Carol Vorderman sat in for Lorraine Kelly on ITV's Lorraine on Monday, July 11. The presenter was forced to miss her show after testing positive for Covid-19 over the weekend.
Good Morning Britain hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls introduced Carol during their own show on Monday. GMB's Ed Balls recalled a moment, earlier in the day, when he saw Carol entering the studio.
He described how he questioned: "Is that Carol Vorderman?" A confused Susanna Reid, his GMB co-host, told Carol: "I didn't think you were in for our programme and you're not..." It was then that the Countdown legend confirmed that she was stepping in for Lorraine.
