But the broadcasters were forced to apologise for comments the 60-year-old made when he was reminiscing about his partnership with Paul Whitehouse.
He said: "I was thinking about Jimmy Tarbuck for some reason and how when we were young, we used to take the p**s out of him a lot."
Ranvir Singh stepped in to correct the BAFTA award-winning comic.
She said: "Hello, language. Take the mickey. Sorry, children."
Harry Enfield apologised for his remarks and Good Morning Britain viewers took to Twitter to comment about the awkward exchange:
One user said: "#GMB Harry Enfield oh dear #Cringeworthy"
Another added: "Phone Ofcom #gmb"
A third commented: "HE'S DROPPED THE P BOMB"
A fourth tweeted: "Reports to Ofcom are going to be off the chain following Harry Enfield on #GMB aren’t they"
A fifth said: "Awkward!"
