Holly and Phil forced to look back at scripts after This Morning production blunder

This Morning suffered a production blunder forcing Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield to look back at their scripts and change position on set.

The pair were introducing the cooking segment from John Torode about how to boil an egg perfectly.

As the link went to John's house, he said: "Good morning everybody. You are very early. I was told you were going to get to me at 10.10am.

John said he wasn't ready (ITV)

"My eggs have only just gone in the water."

Phil said: "Six minutes early. What do you want us to do, come back? Do something else?"

John said: "Can you do that, or I can boil an egg for you now?"

Holly said: "We can talk cheese and give you a little bit of extra time."

John replied: "Perfect", as Holly and Phil burst into laughter.

Phil said: "We don't care it's absolutely fine."

Holly and Phil then picked up their scripts to see exactly what they should talk about next.

Phil then had to do a quick dash to the other side of the set, but as always the pair remained professional as ever and continued with the show.
