Phillip Schofield 'pinches' from ITV This Morning as he's caught red-handed in cheeky video

Phillip Schofield was caught red-handed as he 'pinched' from the This Morning studio. The presenter has been back at the helm of the ITV daytime show this week alongside co-star and pal Holly Willoughby.

During Tuesday's show (March 7), the hosting duo were joined by The Bay star Marsha Tomason, who plays DS Jenn Townsend in the ITV drama, to reveal all about the new series as well as Dr Nighat who was on hand to tell viewers the singles symptoms to look out for, how to treat it and why she thinks there has been a recent spike in cases and the TikTok famous couple with a 37-year age gap who shared their plans to start a family.

As for food, Gino D'Acampo was seen back home on the island of Sardinia where he headed to a cork factory before cooking up his delicious creamy vegetable risotto. Meanwhile, in the studio, Holly, 42, and Phillip, 60, were joined by Alex Hollywood who whipped up her one-pan Mexican-inspired chipotle chicken perfect for a weeknight dinner.

And it appears Phillip was a fan of the latter as he was seen nicking some of the chicken from the This Morning kitchen. Looking at the camera with the plate of food in his hand, the father-of-two said with a grin: "What?" As he started to walk off, a voice behind the camera laughed: "Come back with the chicken."

But the Oldham-born presenter continued to make his way off the set, periodically looking back and saying with a cheeky smile: "What?" He posted the video to Instagram with no caption but a message on the clip read: "@alexhollywood_1 your chicken was SO good, I've pinched it."

Earlier in the programme, Phillip halted the show to issue a clarification
