Loose Women panellist Linda Robson has shared the hilarious reason why she never anchors an instalment of the show. The 65-year-old has been on the ITV show since 2012.
However, for the decade she’s appeared on the panel she has never been in charge of the often heated debates and discussions. The Birds of a Feather actress revealed that she once asked if she could anchor an episode but was rejected by the show's bosses, reports Daily Record.
"It’s like going to work with your mates every day, and we’re all very supportive of each other," Linda said. She then revealed: "I did ask once if I could be the anchor on Loose Women. They said, ‘Are you joking? You’ll end up swearing or something. No you can’t'."

Earlier this year, she was left horrified, after she accidentally swore live on the show during a heated road rage debate. Linda admitted she often uses her car's horn out of frustration from rude drivers who cut in front of her on the roads.
As Linda admitted she was "a honker", her fellow panellist Janet Street Porter asked: "Do you get the finger out the window as well?" "Yeah I do that and all, middle finger" Linda confessed before she flipped off the audience in the studio live on air.
A shocked Janet said: "I didn’t ask you to demonstrate it! We all know [what it is]!" Jane Moore, who was hosting proceedings, quickly reassured viewers and explained: "That will be pixilated on capture."
