Distracted ITV This Morning viewers 'feel sorry' for Marti Pellow as some jump to singer's defence

This Morning viewers were left distracted as Marti Pellow appeared on the show - and some were soon left jumping to his defence. The Wet Wet Wet frontman was on the ITV daytime show to chat about his current show and upcoming tour.

The 58-year-old, who shot to fame as the lead singer the band in the 1980s alongside Neil Mitchell, Tommy Cunningham, Graeme Clark, and Lindsey McCauley, also chatted to Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary about his early career.

"What was it that inspired you at that age when you were 13 and putting pen to paper?" Dermot asked to which Marti replied: "Going and watching bands. Going to watch live music and going to see bands."
