This Morning fans have been left utterly baffled as Alison Hammond's previously pink and vibrant suit turned dull and dark following a short segment.The ITV channel switched to a segment outside of the studio and as they brought it back to the hosts, the colour of the screen fell slightly off.Dermot O'Leary and Alison welcomed a fashion segment on the show and while they were busy looking at the clothes and sharing their admiration, fans were left baffled.Many viewers couldn't help but notice the major drop in colour after previously seeing a sunny and glowing studio - but the new look was much different.The screen appeared to have a darker filter over the lens and as the segment continued without any reference to the colour, fans immediately took to Twitter to question it.One user wrote: "Either my TV's f****d or This Morning have changed the colour of the studio."Another said: "What's going on with the colour pitch of the show today? Everyone looks dull and grey."A third wrote: "I was adjusting the colour settings on my TV when I just realised that the washed up picture was ON PURPOSE. Thanks a lot." One fan had a theory that the filter was in lieu with the Peaky Blinders segment, writing: "Don't know if they've purposely dialled the colour down for this Peaky Blinders segment but it looks sh**e." Alison's stunning pink blazer definitely caused people to question the colour, with the vibrant look taking quite a turn.

Here we go again [cry laughing emoji].”One of her other male fans added: “For those who are confused, FakeTaxi is a porno site where the guy messes up women in the back of a taxi, so this photo is insinuating that Charlotte is in the back of said taxi.”But Emily was quick to shoot down their response as she wrote back: “Don’t think anyone’s confused hun.”However, the comment that truly insulted the star was from one follower who took a savage swipe at her recent stand-up comedy tour.They penned: “I’d rather watch that than her stand up to be fair,” which she replied with: “This comment should have more likes.
