They asked Mr Sunak how businesses will be impacted by the lifting of lockdown restrictions on July 19 - dubbed 'Freedom Day'.
He also discussed the link between rising coronavirus cases and hospitalisations and deaths.
But the attention of those watching the ITV breakfast show at home was diverted to what was going on behind him.
The bare-bellied chap stole the spotlight as he rubbed and scratched his stomach next to his amused colleague.
It appeared he was fully aware his actions were being televised after his pal pushed him away smiling.
And it didn't go unnoticed by viewers, who got a good laugh from the funny moment.
