This Morning was left in chaos this week as Craig Doyle walked right off set live on air, leaving Josie Gibson with the Coupon King Jordon Cox to enjoy a ‘dinner date’

This Morning turned awkward this week as Craig Doyle abandoned the set partway through filming – leaving Josie Gibson to present alone.

Josie and Craig had been chatting to the ‘Coupon King’, AKA 27-year-old Jordon Cox, who was providing tonnes of ways to save money this summer while enjoying some delicious meals out. But as the pair joked Josie should go on a dinner date with Jordon as he’s so “money savvy”, Craig took being the third wheel a little too literally.

Intent on setting the pair up, Craig got up out of his chair to scoot Jordon’s seat closer to Josie, putting wine glasses in their hands as he joked about leaving them alone – before fleeing the set completely.

Craig Doyle walked right off the setAs they linked up with the Loose Women panel, who teased Josie about her ‘date’, Craig announced: “Just gonna pop next door for a minute! Be back in a minute, you guys enjoy yourselves!”

Shoving plates at Jordon, he joked: “Try the veal. Enjoy! Bye babe!” and stormed off. Jordon and Josie clinked glasses, with Josie joking: “Cheers to you! Thought you’d have given me more than a glass of water though.”

Craig set Josie and Jordon up on an awkward date
It comes after Josie suffered an awkward blunder after nearly falling over on set as Craig moonwalked into her. At the start of the show, Craig and Josie danced with Gyles Brandreth and Tom Swarbrick to hit track Just Can’t Get Enough – though fans quickly branded it “cringe” despite their impressive moves.

Josie had to put her hand to Craig’s back as he danced in front of her, nearly sending her off-balance. Craig told viewers: “There is a reason for all this, because we are paying homage to all things eighties today. We just can’t get enough, as the song said!”

But fans were more impressed with their appearance switch-up, as one X user gushed: “Love Josie’s blouse. Can you find out where it is from please? Do any viewers know?” Another echoed: “Josie is f***ing fit!”

“Nice moves Josie and Craig lol!” as another echoed: “Craig and Josie are the dream team.” A fifth social media user penned: “Love Josie and Craig keep them on more!” Someone else begged her: “Pull the shoulder of your top up!”
