GOOD Morning Britain viewers couldn't help but laugh as Adil Ray opened today's show with an unfortunate slip of the tongue.
Returning to the programme after stand-in host Rob Rinder bowed out yesterday, Adil accidentally swore live on air while sitting beside Kate Garraway.
He got a little tongue-tied announcing a segment on fish and chips potentially being removed from menus because of rising fish prices.
He said: "Could fish and chips soon be off the menu? As environmentalists call for sustainable seafood, we're asking whether it's time to ditch the b*tch... b*tch... [laughs] the British seaside staple. Let us know what you think."
Viewers immediately picked up on the hilarious gaffe.
One tweeted: "Hahahaha little chuckle at @adiilray saying 'ditch the b*tch' this morning."

Another laughed: "Ditch the b*tch [laughing emoji]."
Yesterday GMB fans heaped praise on Rob Rinder.
Viewers begged for the TV host to be kept on as a permanent part of the panel after his emotional interview with Ashley Cain.

Ashley's baby daughter Azaylia tragically died from leukaemia last year aged just eight months - with Ashley and Azaylia's mum Safiyya Vorajee setting up a charity in her name.
He was prompted to reveal the reason behind his long facial hair by Rob and co-host Kate Garraway.
Ashley explained that his daughter used to "grab hold of his beard", which has prompted him to keep it after her tragic death.
Rob was then seen with tears in his eyes as the camera panned round to him - and viewers were impressed by his show of emotions.
