This Morning descends into chaos over Holly’s smutty PASTA comment

Mac and cheese gets dirty...

| Updated:

Who knew a simple dish like macaroni cheese could be turned into something so filthy?

Leave that up to Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield who burst into giggles when Holly’s cue about the cheesy pasta dish ended up sounding rather more rude than she meant it to on today’s This Morning.

Just after interviewing Debbie McGee and Giovanni Pernice about their Strictly experience, the presenters were heading towards an ad break when Phil turned to Debbie and asked if her macaroni cheese was her favourite dish.

Debbie said it was, to which Holly insisted they stick around and “hold off training for another half an hour” because Phil Vickery was about to cook one up in honour of Thanksgiving in America.

She then launched into her ad link: “After the break, whether you like it gooey or creamy or crusty with extra cheese…” before breaking off into fits of laughter.

Schofe obviously went with her, descending into hysterics, and on the sofa opposite, Giovanni got the joke and started laughing too.

Debbie, on the other hand, was a little slow on the uptake and it took a while for her face to register why everyone else was laughing – but then she burst into fits of giggles too.

As the four of them couldn’t stop, the show went to its ad break for the hosts to compose themselves.

Viewers at home thought it was pretty funny too:

But most found it even more hilarious that Debbie had taken so long to register the joke!

We mustn’t be too hard on the Strictly Come Dancing front runner, she’d only moments before finished telling Holly and Phil how tired she was following the weekend’s show.

Debbie and Giovanni found themselves in the bottom two alongside Jonnie Peacock and Oti Mabuse. Debbie managesd to survive to dance another week.

However, she explained how she’s really struggling this week with exhaustion and a pulled muscle in her back on top of having to learn two routines.

But she also said she was having the most fun and was really enjoying her Strictly experience.
