Coleen Nolan admitted to Loose Women viewers she'd been put in 'the hot seat,' on Tuesday after earning a promotion on the show, issuing a polite request to her colleagues within moments of cameras rolling.
The singer and Celebrity Big Brother star has been part of the furniture on the long-running ITV show for years now and, had already been on the panel just days earlier, before it was revealed that she would be the host, rather than just a panellist for the latest show. Confirmation of Coleen's boost up to Loose Women anchor came when This Morning presenters Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary crossed live to the studio with just over half an hour of their own programme to go.
Viewers have come to expect either Ruth Langsford, Kay Adams, Christine Lampard or Charlene White to be the one leading proceedings on the lunchtime discussion show, so when they realised it was Coleen at the helm, many were quick to react online. Fully in favour of the move, one Coleen fan took to Twitter to post: "Oh yes day made my fave is anchor on #loosewomen,know you will be fab as per usual Coleen."
