During their live chat, she said: “Well look, we don’t want to give anything away because Emmerdale is obviously on tonight at 7:30pm. “I just hope you’re still going to be with us because we know that the car crash is going to be a bad one.” To which the actor cheekily replied: “Maybe I’m dead?” Lorraine shrieked in response: “No, don’t say that! Don’t say that, don’t say that!”

Enjoying the dramatic exchange, Lewis teased the audience further, stating: “We’ll find out!” Lorraine ended the interview by saying: “Now we have to, well we’ll all be watching anyway, so lovely to see you!”
