Loose Women's Ruth Langsford issues 'warning' to co-star before chaos

It was certainly a mixed bag when the Loose Women panellists told viewers what to expect on today's (May 31) show. Ruth Langsford was at the helm and and gave viewers an idea of what they could expect to see on the show when she chatted with This Morning hosts Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary as they cut to their ITV neighbours.

Some pretty chaotic scenes followed in the Loose Women studios as Ruth teased the topics up for discussion on the show. She warned the ITV show would be 'putting its most competitive ladies to the test,' with the panellists in question being Janet Street-Porter and former Olympian Kelly Holmes.

Ruth was also joined by co-star Linda Robson Viewers got their first taste of what to expect from the hour long live programme when This Morning hosts Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary cut to the Loose Women studios with Ruth welcoming them to give a brief rundown of what to expect from the show, Chronicle Live reports

Ruth teased the topics up for discussion on the show, including whether you should remain friends with your ex's family after a break up and a debate on whether children should be able to opt out of their school sports days.

As the discussion turned towards the sporting activity, Kelly, said: "Watch out Kelly, because Janet Street-Porter plays dirty." As sporting anthem Chariots of Fire played in the background, Janet and Kelly took part in a egg and spoon face, with things then taking a turn as Janet whacked Kelly out of the way, with the gold medal winner falling backwards and the camera zooming in on a cracked egg on the floor.

It then panned back to a rather startled looking Ruth who reacted: "She's fine, she's fine," as Kelly was seen trying to get herself back up and, back in the This Morning studio, Alison told viewers at home: "It was a stunt."
