This Morning could be off air for a second day while ITV bosses scramble to fix a studio 'power cut'
Lorraine Kelly, 66, who had been looking forward to interviewing Sharleen Spiteri about Texas's new single and 30th anniversary tour before Wednesday's disruption.
The Covent Garden studio power outage could be "harder to fix than first thought," putting This Morning at risk of going dark for a second consecutive day. There is reportedly panic it won't be resolved in time, with the outage affecting a wider area, not just the studio itself.
Lorraine, This Morning and Loose Women were all axed on Wednesday, with Good Morning Britain extended to fill the gap.
Backstage, Cat Deeley's hairdresser poured a 5-gallon water bottle over her head to rinse hair dye in the dark; she joked 'I've just been waterboarded.'
Viewers demanded to know why a major broadcaster had no backup power, with one asking: 'Surely contingency plans should be standard practice?'
