Good Morning Britain in chaos as presenter warned 'you'll get banned'
Good Morning Britain hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls were left in hysterics after facing an awkward moment on the ITV show.
During Thursday's instalment of Good Morning Britain, Susanna Reid and Ed Balls faced a somewhat awkward moment on air.
The hosts had been discussing current affairs with Kwasi Kwarteng and Ayesha Hazarika when Susanna took the opportunity to introduce Marks & Spencer's latest creation – a strawberries and cream sandwich.
Despite initially thinking it was a joke, Susanna, Ed, and their guests got stuck into taste testing. Still, it didn't seem to be a hit with everyone.
Before even tasting it, Ed expressed his reluctance, commenting: "I really don't want to, it looks absolutely disgusting."
Ayesha couldn't hold back her repulsion, exclaiming: "Oh my gosh, it's minging! Sorry, it's minging."
Ed chimed in with a preference for something stronger as he added: "I would've rather had a gin and tonic."
Susanna, ever the professional, couldn't help but laugh as she countered: "You'll get banned for saying that! I have to say, I thought that was absolutely delicious."
Ed was seemingly torn over the quirky snack, heading in for a second taste after his initial hesitation. Susanna, however, openly admitted her fondness for the unusual combination, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Wrapping up their time with Ayesha and Kwasi, things got tricky as Susanna and Ed munched on. They ended up in a quiet bind, unable to speak due to their full mouths, which led to off-camera chuckles during the unexpected silent patch.
Ed tried to smoothly transition as he remarked: "Still to come- I don't think we can do it, can we?" Caught mid-bite, Susanna remained silent leaving Ed to face an awkward silence.
He went on to ask: "What do we do? Do we go to a break? Shall we have the weather?" Laughs from Kwasi and Ayesha could be heard off-camera as they watched Ed scramble to navigate the blunder, while Susanna had finally swallowed her sandwich.
She then quipped: "Normally, the director would save us with the weather, but he's just going to stick with it!"

Love Island fans accuse bosses of ‘fixing' public dumping to get rid of Megan after Conor drama
It was an explosive evening in the villa last night 'FIX' ROW Love Island fans accuse bosses of 'fixing' public dumping to get rid of Megan after Conor drama LOVE Island fans have accused bosses of "fixing" last night's public dumping, in a bid to get rid of Megan after all the Conor drama. The latest episode saw Megan and Remell dumped after the public were asked to choose their favourite boy and favourite girl. Advertisement 4 Megan was dumped from the villa in the public vote Credit: ITV 4 It came after she was in the bottom three girls, along with Shakira and Toni Credit: ITV 4 It comes after Megan dumped Tommy for Conor this week Credit: ITV 4 Remell was also dumped from the villa in the public vote Credit: ITV In last night's show, Giorgio got a text and everyone was sent to gather at the Firepit. The bottom three girls were then revealed as Shakira, Megan and Toni. And the bottom three boys in the firing line were Ben, Harry and Remell. Shockingly, Megan and Remell received the least votes from the public and were then immediately dumped from the villa. Advertisement But Love Island fans have now got a theory about why Megan was the one to be dumped from the villa out of the girls. They think because of the public turning on Megan over the last few days, bosses were keen to see the Irish beauty leave the villa. Taking to social media, one said: "I'm guessing the producers didn't like Megan. "I bet they wouldn't have allowed the other Megan to go, had she been bottom. Advertisement "Sometimes they let the public votes decide other times they let the Islanders choose... either way it's very very manipulated." Another echoed this "Basically the producers were happy to let Megan go, otherwise they'd have had the Islanders pick. Seething Love Island fans slam 'vile' Ben and demand he's axed in public vote after explosive row with Yasmin "They would've 100% saved Megan. "I think they wanted to get rid of her once they saw her unhinged and abusive behaviour. Advertisement This week's drama in the villa saw Megan finally confirm that she and Tommy were over, after spending recent days ramping up her connection with rugby lad Conor. No sooner had she told a delighted Conor about the development, he suggested they spend the night in the hideaway. The explosive move came after they shared two snogs on the Terrace behind smitten Tommy Bradley's back, infuriating fans. Megan and Tommy had seemed to be one of the dating show's most secure couples until this week, when her head was turned by Conor - sparking other Islanders to brand the situation 'wife swap'. Advertisement Fans also turned on 'nasty' Megan after she gleefully called Conor and Tommy's row over her "brilliant".

1% Club contestant reveals 'fake' scenes and strict rule that could cost the prize
1% Club contestant reveals 'fake' scenes and strict rule that could cost the prize The 1% Club has been a huge hit with viewers since it launched earlier this year, but a former contestant has now lifted the lid on what really goes on behind the scenes A former contestant revealed her thoughts on host Lee Mack (Image: ITV ) Since it's launch in 2022, ITV game show The 1% Club, has quickly cemented itself as a favourite in prime time television. Hosted by Would I Lie to You star, Lee Mack, the programme stands out with its IQ test-like questions that challenge logic and reasoning, rather than the usual general knowledge. For those who don't know - out of 100 participants, individuals are gradually eliminated until at least one remains, faced with a final 30-second question that only 1% of people can answer correctly. Success at this stage could lead to a jackpot win of £100,000. Despite the show's popularity, there have been eye-opening revelations from a former contestant about some behind-the-scenes manipulations that may astonish avid viewers. Heidi Phillips, 49 years old, lifted the lid on her experience as a participant after discovering the chance to compete on The 1% Club through a Facebook ad, leading to an initial quiz mirroring the game show via Zoom, reports Bristol Live. Sharing insider details about the workings of this top ITV show, Heidi alleged that certain aspects were not entirely authentic. She claimed that Lee Mack's humorous interjections are not actually filmed concurrently with the contestants' answers. In conversation with Fruity Slots, Heidi shed light on the production methods: "While contestants are answering questions on the tablet, Lee usually takes the time to make a joke to the audience at home. But all his comical parts are filmed later. Article continues below "When we're answering the question, he remains silent. Then he has to be filmed asking the question again and we have to pretend to put our answers in. That was a bit weird!" Heidi shared that there was one particularly strict rule for contestants once they were seated with their tablets; they had to keep their eyes fixed on their screens without looking around. "There were actually invigilators who go back through the show episode to make sure every contestant plays the game fairly. "You could have won the cash prize but if they go back through filming and see you glanced over at another contestant's screen before answering, you'll forfeit the prize." Heidi said: "That's not happened yet - but it was a stern warning!" For the latest TV and showbiz gossip sign up to our newsletter She spoke fondly of the host, Lee Mack, adding: "He's honestly really funny. Very naturally funny. He also has banter with the warm-up comedian and creates a nice atmosphere." Heidi expressed her enthusiasm for a return to the show, commending the staff for their careful consideration of contestants' comfort with sharing personal stories. On the matter of clothing, Heidi pointed out that contestants must dress appropriately, with a caution against wearing "nothing low cut". "They seemed really concerned about our welfare and us being happy to share things on TV. They really took the time to check in with us," she said. Article continues below Heidi wrapped up by offering her two pence to those who might follow in her footsteps, advising: "When they ask you how you'll spend the winnings, don't say something boring like paying off the mortgage. Give a really wild question. "I made silly jokes that if I won the prize, I'd spend it on opening a trifle sandwich shop."
