This Morning comes off air after 'inappropriate behaviour'

ok.co.uk:

This Morning temporarily came off air today after being plagued with technical problems. Viewers tuning to see hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley on Tuesday's live show were met with a sign saying simply: "We're sorry for the disruption." Fans posted "Now ITV has been disrupted." and "ITV is off air" after the difficulties.

However, the programme, which is broadcast live from Television Centre in West London, returned to screens in short order after the apology.The disruption came after what some viewers complained was "inappropriate behaviour" from some of today's presenters following their Christmas party in London last night.

Ben, 49, brought out a swimming costume with his face on it - a gift given to Cat by their co-star Josie Gibson at the show's Christmas party, which was held at James Blunt's pub the Fox and Pheasant in Chelsea.

He told her: "I retrieved it for you." Cat laughed: "I was leaving that behind on purpose" but said she would "pop it on later".True to her word, after the break she appeared wearing the costume over her clothing and jiggled about while the Barry White track I'm Gonna Love You Just A Little Bit More Baby played.
