THIS Morning viewers were surprised to tune in today – and see Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield missing from screens.
The pair, who host the ITV show from Monday to Thursday were taking a break, with Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford standing in.
Holly and Phillip have two weeks off the show for half term, which for most British schools begins either this week or next.
One surprised viewer tweeted: "I was not prepared for Ruth & Eamonn when I switched on #ThisMorning."
Many were pleased to see the change, with one posting: "Awww!! Love you guys in this morning."
Another wrote: "Brilliant looking forward to this half term."
The pair explained what was going on, with Eamonn explaining: "Hello, Monday morning. Here we are at the start of half term for a lot of people.
"It's the start of us – Monday through to Thursday, Eamonn and Ruth."
She added: "We're delighted to be here. Nice to have your company too. We've got a lot coming up for you this Monday."
Eamonn and Ruth also hosted This Morning throughout the summer while Holly escaped to Portugal with her husband Dan and their three children.
