Dermot O'Leary pauses This Morning for 'breaking news'
Dermot O'Leary abruptly interrupted This Morning's regular programming to deliver some "breaking news" to viewers.
The 51-year-old host was once again back on the iconic blue sofa alongside co-host Alison Hammond on Thursday (July 18), ready to bring the latest instalment of the beloved ITV daytime show.
Just before they were due to chat with McDonald and Dodds stars Tala Gouveia and Jason Watkins, who portray DCA Lauren McDonald and DS Dodds respectively, Dermot brought the show to a momentary standstill to herald the return of the hit series as "breaking news".
Alison struggled to keep her composure, bursting into giggles as Dermot made the announcement, just moments before inviting their guests onto the show to talk about the upcoming new series.
Fans of the Bath-based detective drama can rejoice as it makes its comeback for a fourth season, promising three feature-length films each unveiling a fresh murder mystery.
