ITV This Morning viewers spot problem as Rochelle Humes and Vernon Kay enter row with TV chef

This Morning returned to screens on Bank Holiday Monday (August 29) with two familiar faces back hosting the show. Vernon Kay and Rochelle Humes have now stepped in to front the ITV programme and will be taking the reins for the rest of the week.

The pair are taking over from Ruth Langsford and Rylan Clark who presented the show together last week. This Morning viewers were thrilled to see Ruth back on screen for the first time this year alongside her 'TV son' Rylan.

The presenter shake-up is part of a summer line-up where viewers have seen different hosts such as Alison Hammond, Dermot O'Leary, Josie Gibson and Craig Doyle step in for Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield whilst they take their annual summer break.

Whilst Rochelle and Vernon were back taking centre stage on Monday, the pair appeared to clash with TV chef Clodagh McKenna.

As the Irish cook demonstrated how to make pancakes during today's cooking segment, the hosts entered into a disagreement after picking up on Clodagh's pronunciation of the word 'yoghurt'.

Whilst making blueberry pancakes, Clodagh told the presenters: "You could use yoghurt if you wanted to", whilst pronouncing it as yo-ghurt.

Vernon quickly responded in his Bolton accent: "Yoghurt?" as former The Saturdays singer Rochelle agreed with her co-host and said: "I also say yoghurt."

Sparking a debate, Clodagh then said: "Can we throw it out to the floor? Yoghurt or yo-ghurt," with most of the This Morning crew responding "yoghurt" but one agreeing with Clodagh.

Rochelle then said, "It's fine it's yoghurt but we'll move on."

Presenter Alice Beer then got involved in the debate as Rochelle then asked: "What are you saying Alice?" with Vernon adding: "It's serious now if Alice Beer's involved."

Alice then said: "It's pronounced 'frog' therefore it's 'yoghurt'.

The TV chef then responded: "You're eating into my time. You have your own slot ok?".

Before things got frosty, Clodagh then said: "I'm only joking, I love you Alice."

But during the debate, This Morning viewers couldn't help but point out another problem with the cooking segment as they took to Twitter to air their thoughts.

Fans of the show were quick to notice Clodagh was wearing her hair down and feared that strands of her hair could fall into the food.

@realjaneaird asked: "Why doesn’t Clodagh tie her hair back when cooking?".

@angenevs tweeted: "I wish she would tie her hair back whilst cooking."

@DinghyDiver wrote: "Mmmmmmm blueberry pancakes with added hair."
