Ben Shephard expressed his enthusiasm for the programme’s upcoming content.
“This autumn we have a lot of wonderful new content coming your way. Take a look,” he invited viewers before rolling a sneak peek clip.
It was during the preview clips that viewers were greeted with the sight of Fern.
Alongside a picturesque backdrop of the sea, Fern’s brief appearance sparked a buzz among the show’s fans.
Cat Deeley narrated over the clip. “One of those new adventures is the return of an old friend,” she said, referring to Fern’s history with the show.
