shared some supportive words for his co-star Ellie Costello after she made a confession.
Ellie’s admission came as she presented Breakfast on Tuesday (January 14). During the programme, Eamonn mentioned that there is a bin strike in Birmingham and said that while strikes are often condemned, he is in full support of them.
The 65-year-old revealed that he previously spent two weeks on a TV programme where he worked as a bin man and came away from it realising how “filthy” people are.
He declared: “Absolutely filthy. People dump mattresses on the side of the road, people drop all kinds of awfulness into their bins and beyond. You don’t want to know.”
Ellie, 31, then chimed in with her own experience, telling her co-stars: “My bins are always overflowing, they don’t come often enough.”

The presenter explained that she has to stand on her bins every two weeks because they get so full, specifically with cardboard boxes from her online orders.
She added: “Do you know what I did the other day which I am ashamed to say, when I got in the taxi at 3 o’clock in the morning, I took a load of recycling and put it in the neighbours bin in the middle of the night.”
Eamonn assured his co-host that she didn’t need to worry, responding: “What they don’t know doesn’t hurt them.”
But the TV star noted that they might be aware now.
It comes after . Isabel had hosted GB News Breakfast with Eamonn since its launch in 2022, but was suddenly axed by the channel in a recent shake-up.
