Holly Willoughby under fire as host forced to apologise to This Morning caller
This Morning: Holly apologises to caller over passcode
Holly Willoughby came under fire and was forced to apologise after she falsely told a This Morning caller they had gotten the passcode wrong on Spin to Win when they hadn’t.
As the phone lines rang and Holly and Josie Gibson eagerly waited for someone to answer, the line cleared and one viewer expressed: “Cool as a cucumber.”
Forgetting what she was meant to be listening out for, Holly said: “Oh no, it is the wrong passphrase!
“I am so sorry, I am afraid we are going to have to move on, I am so so sorry! You had it you just said the wrong thing.”
Seconds before they cut off the caller, Josie held a finger up to her ear as Holly exclaimed: “Oh… hang on, you’re not wrong, we are wrong.

“We are so sorry, in the script it says the wrong passphrase there, you are correct, we are wrong and we apologise for that!”
Viewers of the show also noticed the awkward blunder and took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to express their opinions.
@DavidMackayy said: “Holly and Josie, you might wanna check before you play the game x #ThisMorning.”
Tina McDivers commented: “Well that wasn’t awkward… maybe Holly needs to be reminded of the passcode before they play the game?”

@GiveMeLife expressed: “Holly not knowing the passcode and nearly costing the caller life-changing money… very professional.”
Sandra Mews penned: “Another red-face moment for Holly and Josie… it’s a simple passphrase you should know… I am losing the will with these two.” (sic)
During yesterday’s show, one viewer was delighted that Josie was presenting the show with Holly and didn’t hide his excitement.
Caller Andy exclaimed: “Is that Josie?” after hearing her voice and was delighted when she confirmed it was her.
After winning the Bag of Shizzle, Josie beamed: “That bag of shizzle is yours, Andy!” but he was more concerned about getting an autograph from Josie.
He told her: “I love you so much,” leaving her to blush and respond: “You can have my autograph, Andy, I love you – you’re the sweetest human alive!”
Holly told Andy that they would sort it for him and add it to his bag of Shizzle before he said: “Thank you, sweetheart,” and hung up.
This Morning airs weekdays from 10am on ITV1 and ITVX.
