TV presenter Eamonn Holmes was caught out swearing on the GB News breakfast show after being unaware the cameras were still on.
The TV veteran, who was previously one of the hosts on ITV's This Morning, was speaking with his co-host Isabel Webster as they present the breakfast round up of news and features.
Whilst the programme returned after an advert break, the pair were unaware the cameras were back on them as they stayed engrossed in their conversation before dropping swearwords between them.
As the cameras returned to the pair in the GB News studio, Isabel could be heard saying: "I'm a b***h, if only they knew."
She then added: "Pussycat me."
In turn Eamonn responded to his co-host: "If only they knew!"
The former This Morning star then dropped a swearword himself as he asked: "Now, how the f*** do I get home today?"
At that point the pair's microphones were then turned off before Isabel then sprang to action as she realised she was back on air.
Eamonn appeared uncomfortable as he put his earpiece back in so they could continue the breakfast show.
The blunder from the two presenters didn't go unnoticed as they shared their reactions on social media.
One viewer tweeted: "This is why I love watching this channel and love @EamonnHolmes hope he gets home."
Another added: "This morning.. I don't think Eamonn Holmes realised they were live."
"Just watching that lovely Eamonn & Isabel on GB News, now choking on my cornflakes and clutching my pearls," said a third.
Another viewer wrote: "Oh dear Eamonn has dropped the F bomb live on air."
The blunder from Eamonn comes after the star launched a tell-all attack on former colleague Phillip Schofield following news of his affair with a young co-worker.
Last week on GB News Eamonn discussed Phil's recent interviews with showbiz reporter Ellie Phillips and his co-anchor Isabel Webster, as he declared: "We're not supposed to criticise him in case he harms himself but he still thinks he can go on and say lies, lies, lies.
"He's admitted he is a liar. You should see the emails, the texts and the messages I've been sent over the past week. I think he's getting off very very lucky.'
"Like everybody else he lied to me, I was happy to stand by him until I found out that he was lying... This isn't about him being gay, not in the slightest."
