The former I’m A Celebrity star, 39, is filling in for Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard on the ITV daytime programme this week alongside former X Factor host Dermot. On today’s episode, they treated viewers to the daily Spin to Win, but after one caller rung in, Dermot was left stunned.
Viewer Barry entered the competition and won an impressive £1000, leaving him overjoyed as he realised. And it was certainly a treat he deserved, having just returned home from hospital amid a bladder cancer diagnosis. ‘You’ve won £1000 Barry, what are you going to spend it on!’ Josie told him.
Barry replied: ‘That made my day, I’ve just been to hospital with bladder cancer.’. While Dermot replied with a sympathetic response, Josie, who clearly hadn’t heard, said: ‘Aw, Barry, lovely.’. Her co-host looked at her with a baffled expression, stunned by what she’d said.
As Josie moved on, asking Barry if he had anyone with him, the line seemed to break up, with the hosts wishing him Merry Christmas before the end of the segment. Just moments before, Josie reminded Barry that this was a ‘live television show’, while Dermot held back his hysterics.
