This Morning fans left concerned after Dermot O'Leary hits head live on TV
This Morning fans were left concerned for presenter Dermot O'Leary as he hit his head live on air after a beauty segment took an awkward turn on Friday morning This Morning presenter Dermot O'Leary suffered a minor injury live on air today as he presented along first time host, Olivia Attwood. The awkward moment happened towards the end of the show, when the presenting duo attempted to try Katy Perry 's pre-show beauty ritual. Taking to Instagram, the Roar singer revealed that she plunged her face into ice water for 18 seconds. Olivia and Dermot then went ahead and tried this trick, but unfortunately for Dermot, things went terribly wrong. "Ready, 3, 2, 1," he said as the duo held their breath before plunging their heads into the ice water. However, a clanking sound was heard with faint laughter in the background - as Dermot had whacked his head on the rim of the blow. Nonetheless, the former X-Factor host carried on like a champ, and after two seconds, the pair came up for air, as Olivia was left screaming: "OH MY GOD!" "The bowl is so small!" Dermot exclaimed, as Olivia laughed: "Did you hit your head on the rim?" "Yes!" he exclaimed while rubbing his head. "How can we not find bigger bowls than that?! That wasn't worth it!" After the moment, concerned fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, as one questioned: "Why was Dermot trying to dive into a bowl?" with a second writing: "We're gonna need a bigger bowl..." "#DermotOleary needs to have a check after hitting his head on the rim of the bowl on #thismorning," a third wrote. It was an eventful Friday morning for the This Morning team, as Olivia Attwood took to the sofa for her presenting debut. It comes after regular Friday and summer host Alison Hammond revealed that she'd be taking a break for a few weeks. During Thursday's episode, the Brummy presenter gave Dermot a hug as she said: "See you in September, bye!" At the start of the show, Dermot revealed he was feeling down due to Alison's departure. "I'm sad because it's your last day for the summer! I'm sad because I won't see you next week," he said. Alison replied, "Aw, not sad; be happy for me! Be happy." Dermot started handing Alison individual flowers from the set as she detailed her summer plans. Olivia's role was announced a few weeks ago as she was interviewed by Ben and Cat about her ITV show, Price of Perfection. She commented, "I'm going to be doing a couple of shows in the summer, I'm very excited to be joining you guys. "It's a huge honour. I've obviously grown up watching this show, and being part of the Daytime team with the Loose Women has been the best experience. This just feels like a very natural progression."

The film that shot Cillian Murphy to fame is airing on TV tonight
The film that Peaky Blinders star Cillian Murphy credits as his breakthrough role is airing on TV tonight - as the much anticipated sequel is set to be released in cinema soon Peaky Blinders fans can prepare to watch fan favourite Cillian Murphy onscreen tonight - although they may not hear his Brummy accent. The star was already an established actor before the hit show, however, the drama significantly boosted his profile when it first aired in 2013. Now, fans will be able to see the star 11 years prior to the show, as movie 28 Days Later airs on BBC One tonight. Fans will be able to catch the Horror/Sci-fi movie on the box at 10.30pm tonight (Sunday June 15) just after the news - with it wrapping up at 0.15am. The movie is set 28 days after a killer virus is accidentally unleashed from a British research facility. It follows a small group of London survivors, who are caught in a desperate struggle to protect themselves from the infected. Cillian Murphy stars in the lead role as Jim, a survivor of the Rage Virus. He starts off as a bicycle courier in the movie, with a nasty fall landing him in hospital. However, people with the Rage Virus overan London, and as hospital staff fled to escape, Jim was locked into a secure room. He later woke from his coma 28 days later in an abandoned hospital. Also starring alongside Cillian in the film is Naomie Harris, Christopher Eccleston and Alex Palmer. The film airing on BBC One comes shortly before the release of the second film in the series, 28 Years Later. Set almost three decades after the first movie offering, released in 2002, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected. Fans were curious as to whether they'd see Cillian in the role - although, it's bad news as character Jim won't be making an appearance in the movie. However, fans can look forward to a potential return for the star in the third instalment, due to be released in 2026. Earlier this year, producer Andrew Macdonald, confirmed to EW would not return to the movie in an onscreen capacity. It doesn't mean a no forever, though - as director Danny Boyle hinted at a return during the ending of its 2026 sequel, The Bone Temple. 'He is in the second one,' Danny Boyle told IGN. 'I shouldn't give away too much. I'll get killed.' 'All I can say is you have to wait for Cillian, but hopefully he will help us get the third film financed,' he later told Business Insider. Cillian has spoken highly about his role on the movie crediting it for being his "breakthrough role". At the time, he was just 26 years old.
