Bradley Walsh stuns Phillip and Holly with shocking home schooling prank live on This Morning

Bradley Walsh and his son sprung an epic prank on Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby as they hosted This Morning on Monday.

The presenting duo were joined by Vanessa Feltz for a live phone-in about the difficulties of home schooling and Bradley, posing as VERY strict parent Roger, informed them that he had been keeping 16-year-old son James, actually played by his own son Barney, on a tight leash with lessons; making him wear his school uniform and had even given him detention in his bedroom when he stepped out of line.

'James' said things had got so bad that he even had to put his hand up to ask to go to the toilet and had been taken on a school trip to the spare room.

As you can see in the video above, taken from This Morning's Twitter, things got heated when 'Roger' could be heard shouting "Audrey get the door!!!" before saying to Holly that he was sure she would "discipline" her three children if "they were unruly."

The call ended before a commercial break and on the show's return from the ads, Holly told viewers that producers had been in touch with the family to "make sure everything was OK."

But then Phillip revealed to her that all was not what it seemed, before cutting to Bradley and Barney who confessed all, live from their shed at home, where they revealed they've been making a prank show from.

Holly exclaimed "What?! Oh my god! Are you kidding me?! I'm so relieved that wasn't real."
