This Morning's Holly Willoughby suffered an awkward moment on today's (March 21) show after she introduced a guest wrongly.

As her co-presenter Phillip Schofield, no less… as he was sitting right next to her.

Holly and Phil were doing a pre-break link to reveal that Jimmy Carr would be the next guest on the sofa, though mistakenly referred to him as "Phillip Schofield".

Quickly realising the blunder and stopping herself, Holly laughed and noted: "I actually just introduced him as you!"

Phil was visibly struck by the mistake, saying in a jokingly offended manner: "I don't know what happened there".

"I think I might have just replaced you instantly," Holly joked, Phil then asking: "Do I mean so little to you?"

Still, Holly saw the funny side, then saying "hi Phil" to Jimmy as they cut to the break.

That wasn't the only blunder that This Morning has suffered in the past week, with the duo struggling to contain themselves as Keith Lemon broke a bed last week.

As the pair introduced the Celebrity Juice star sleeping in a bed, Keith then managed to drag Kelly Brook on the mattress before breaking the whole structure.

Honestly, should we ever trust them with a link again?

This Morning airs weekdays on ITV at 10.30am.
