THIS MORNING MONDAY-FRIDAY, 10AM, ITV LIFESTYLE

Josie Gibson is having a ball sitting on the hallowed This Morning sofa as one of the daytime show's regular stand-in presenters.

The Big Brother 2010 champion has been a member of the team since joining the ITV favourite as a competition announcer in 2019 and, after filling in for Holly Willoughby last year, she has gone on to front the programme alongside all four main hosts - Holly, Phillip Schofield, Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary.

This week, Josie's back at the helm from Monday to Wednesday, alongside Craig Doyle, as Holly and Phil take their summer break.

'I can't wait - I love working at This Morning so much, I've got the best job ever!' enthuses the bubbly Bristolian, 37, who, here, tells us about being back in the hot seat... 

How does it feel to be hosting This Morning again, Josie?

It is a massive deal - I still can't believe they trust me with the job! If you'd said to me, 'One day, you'll be hosting This Morning' - the biggest daytime TV show in the UK I'd have probably burst out laughing. Never in a million years did I think I'd be doing this. I feel honoured.

You've co-hosted the show with all four main stars now. Have you picked up any presenting tips?

Oh yes, from all of them. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for them. Alison said, 'Your job is to get the most out of the guests,' and would ring me up and talk me through the shows, giving lots of tips.
