TV presenter fronts show from his London home
PIERS Morgan presented his TalkTV show from home last night - after Covid left him feeling "rough as a badger's a**e".
He began tonight's show by explaining that he was at home and not in the studio because he had fallen ill.

Piers said he was not certain what the rules were but thought it better to stay at home rather than risk infecting colleagues at work.
He added that the two man film crew at his London home had both been infected with Covid before.
Mr Morgan posted his positive Covid result on X earlier on.
The message read read: "UPDATE: I’ve tested positive for Covid, and feel as rough as a badger’s a*se, but in the spirit of 'The Show Must Go On', I’m going to have a go at anchoring tonight’s Uncensored live from my home. Tune in at 8pm, because anything could happen."

Last month the host managed to present a show despite being unwell.
The life long Arsenal fan posted a message which read: "To all concerned viewers (including my mother & sister!) who think I’ve looked less than [100], I’ve been diagnosed with bronchitis, sinusitis & conjunctivitis – a gloriously vile trifecta of wheezing, sneezing, pink-eyed hell.
"Apologies if my head caused more offence than usual."
The host routinely interviews some the biggest names in show business and tackles current issues such as the controversy around Omid Scobie's book Endgame.
