Good Morning Britain fans left in hysterics over Ben Shephard's underwear blunder

Good Morning Britain returned to our screens this morning for the latest instalment of the ITV breakfast show.

Ben Shephard and Susanna Reid were on hand to wake up the nation alongside Kate Garraway and Richard Arnold.

The GMB stars were left in stitches during Thursday’s edition of the show after Ben made a massive blunder during a competition segment.

Ben, 45, introduced the TV competition by asking viewers “How would you like to win a life-changing £300,000 pants?” instead of “pounds”.

The presenter’s blunder left his co-stars in fits of laughter.

Susanna, 49, joked: “That would change your life wouldn’t it?”

Ever the professional Ben continued to hand over to Andi Peters, who appeared via a video link from Ballymena to tell viewers about the tax free cash giveaway.

Handing over proceedings to Andi, Ben said: “I tell you who does have 300,000 pairs of pants is Andi Peters, no one likes underwear like this man.”

A chuckling Andi responded: “I love my pants and i’ll happily give away 300,000 pairs of pants but we’re giving away £300,000.

Ben’s hilarious gaffe didn’t go unnoticed by viewers at home.

Taking to Twitter one fan joked: “Can I have Piers Morgan’s pants please?”

Another added: “Pants. Lol. WTF?”
