However not everything went to plan during a segment with two lambs ahead of the Easter weekend.

Squealing, Emily told John: "I've always wanted to pick up a lamb!"

But within seconds of John handing it to her, the lamb wiggled so much Emily accidentally dropped it.

She cried: "Oh my God! I'm so sorry! I just dropped a lamb on television!"

Emily Atack admits she is nervous as she hosts This Morning for the first time alongside John Barrowman

While the lamb was fine, and enjoyed some milk from a bottle given by John and its handler, it left its mark on Emily.

A few minutes later, John was seen grabbing a wet wipe and rubbing the hem of Emily's pretty bright pink and red patterned dress as they giggled.

She admitted to viewers after a household cleaning VT: "Have you got any tips on how to get lamb poo out of a dress?"

John hadn't escaped unscathed either, pointing to his trousers with a laugh and saying: "She's got lamb poo on her dress and I've got lamb wee on my leg."

Emily then sniffed her hands before shoving them under John's nose and saying: "It stinks!"

The pair had a right laugh and just like the hosts they were standing in for - struggled to contain their giggles during the lambing segment and subsequent poo chat.

Viewers were loving their partnership and Emily's "natural" presenting style was praised on social media.
