ITV This Morning's Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield speechless as sheep shearing descends into chaos

This Morning descended into chaos this morning as Alison Hammond visited a farm to see sheep shearing.

As the segment started Alison pronounced St Albans wrong, leaving Holly and Phil with their head in their hands.

Alison said: "I thought it was an interview with Ed Sheeran - but I'm very exciting to learn all about sheep shearing."

Holly and Phil struggled to keep a straight face as Alison chatted with the eccentric farmers.

Alison said she didn't want to actually sheer the sheep and was handed a toy one to practise with.

The sheep that was being sheared lay quietly, until the end where he leaped up and jumped around.

As Alison handed back to the studio Phil said: "What the hell did we just do there."

And viewers were left in stitches by the segment and took to twitter in their droves.

One said: "This is an episode of Shaun the Sheep I thought i'd never see."

Another said: "This is why I love #ThisMorning ."

A third said: "is this a piss take on @AlisonHammond2 #ThisMorning @Schofe @hollywills your faces have made my morning."

*This Morning continues at 10:30am on ITV tomorrow
