Talk TV presenter Piers Morgan had to pull out of his show after falling sick and being left a "puking gibbering wreck".
The 58-year-old wrote on Twitter on Tuesday that he had fallen ill with food poisoning after eating a selection of "dodgy sushi" in recent days. The TV host admitted that while presenting the show on Monday night, he felt violently ill but mustered through it, but explained that the reason he may have looked 'queasy' was down to the food poisoning.
Piers went on to say that his Talk TV colleagues Harry Cole and Kate McCann would be covering for him as he recovers from his sickness. He wrote: "UPDATE: Some dodgy sushi has rendered me a puking gibbering wreck (which is why I looked so queasy on air last night) so I won’t be hosting @PiersUncensored tonight.

"My colleagues @MrHarryCole & @KateEMcCann are kindly stepping into the hot seat." Following Piers' admission, fans wished the presenter a speedy recovery, reports The Mirror.
"Nothing worse than food poisoning. Hope you feel better soon," one replied. "Sushi is the devil. Get better soon," another echoed.
While someone else added: "Let's hope it's only tempura-ry and, alas, you'll rice and shine to host again tomorrow."
Another added: "Wishing you well . Hope you recover soon." And one follower said: "Got food poisoned last week. It's not fun. Get well soon."
