Someone else said: "Poor old Kaye, get the woman a strepsil!"

A fourth joked: "Bloody hell it goes to s**t when Kaye's not there! None of them can read."

Upon her return, Kaye said: "Sorry to just pop into this conversation again, I'm really sorry about that."

It's not the first health scare Kaye's suffered this year.

Back in January, she was after losing her hearing minutes before the  show went live.

Telly fave Kaye said: "I was absolutely terrified, I thought, 'Oh my god, what has gone wrong?'"

However the Scots presenter was left red-faced after discovering a large piece of ear wax was causing the problem.

As she returned to her BBC Scotland radio show, the blonde host sounded chirpy.

Kaye commented on the incident: "On Friday when I was doing Loose Women, minutes before we went in air, my right ear just went dead.

"I put my earpiece in, there was no sound I couldn't hear a thing."

Kaye added that she managed to get through the show, but when she got home to Glasgow, she still couldn't hear anything.

Panicking, she researched online and read that she should go to A&E, where she went the following morning.

After praising the nurses, Kaye revealed she was sent for an audiogram at a nearby Boots hearing centre
