Gino D’Acampo left This Morning’s Holly Willoughby and Dermot O’Leary flustered when he asked whether he had missed “any news” over the past month.
The chef has been missing from the show for a while as he has been in Italy, but on his return he asked the hosts “any news that I should know?” seemingly referring to Phillip Schofield’s exit.
Viewers were quick to pick up on the dig and they took to Twitter to share their thoughts.
Claire Bear said: “Absolutely pmsl at @Ginofantastico on #Thismorning any news???? #Gino” [Sic]
Aimz added: “Well Gino doesn’t disappoint does he ‘I’ve been in Italy for a month, any news I need to know about?’ Que poor Holly looking awkward #thismorning”

Mostly Stupid added: “I KNEW Gino was going to bring the Schofield saga. F*****g love it #itvthismorning #thismorning”
Lee Hood shared: “Gino is a legend when he just asked ‘is there any news since I’ve been gone’ GINO GINO GINO #ThisMorning” [Sic]
Jonathan Lansana concluded: “Gino never disappoints, causing Dermot and Holly to squirm a bit making light of the Phil saga #ThisMorning”.
When introducing himself he explained how he “wasn’t allowed to make anything with aubergines” before saying: “Everything is under control, I’m back. Anything in the news I should know?”
As Dermot looked taken aback he asked: “Why is Dermot not talking?”
Gino went on to show Holly and Dermot how to make his tiramisu and he continued to cause mayhem during the segment.
He whisked his egg whites before holding the bowel over his head to see if they were stiff enough.
Dermot recommended he mixed the ingredients using his hands and he responded: “Oh, it’s quite satisfying though, it’s like putting your finger into a bubbly…”
Holly giggled and put her hand over her mouth as she feared he would take a rude turn.
When Holly warned him he only had one minute left to finish the segment, he responded with a cheeky: “I told you what I can do in one minute”.
Holly could not control her giggles as she said: “We are going to come back and made some cocktails soon as we all agree we need a drink!”
