A hosting shake-up on This Morning has Ben Shephard replaced but fans have branded the familiar face joining Cat Deeley ‘a recipe for disaster’.
Cat, 48, usually hosts with Ben Shepard, 49, but since he has been away filming for another ITV show she has been joined by the likes of Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary instead.
However, Monday’s instalment saw her presenting alongside Andi Peters, 54, who usually delivers the latest competition details.
Jeff Brazier filled in for the competition segment from Innsbruck, Austria, but couldn’t resist taking a swipe at Andi.
Introducing the segment, Andi said: ‘If you’re dreaming of a white, Jeff Brazier has gone in search of some snow. Jeff, good morning! It looks glorious where you are!’
To which Jeff quipped back: ‘Morning Cat and Andi. Andi don’t worry, I’ll do the cold ones!’

Cat and Andi roared with laughter at Jeff made a cheeky joke before he delivered the competition details
Both hosts erupted into fits of laughter at the cheeky joke as Andi replied: ‘Jeff, I thank you for that!’
Viewers took to social media to discuss their thoughts on Andi co-hosting with Cat.
One wrote: ‘This Andi Peters and Cat Deeley partnership looks like a recipe for disaster. I don’t think Cat fancies Andi Peters as a co-presenter.’
Another said: ‘Andi is a bit over the top for a gloomy Monday morning.’
‘Calm down Andi, calm down. Stop jumping to the next thing,’ a third posted.
However, some fans saw Andi as a welcome addition to the This Morning sofa.
‘Cat seems happier and more relaxed today due to Andi,’ said one.
Another enjoyed his hosting so much, they wrote: ‘Andi Peters back on tomorrow please.’
