This Morning has another bumper show ready for fans today – but who are the guests on Friday’s sofa?

The ITV daytime favourite is back on screens from 10am and there is a good line-up waiting to brighten up your day.

As it is Friday, regular This Morning presenters Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard won’t be at the helm.

Instead, Dermot O’Leary and Alison Hammond will once again be filling their shoes in the This Morning studio.

And something smells a bit fishy… Here’s what to expect!

Who are the guests on This Morning today?

This Morning fans will today be treated to an appearance from the stars of Two Weeks in August. The cast of the BBC drama will be in the studio to spill all the details on the series.

Viewers of Two Weeks in August are transported to Greece as six university friends and their partners head off there for a joint holiday. But their plan to relax and soak up the sun immediately hits the skids.

The stars of the show will be telling Dermot and Alison how their characters actually end up smooching each other’s partners, delivering some long-buried home truths and having explosive rows!

Meanwhile, This Morning regular Steve Wilson will be in the studio with his latest list of top collectable toys. These retro toys aren’t just for kids, though.

The toys Steve will be talking about could actually hold a small fortune for anyone lucky enough to still have them buried away somewhere in a cupboard.

Pet lovers will be glad to welcome Dr Scott Miller into their living rooms too. This Morning’s resident vet will be on hand to answer viewers’ animal-related questions and concerns.

Finally, Alison and Dermot have picked a great day to be hosting the show.

To celebrate National Fish and Chip Day, the lucky pair will be behind the counter in This Morning’s local chippy. Yummy!

Why is Loose Women not on today?

This Morning is in its usual slot on ITV1 today. The show will begin at 10am and it will run for two and a half hours, with an end time of 12.30pm.

But don’t expect Alison and Dermot to hand over to the Loose Women. Today’s episode of the lunchtime panel show has been pulled from the schedule to make way for ITV Racing Live.

Francesca Cumani and Ed Chamberlin will instead be presenting live coverage from The Oaks in Epsom.

Loose Women will return on Monday June 8, 2026.
