The dynamic duo discussed some of the biggest stories hitting the headlines including the UK inflation dip to 2.5% in December and the news that Kate Middleton is in remission from cancer.
Later on in the show, the pair welcomed the Hairy Biker onto the show to take part in the competition segment Spin to Win before cooking up a storm in the ITV kitchen.
But things didn’t go quite to plan when the 58-year-old broadcaster was left waiting for one lucky viewer to answer the phone. It was at this point he chuckled: “I’m not coming back here again” after the first viewer failed to answer their phone.

Another asked: “Think they should get rid of spin to win and bring coin drop back at least they got an answer on that game [laughing emoji] #thismorning.” A third asked: “Why are the prizes so low for spin to win now?! #thismorning.”
