. It’s pretty normal for me. Demons, we keep contained. I open the gates of hell and then take them down,” she said straight-faced.

Some viewers, however, did laugh along with the segment at home.

One said: “Has morning TV reached its peak now? Woman on #ThisMorning says she can open the gates to hell #ComedyGold.”
