Gok Wan called out for comment amid ITV This Morning surprise as viewers spot problem

Gok Wan was quickly called out for a comment he made on This Morning as he sprung a surprise on an unsuspecting viewer. Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield were back at the helm of the ITV daytime programme as they hosted their last show of the week.

But after welcoming viewers to the penultimate show of the week, the hosts didn't reveal what was coming up on the show and instead got stuck straight into their first segment which saw them hand over to Gok.

"Very packed show for you today including a special makeover with Gok and his glam squad," Phillip, 60, told viewers. "Ahead of Mother's Day this weekend we wanted to spoil one of our viewers and that is Jackie, who you can see there," Holly, 42, went on to say as the cameras switched to show the unsuspecting viewer enjoying breakfast close to the studio.

She went on to say that Jackie had been nominated by her daughter, Nicky, who says her mum deserves a treat after having a 'few tough years'. Phillip explained: "Nicky has brought Jackie to London and told her it's for an early Mother's Day present.

"They are having breakfast at a hotel down and Gok is there ready to surprise Jackie," he added before passing over the TV star who was hiding out ready to spring into action.

"The glamour of my life, I'm currently stood in an industrial corridor in a hotel about to surprise Jackie," Gok explained. "She thinks she has come to London with her daughter Nicky to watch Loose Women but no, we're going to surprise her with the mother of all makeovers for Mother's Day," he added.

He then went off the surprise Jackie, who was stunned by the change of plans, while Nicky ended up in tears. As Gok introduced himself, Jackie said: "I know who you are," to which he laughed and revealed all about what was going on."

But This Morning viewers couldn't help but pick up on a comment made by Gok as he whisked Jackie off for her surprise. @DavidMackayy tweeted: "Gok saying 'we’ve got so much work to do' CHEEK #thismorning."

@DawudAishah posted: "What's Gok trying to say. "We've got so much work to do" lol she's still lovely looking. She's not a hideous looking monster. Lol #thismorning." @@andread48070873 said: "'We've got so much work to do' cheeky bugger Gok!! #thismorning."

Others also pointed out that Jackie may not have been a Loose Women fan after all as she didn't seem to know that the show had been taken off the air this week in place of coverage of the Cheltenham Races with @Cameronsk19 asking: "Is #LooseWomen even on today? #thismorning."
