ITV sparked a new presenter shake-up as a popular star swapped from This Morning to the Good Morning Britain hot-seat.<\/p>\n
Show anchor Ben Shephard, 48, was forced to set his alarm a few hours earlier as he arrived for his regular Thursday presenting role alongside Susanna Reid, 52.<\/p>\n

The Tipping Point favourite is a regular Good Morning Britain frontman every Thursday and Friday.<\/p>\n
Yet his schedule changed this week after he was seen alongside Holly Willoughby, 42, hosting This Morning, leaving him to joke on today's GMB how he had been was "moonlighting."<\/p>\n
And his dual role triggered a warning from co-host Susanna who issued a 'hands off' warning to This Morning over Ben.<\/p>\n
After the pair welcomed viewers, Susanna told Ben: "You are on the wrong show!"<\/p>\n
He replied: "I have been moonlighting next door," to which Susanna quipped: "I feel like you've been cheating!"<\/p>\n Ben burst into giggles as she added: "I saw you with another woman!"<\/p>\n Susanna added as a clip of Ben and Holly played out: "Ohh you're like 'oh Holly, oh Holly!'<\/p>\n "You know he was texting me saying 'they give you cheesecake on this show!' – in the green room, can we get cheesecake with strawberries on the top to keep him?"<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Ben then added: "There are many good things about the show next door," before he said: "I am thrilled to be here."<\/p>\n Susanna then said: "Stay here, we want you here. Hands off!"<\/p>\n Ben then surmised: "I am happy to be here."<\/p>\n Ben's hosting gig followed the turmoil that engulfed\u00a0This Morning\u00a0in the\u00a0spring.<\/p>\n Phillip Schofield, Holly's longtime best pal and co-star, was\u00a0axed from the show\u00a0and\u00a0ITV\u00a0more widely after\u00a0admitting to an\u00a0affair with a much younger male colleague.<\/p>\n Since then, Holly has hosted the daytime TV show alongside a rotating roster of\u00a0ITV\u00a0stars including\u00a0Josie Gibson,\u00a0Alison Hammond,\u00a0Dermot O'Leary\u00a0and\u00a0Craig Doyle.<\/p>\n Yet while Good Morning Britain fans are no doubt delighted to have Ben back today – This Morning viewers are also attempting to claim him for the later show.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n After his presenting stint this week, they have demanded he is given a permanent presenting spot alongside Holly.<\/p>\n Many called for him to get the full-time job – saying Ben and Holly make the "perfect match".<\/p>\n One fan wrote: "Ben's a natural for this show – class act. They should ditch Holly and permanently pair him up with someone else<\/p>\n Another posted: "Ben should be permanent with Holly. They've worked together loads. He can laugh at the right moment."<\/p>\n It comes after Holly told The Sun at the NTAs that she is\u00a0keen to have a permanent co-host\u00a0but said it's up to fans who she gets.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, a new This Morning trailer that aired earlier this month\u00a0placed Holly centre stage, showing the channel still has faith in her.<\/p>\n A source told The Mail on Sunday: "Holly is the\u00a0future\u00a0and ITV wanted to make that clear. It's a sure sign that she is at the helm and the other presenters will join her.<\/p>\n "It's a brand new start for This Morning, the scandal could have destroyed it but it has managed to keep going. There is a lot of excitement."<\/p>\n<\/picture>PERFECT MATCH <\/span><\/p>\n
