A hilarious resurfaced clip of Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard in a cooking segment on This Morning is doing the rounds again on social media – leading viewers to gush that ‘British daytime TV is the best’.
In the clip, which was originally aired during the show in May, the ITV duo were chatting to blind content creator Claire Sisk as she demonstrated how she makes cooking accessible.
To mark Global Accessibility Awareness Day, the social media star cooked a chicken and tomato pasta live on air, showcasing how new technology can help people with visual impairments whilst cooking.
But viewers were left in hysterics when Claire hilariously took down Cat with a witty one-liner.
They were discussing Claire’s daughter, who had just graduated from university and was beginning her law placement, with the TikTok star joking that she ‘gets her brains from her’.

Cat then said: ‘I was about to say, is there nothing you can’t do?,’ to which Claire speedily quipped back: ‘See!’
The This Morning presenters erupted into laughter, with Cat nodding and awkwardly remarking: ‘Yep, yeah, yeah’.
Cat tried to compose herself but Ben couldn’t stop the giggles as they attempted to continue with the cooking segment.
Instagram account @BritishMemes reposted the footage on their page on Thursday and it has already been seen by more than 292,000 people.
The account wrote in the caption: ‘British daytime Tv is the best’ – and it seems that lots of other users agree, taking to the comments to add:

Claire, who is from Hereford, was only 29 years old when she first started losing her eyesight.
After her first stroke in April 2009, Claire suffered another one five months later which resulted in her developing Best macular degeneration – a condition causing the clone cells in the eye to die.
During a previous appearance on This Morning, she explained: ‘I taught myself everything so I could still be a brilliant mum even though I was going blind.’
In November 2017, Claire woke up to find that she had lost the vast majority of her vision as a result of her Retinal Dystrophy.
She said: ‘The way I can explain it is that I have little bits of vision on the peripheral field but a small left corner [of vision] in both eyes.
As a result of this development, Claire was officially registered as blind six years ago.

But despite the devastating diagnosis, Claire hit back at people who assume those with disabilities can’t live independent lives.
Walking viewers through a typical day in her life, she said: ‘There are a lot of misconceptions about people who are blind – mainly that we can’t do things for ourselves, but you couldn’t be more wrong.’
During the segment, Claire used a white cane to walk to her local supermarket – where she says other shoppers accused her of faking her blindness.
Claire previously told Herts Live that a man yelled at her: ‘You’re not blind because you’re using a phone.’
She explained: ‘Food shopping is difficult and it was actually in a supermarket that I was accused of faking my sight loss. That is the reason I started posting on social media.’
As she browsed the aisles, Claire relied on apps on her phone which read out the name and price of products.
Explaining how it can ‘take ages’, the mother says she follows the strip of lights on the ceiling to walk down the aisles.
She added: ‘I know where I am in the aisle, I know I’m walking straight and I know when I’m at the end of the aisle.
