This Morning viewers claimed they had to switch off the show after a grisly doctor segment left them feeling ‘sick’ and ‘put them off their lunch’.
During Wednesday’s instalment of the ITV daytime programme, hosts Cat Deeley, 47, and Ben Shephard, 49, returned to our screens and were joined by Marianne, a podiatrist ready to dispense advice for foot-related issues.
The duo are back on our screens presenting their usual Monday to Thursday slot, while Alison and Dermot will be back hosting the show on Fridays.
Ben first kicked off the segment by thanking the medical specialist for coming on the show.
He said: ‘Thank you for coming in. We’ve already been asking you for information because we have a number of issues between us and our families but who are you looking to help today?’
