Ben Shephard forced to apologise as Phil Vickery swears live on This Morning
It was a chaotic cooking segment on the ITV daytime show
THIS Morning viewers were up in arms as they accused veteran show chef Phil Vickery of dishing up a “raw” and “runny” omelette to hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard.
It came shortly before ITV anchor Ben, 50, was forced to apologise for Phil’s language – after a viewer claimed he had let slip a naughty swear word.

The drama played out during a segment on Tuesday’s This Morning episode, where Phil, 63, was showing viewers how to make the perfect omelette.
He used three eggs for his recipe, and showcased a variety of omelette options including a traditional cheese and tomato one, an omelette with herbs and a folded omelette against the clock.
Yet it was during whipping up the latter, which failed to set quickly in the hot pan, where fans called out the foodie for his alleged cursing.
They were quick to pick up him seemingly uttering the words “s**t, how dare you” as he prepared to whipped up the snack in seconds.
It came as Ben warned him “not to cheat” in the timed challenge.
Shortly after the commercial break, Ben was forced to apologise for Phil’s foul language, even though it was unclear to many if he said “s**t” or “shoot” – claiming a user on X had flagged it to them.
He said: “Pressure does things to people doesn’t it?
“Apparently people forget where they are.
“Apparently someone thinks that our Phil, when we were forcing him to cook very fast, may have been a little bit flavoursome with his language.
“There was seasoning in his language which might not be appropriate this time of day.”

Many more This Morning viewers were bothered about whether the food was in fact edible.
One speculated: “Those omelettes look awful. And they’re undercooked.”
Another sarcastically wrote: “A raw egg omelette. Delicious.”
A third mused: “That omelette didn’t look that appetising,” while one put: “Gooey eggs = raw.”
A fan then commented: “Give me a runny omelette and you’ll be getting it straight back.”
One then quipped: “I like my eggs dead tho Vickers lol not gooey.”
