This Morning’s Dermot O’Leary looks unimpressed as Alison Hammond jokes that he was ‘touching himself’
THIS Morning host Dermot O'Leary has been left looking unimpressed after Alison Hammond made a cheeky jibe about him.
The Irish broadcaster snapped that his co-host had gone "too far" after she made a joke about him "touching himself".
Dermot, 48, and Alison, 47, were at the helm of the much-loved ITV show as part of their usual Friday morning spot.
The pair - who are often seen making jibes at one another, sat down with coupon queen Holly Smith to get the latest deals.
However, Alison was left distracted as Dermot wiggled around in his seat next to her - giving her a chance to crack a joke.
"What's the matter, Derms?" the mother-of-one asked, to which he replied, looking embarrassed: "I'm just adjusting my trousers.

"Look at you pouncing on me there! [Thinking] 'What's he up to?'"
Alison replied, poking fun at her co-host: "Well you started touching yourself, I was like, 'What's going on here?'"
But Dermot was not amused, and hit back: "Well, that's a bit too far, I was literally adjusting a trouser. I wouldn't call that 'touching myself'."
Fans at home were left shocked at the exchange, and took to Twitter to react - saying Dermot "couldn't take a joke".
