Holly Willoughby made an X-rated gherkin confession as she made her This Morning return.
The presenter, 41, appeared on Monday’s episode (October 24) of the ITV programme alongside Phillip Schofield after taking a week-long break over the October half-term.
As they introduced the day’s schedule, Holly objected to the use of gherkins in a dish from Clodagh McKenna.

She said: “I don’t like a gherkin. They look a bit weird.”
Holly was then asked by her co-star Phil: “What did you say earlier on? How did you describe gherkins?”
Holly looked embarrassed and laughed.
Shaking her head, she later replied: “I don’t think I can say but I said they may resemble a certain part of Shrek’s anatomy and that’s as far as I will go.
“Moving on!”
As Holly tried to continue with the programme, the camera cut to Clodagh who could be seen waving a gherkin in the air and Holly responded: “Put it down, Clodagh!”

Phil added: “I’m never quite going to see one in the same way. We’re back then!”
Earlier in the show, Holly had said it was “good to be back” on the show following her and Phil’s week-long break.
The duo were replaced by Dermot O’Leary and Alison Hammond over the October half-term.
While Holly and Phil seemed happy to be back presenting This Morning, viewers were more divided on their return.

Posting to Twitter, one viewer wrote: “Saw Phil and Holly were back . Turned off. Bring back Dermot and Alison permanently!!!”
Another commented: “Oh bugger, they’re back.”
Meanwhile, a third said: “I thought I’d have another week of viewing to go but regrettably they’re back.”
A fourth viewer harshly quipped: “Holly and Phil irritating beyond! Right off to save electricity by tv going off.”
This Morning airs from 10am on weekdays on ITV.
