Phillip Schofield stuns fans with X-rated remark on Celebrity Juice

He dropped the C-bomb!

Phillip Schofield stunned Celebrity Juice viewers by dropping the C-word when he was caught out cheating!

The 55-year-old is usually on his best behaviour while presenting daytime show This Morning, but on Thursday night, we saw a whole different side to him!

And who knew it was so sweary?!

Phil, who was on This Morning co-host Holly Willoughby’s team on Celebrity Juice, got pulled up by the show’s host, Keith Lemon, at the start of the episode.

After introducing Phil as “the George Clooney of daytime TV”, cheeky Keith said he had a score to settle with the TV favourite!

Keith told him: “Probably one the biggest mistakes you’ve done, Phil, is on here when you’ve been cheating.”

Co-star Fearne Cotton chipped in: “You’re such a cheat!”

Keith clarified: “You’re a big dirty cheat!”

Naturally, one can’t throw out a cheating allegation without some form of evidence, so Keith went on to produce three clips which he said proved Phillip’s tendency to bend the rules.

One showed Phil giving Holly a helping hand during the box game, another showed him tussling Strictly’s Ore Oduba to the floor in a game of battlechips, and finally, using his hands to pick up chicken in a mouth-only honey race.

Keith shouted “dirty cheat” at him once again, and got the audience to chant “cheating Schofe”.

Schofield, however, had perfectly valid explanations for all three: he was helping a friend, Ore just fell over and, er, well he had no explanation for the third, and sheepishly admitted he had indeed cheated.

Keith gave Phil the chance to apologise to viewers, asking him to look directly down the camera and grovel.

Phil said: “I would like to apologise for the numerous occasions we have quite obviously got evidence of. I will maintain in one of them I was off-balance, in another I was helping a friend, and in the third one, I was a cheating (bleep).”

That ‘bleep’, FYI, was a very naughty word rhyming with hunt…

It wasn’t the only time Phil swore during the episode, either!

At the start, after growing bored with being ignored, he shouted out: “Introduce me, for [bleep’s] sake. Let me speak!”

Viewers were pretty surprised to see the usually squeaky clean Phil swearing on TV and took to social media in droves to chat about the moment.

Celebrity Juice continues Thursdays at 10pm on ITV2.
