Good Morning Britains star Ed Balls appeared desperate for an ad break as she shared his seemingly annoyed reaction to the Oscars-filled show. The former Labour MP was back on hosting duties on the ITV news programme on Monday morning (March 12) alongside Susanna Reid.
As expected, as well as the latest news headlines, the first show of the week was dominated by coverage of the 95th Acadamy Awards after they took place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday evening (March 12). Susanna and Ed were joined throughout the programme via video link by Ross King, who was live on the blue carpet at Vanity Fair's after-party while Noe Phillips was trying to catch the stars at Elton John's Oscars party.
But things got a bit awkward when Noel tried his luck and attempted to sneak into the singer's star-studded charity event. "We are going to try and get into the party, apparently Emma Watson, Donatella Versace are just a few of the famous people in there," Noel told the hosts and viewers watching at home.

"Let's see if we can gatecrash it," the reporter added before trying to walk past the men in suits who were on guard at the celebrity bash. GMB's North America correspondent was told by the guard: "Sorry the party is over - no entry please." Noel then quipped back: "We can't come in? But Elton said we could come in."
Laughing to himself and looking at the camera, the security guard insisted: "No, you can't. The party is over," and ushered him away. Turning back to the camera and speaking to GMB hosts, Noel said: "Well we did try guys."
Susanna then chipped in from the London-based studio: "Looks like someone's about to close the curtains behind you there, Noel. What a shame. You did your best."
The presenter then said she felt for the presenter as she explained a previous similar situation she had experienced herself. Ed asked if she watched the awards show as she replied: "You know, I watched some of it but haven't watched all of it. Have you?" He said: "No. Only because you told me..."
But he suddenly stopped himself, waved his hands and added: "Let's not go there." Susanna looked at him slightly confused as she asked: "What did I tell you?" But Ed continued to shake his head as he repeated: "Let's not go there, let's not go there."
Susanna was still baffled by what her co-host was referring to as she replied: "But I didn't say let's not go there." Before a flustered Ed demanded a break ad as he said: "Go to the break!" His co-star then laughed as she read the next link into an ad break.
