Alice Beer annoys ITV This Morning viewers with microwave comments before showing £419 appliance

Alice Beer appeared to irk viewers of This Morning as she returned to the studio after last being seen out and about near Westminster when the Queen was lying in state. The presenter and consumer journalist joined Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield for her latest segment which focused on the 'must-have microwaves'.

Many people are turning to their trusty pinging machine during the cost of living crisis as they cost less to run than a conventional oven. However, Alice claimed that microwaves haven’t been used since the 1980s - and viewers of the ITV daytime show weren't having any of it.

"‘Mothers all over the country will be watching this with interest… The microwave – basically, we put it away after the ’80s didn’t we?" she said to the show's hosts while surrounded by different brands and variations of the kitchen appliance.
