Holly Willoughby became glued to a crew member at This Morning in a last-minute broken nail blunder.
The morning TV presenter giggled as she showed fans how she and Patsy, who was doing her nails at the time, had become physically stuck together.
Explaining how the pair had gotten themselves into a sticky situation, Holly said: "So my nail fell off and Patsy decided to glue it back on. They are my own nails, I'm having them down, and we are now attached to each other.
The 40-year-old moved her hand away and showed how she and her make up artist's pointing fingers had become fused.
"It's like a renascence painting and we actually can't get apart," she joked.
Patsy was handed a bottle of special solution and applied a little with a cotton bud to their finger tips - allowing them both to ping free.
Holly shouted "yaaaay!" as she is detached from her make up artist.
Looking very festive, Holly wore a red long-sleeved dress with a high-necked collar that she teamed with matching red lipstick.
Sharing her look on Instagram she said: "It’s CHRIIIIIISTMAAAAAS! Final day on @thismorning until Christmas Day… open the fizz! #hwstyle dress by @masterpeace.masterpeace #12daysofsparkle."
She wore black tights and stepped into a pair of black stiletto heels with sparkly silver buckles.
Her Christmassy look marked her last show of the year with Phil as the pair broke up for the holidays.
The mum-of-three recently addressed rumours that she plans to leave the show after working alongside her presenting partner Philip Schofield for over a decade.
Speaking on The Johnathan Ross Show, she said: "I feel very lucky to be on that show. The show changes so much, I think that’s the beauty of This Morning.
"Recently, it’s had the highest ratings it’s had in 15 years. It’s doing really, really well which is extraordinary for a show that’s been around for as long as it has. And I think because it changes and it evolves and it adapts."
"I’m very lucky to work with Phil. I can’t imagine a world without him being there. It just wouldn’t be the same. The magic of that show is us two together when we’re together.
"So no, I’m not retiring, that’s a really long answer."
Holly and Phil, 59, hosted a rare Friday show after they took over from the usuals Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary.
It was announced earlier that today's programme would look a little different and Phil added that Holly would be hosting a festive phone in.
The silver-haired presenter said: "A quick word about Friday's show, which we're doing.
"He's in high demand at this time of year but Father Christmas will be taking a break from his busy schedule to answer your children's questions."
Holly added: "So whether they’re wondering if Rudolph really is his favourite reindeer, or whether he prefers mince pies or cookies by the chimney.
"It's their chance to speak to the actual Santa", she added.
