"Viggo was supposed to be joining me in the studio this morning but unfortunately he's not feeling too chipper. But hopefully we'll see him later on," she said.
Speaking over a clip of the comedian on Britain's Got Talent, Lorraine then added: "Look at the energy of the man! He needs a wee rest. We'll talk to him soon."
After his win was announced over the weekend, Viggo said: "I won not only the heart of Britain, but also the heart of Simon [Cowell]. Thank you to everybody who voted for me."

Former Britain's Got Talent star Susan Boyle also made an appearance as she performed alongside the cast of Les Misérables.
