This Morning hosts Ben Shephard and Angela Scanlon were left shocked when a caller participating in a live game revealed they were dialing in from a funeral.

During Wednesday’s (25 February) episode of the ITV talk show, the pair hosted a gameshow segment called Spin to Windsay, where one viewer has the chance to win up to £12,000.

Before Scanlon spun the wheel on behalf of the contestant, caller Lorraine revealed that she was actually attending a funeral, leaving the hosts gobsmacked.

After winning a total prize of £7,000, an overjoyed Lorraine said: “That’s my uncle looking down on me.”
