Gino D'Acampo causes This Morning stir over moment that 'couldn't be repeated' on TV

Phillip Schofield has claimed that Gino D'Acampo did something This Morning that 'couldn't be repeated' on TV, as the Italian chef prepared to appear on the ITV show again on Tuesday.

Family Fortunes presenter Gino took an extensive break from the daytime programme earlier this year as he returned to his homeland but, just as he launches a new ITV series of his own, he recently made a return to This Morning to join Phillip and co-host Holly Willoughby. He was at the centre of a 'take over' on the show last week, which prompted an Instagram warning from Holly to viewers at home to 'hold on tight' as she predicted things might take a turn.

Holly echoed those sentiments on air and her suspicions proved to be correct as Gino got up to all sorts of high jinks on set, including telling Holly that she "looked like a Flintstone," as she hosted the show in a leopard print dress. Another chaotic moment saw Gino embarrass a woman manning the This Morning phonelines and, as Gino prepared to lead a cooking demo on Tuesday, Phillip hinted that there was something else Gino did last week that wasn't suitable for broadcast.

As she and Phillip teased what was coming up on the show, Holly said: "Well it got worse than that," with Phillip adding: "It did get a lot worse than that. Stuff we can't actually repeat."
