ITV This Morning's Dermot O'Leary holds tongue as he's changed by co-star

Dermot O'Leary has shared how he has been changed by his This Morning co-star, Alison Hammond.

The broadcaster returned to front Wednesday's edition of ITV's flagship daytime programme. At the start of the show, Dermot revealed he attended Elton's John's gig at the 02 Arena last night.

However, the 50-year-old admitted he was frustrated during the show. He said: "I didn't take too many pictures because I had that thing where there was a lady two or three rows in front of me.

He added: "She was sat on her phone when there was a song she didn't know and when there was a song she did know she just recorded it and then sat on the phone again."

Dermot was visibly frustrated as Alison asked if he wanted to say something. The former X Factor host confirmed he did but heeded Alison's advice as he remained tight-lipped.

He said: "This is what you've taught me, to be more tolerant." The hosts went on to front a jam-packed episode that included interviews with a number of EastEnders stars ahead of the British Soap Awards.

The two were earlier in hysterics after an error as they appeared on Lorraine to reveal what was coming up in today's episode. They were caught unaware on the link as host Ranvir Singh said: "Are are you ready for us yet my loves? Have we come to you a bit early?"

Dermot apologised as the hosts were in stitches when they realised they were on air. He said: "We couldn't hear you. I'm so sorry."

Dermot styled out the gaffe as he added: "Hi Ranvir, we're totally ready because here's what's coming up for you on the show today. Josie will be finding out what it's like to live under the sea as she becomes a real life mermaid."
