Doctor does the unthinkable to win This Morning spin to win trip

This Morning's spin to win competition has had its fair share of controversy and today was no exception.

Holly and Phil phoned Dr Rhodri and he answered with the correct password of New York.

As they chatted to him they asked: "Why did it take you so long to answer the phone."

And he said: "Because I'm on the wards, I'm a Doctor in Cardiff."

Phil and Holly were stunned and said: "Have you just nipped out?" and Rhodri replied: "Yeah I'm with a patient, I've just come out."

The presenting pair were shocked and said: "We best get this done quick then."

They span the wheel and it landed originally on the Cardiff spa trip, which Phil switched to the Devon spa break.

And people at home couldn't believe what the Doctor had done.

Dave said: "Rhodri's patient has died from his injuries as Rhodri walks around the ward to tell the other doctors about his win."

Gregg Watson said: "Just cant get the staff these days.. Get back to your patients doctor!!"

Rose said: "Wow he was a doctor and he had time to answer?! Gosh."

Moggle said: "And they wonder why people go with BUPA."

And Sara said: "Imagine being in hospital and the doctor walking out to take a phone call from this pair? I'd be fuming."

*This Morning continues at 10am on ITV tomorrow
