Participants load a mechanical hand with various food substances and wind a handle until the hand eventually flips up and splatters them. Unfortunately for Miss Willoughby, she was covered with the concoction and the stains remained on her dress.
They also pictured themselves partying with fellow This Morning presenter Rylan Clark, who tweeted yesterday that he would never drink again, adding: ‘ I really shouldn’t go out drinking with Holly & Phil.’
