This Morning's Holly Willoughby said she was on the verge of tears as the show prepares to move away from the iconic studio for tomorrow's episode.
The 41-year-old presenter fronted Monday's edition of the ITV flagship daytime programme alongside Phillip Schofield. This Morning has been filmed from White City, the former home of the BBC, since 2018.
However, Gyles Brandreth announced at the top of today's programme that tomorrow's episode will be hosted from Buckingham Palace to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations. He said: "You will be taking a look back at the Queen’s magnificent 70 years of sovereign, with a host of special guests.

"We look forward to welcoming you live from 10 o’clock tomorrow morning as the celebrations begin at Buckingham Palace.” Holly said she was emotional after the announcement.
She said: "I’m so excited. That almost made me cry. Downton Abbey and now Buckingham Palace - we do get the keys to all the best houses in Britain, don’t we?"
Ahead of today's show, Phil revealed he was honoured to present Tuesday's show from Buckingham Palace. He said: "What a privilege to get permission from Buckingham Palace for this special show.
"We are all really looking forward to getting a little more insight into the Queen’s life and family history, and although we have had quite a few royal moments on This Morning over the years, to be at her residence during her Platinum Jubilee year is pretty special.”
Holly added: "I have been very lucky to have been a part of many ‘firsts’ on This Morning, but to present live from Her Majesty’s home during such a special year for her is a dream come true. I cannot wait to have a look around!”"
