ITV This Morning's Josie Gibson issues another apology to Johnny Vegas as he sends her public message

Josie Gibson has sent another apology to Johnny Vegas after she was left both mortified and in fits of laughter during her latest stint on This Morning. The presenter was back at the helm of the ITV daytime show on Tuesday (August 9) alongside Craig Doyle.

The presenting pair were joined live on the show by the comedian to chat about his Channel 4 show, Johnny Vegas: Carry on Glamping, and the latest site he and assistant Bev Dixon have acquired. The interview got off to a comedic start when Josie struggled to understand what their guest was saying.

But things took a turn later when Johnny, from St Helens, explained that not everything worked out how he had hoped, telling the story of how a ferry had caught on fire while transporting his new minibus as well as a whole array of other problems.

He said: "We always said I don't want to do that show where because you're on telly everything works out for you. It doesn't, you know. And it's life isn't it?" Josie then replied, quite dead-pan: "It certainly doesn't for you." But as she began her next sentence, Johnny erupted into laughter.

Josie and Craig also burst out laughing as the mum-of-one apologised. Johnny then said: "Shall I just walk off and cry now?" before he got up and put his face into his hands as he faked sobbing noises. He didn't make it far off the set and returned to the sofa where Josie was crying with laughter and insisted: "I meant on the show!"

"That's the best thing I've ever heard in an interview," Johnny said through laughter. "'Life doesn't go to plan does it?' 'Well it doesn't for you.'" But Josie said: "I'm so sorry!" as she struggled to compose herself in order to progress with the chat. As she rolled round in fits of laughter, Craig said: "He was feeling good about himself up to that point."

Johnny jokingly walked off the This Morning set (ITV)

While all things ended on a good note on the show, Josie's comment was later proved to be true as he later tweeted Josie to tell her: "Sending hugs @Josiestweet You were right, missed my train."

But former Big Brother winner Josie clearly felt guilty for her comments as she responded: "I didn't mean for it to come out like that, it's only because I loved the first series, I've never known anything like it, especially when it came to poor Patricia. Send My love to Bev. Loved meeting you today."

Johnny was also harboring no hard feelings as it was all in jest and he replied to the TV star: "You too. Great craic. Thanks for having me over."

This Morning viewers, however, found the whole thing hilarious. @Charlie__Tweets tweeted: "Telly is always funnier when Johnny Vegas is on. #ThisMorning." @bethanlooms laughed: "Johnny Vegas always manages to de-rail an interview #ThisMorning." @ledcafc added: "Johnny Vegas on #ThisMorning cracks me up."
