Holly Willoughby was anxious as she was joined by a special guest on today's show.
The 41-year-old fronted Wednesday's edition of the ITV flagship daytime programme alongside Phillip Schofield. The two were joined by Holly's dog, Bailey, at the opening of the show.
However, the presenter admitted she was concerned about what the Labrador could get up to on the set. She said: "It is a bit like having your kids here because you get that anxiety that anything could happen at any moment.

Holly revealed Bailey had caused chaos before the show started as she knocked her co-hosts cup of tea off the table before the broadcast started: She added: "She's already slightly let herself down this morning. Being quite a big dog with a big waggy tail, she walked straight past Phil's cup of tea and knocked it clean off. It doesn't look that bad."
Phil described the dog as "well trained", but Holly said there was one issue with being a dog owner. The presenter added: "She is cute, she is cuddly, but she does have a very bad habit of leaving fluff around my house."
The broadcasters enlisted the help of Aggie Mckenzie, who shared tips later in the episode for how people can clean pet hair from their home.
