ITV This Morning's Holly Willoughby loses it live on show thanks to viewer's 'brilliant' call

Holly Willoughby couldn't contain her glee as she finally got an important moment during the latest episode of This Morning. The presenter was back fronting the show alongside Phillip Schofield on Thursday (May 26) which was their last show before a short break.

And as ever, the pair were poised and ready for the latest game of Spin To Win which can often cause drama and chaos in the ITV studio. The regular segment sees viewers of the ITV daytime show given a chance to win up to £3,000. All they have to do is enter and then answer the phone without saying 'hello' and instead, using that day's catchphrase.

They then get a choice, to either let Phillip spin the wheel or let Holly dive in to her box of tombola balls. More often than not, players will opt for the wheel but Holly got her moment of glory on today's show thanks to their latest caller.

The viewer said they had been entering "since August last year" before he chose the 41-year-old's tombola. Getting excited, she spun the box of balls and as she pulled one out, she happily shouted that she "never gets to do this".

And it must of been her lucky day as she grabbed the highest possible prize of £3,000. The mum-of-three couldn't hide her delight. Screaming as she ran towards the camera: "Three thousand pounds! You've got the jackpot!" She then ran back towards her co-host while waving her arms saying: "I've never got the jackpot!"

Holly then continued to go wild and chucked the ball across the studio, screaming: "Yes! You've got the jackpot," as Phillip looked on in shock and humour at his co-host's reaction. "Three grand, I can't believe it," Holly then exclaimed while breathless. "That's brilliant," Phillip, 60, commented.

And This Morning viewers also enjoyed the moment. @Charlie__Tweets said: "Haha love Holly getting so excited because she got three grande on the balls #SpintoWin #ThisMorning @hollywills." @DannyDenay predicted: "Holly finally picked a £3k ball and now there'll be a run of people picking balls and getting naff all #ThisMorning."
