Eamonn Holmes and his GB News co-host have been caught swearing on TV while thinking they were off-air.
On Tuesday (June 6) he was hosting his breakfast show alongside Isabel Webster when the show went to an advert break. After it returned, they were both caught swearing as they seemed to not realise they were back on air.
Isabel said: “I’m a [bleep], if only they knew… Pussycat me.” And then, Eamonn was checking his script and muttered: “Now, how the [bleep] do I get home today?”
Viewers could then hear a shriek off-camera before their microphones were muted. And the pair then learned that they were back on air. Eamonn said to Isabel: “Are you sure we’re on air? Would be nice if somebody spoke to us.”
They quickly apologised to viewers for their mistake, before getting back into the show.

Viewers were quick to take to Twitter, and seemed to find plenty of humour in the blunder. One joked: “Just watching that lovely Eamonn & Isabel on GB News, now choking on my cornflakes and clutching my pearls.”
