Alison and Dermot then feared she was going to be sick as she begged staff to bring the ride to a halt. But out of distress, she swore. "Oh my goodness I'm going to be sick! Stop the ride! F****** hell," she screamed, before covering her mouth.

Alison told viewers: "Now if you watched the show yesterday you might have noticed that Josie, after being pushed to the limit and almost being sick on the Isle of Wight theme park ride... accidentally let slip a rude word.

"We didn't hear it did we?" Dermot added: "She apologised yesterday. We
