This Morning fans stunned by incredible The Wizard of Oz themed opening

This Morning fans were left astounded as the show got off to a rather unusual start today.

All appeared to be normal during the opening titles until a tornado lifted Holly Willoughby's taxi off the ground and sent it plummeting into the studio.

Holly stepped out of the taxi in ruby red slippers dressed as Dorothy to a transformed studio.

It all quickly became clear that This Morning had undergone a remarkable Wizard of Oz style transformation.

The beloved presenter said: "Oh my goodness. I've got a feeling we're not on This Morning anymore."

Holly soon stumbled upon her fellow presenter Phillip Schofield dressed as a scarecrow hanging on a cross.

She said she would help Phil find his brain, before he burst into a rendition of "If I Only Had A Brain'.

Watch the video above to see Holly and Phil's incredible transformations.

Viewers quickly took to social media to express their initial confusion and eventual excitement.

One Twitter user asked: "WHAT. IS. HAPPENING. ON #ThisMorning?!!!!"

"Thought I was hallucinating for one moment" another added.

A third said: "OH MY GOSH! The show looks so amazing as #TheWizardOfOz for #Halloween

Phillip had to wake up at 4.30am to make sure he was in the dressing room ahead of his transformation.



This Morning airs weekdays at 10.30am on ITV.
The host was in the chair at 6.42am to start on his prosthetics.
