This Morning: Special forest episode confuses viewers as they compare it to I’m A Celebrity

People loved the new environment!

This Morning aired live from a forest today, but the special episode left some viewers thinking they were watching I’m A Celebrity!

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield hosted the programme from the This Morning forest and revealed they wanted to do their bit to help and protect the animals and the plants.

Opening the show, Holly said: “Welcome, this is our second home. It’s going to be perfect for us to revisit during the coming weeks and months.

“It’s a special place.”

However, as viewers tuned in, they thought they were watching ITV’s I’m A Celebrity.

I’m A Celebrity is hosted by Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly and is usually set in the Australian outback.

But last year and this year, it’s hosted in Wales due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Viewers today compared This Morning to the ITV reality show and joked they thought it had come early!

One person said on Twitter: “Forgot @thismorning was from there forest today thought it was @imacelebrity.”
