The music for the show began to play but instead of the title sequence being shown, viewers could see the presenters standing bemused in the studio.
Shocked by the gaffe, Holly shrieked: “Oh my god, they’re our special Christmas titles, where have they gone?”
Co-host Phillip, 55-year-old, added: “I’m not sure that has ever happened before.”
In a bid to entertain viewers, Holly offered: “This is my moment to sing.”
While Phillip wasn’t too keen on the idea, Holly continued: “I don’t think anyone needs that in their lives.”
But the blonde beauty could not keep quiet and began to hum the theme tune and sway from side-to-side.
The pair later noted that it was “such a shame” that the show had suffered the epic blunder and viewers had missed their festive titles.
But looking on the bright side, Holly sighed: “At least we had the music.”
Today’s show saw the pair debate the obese nurses row, question whether viewers would pay for their child to be potty trained and spoke to Christian Slater and Philip Glenister about their upcoming play.
This Morning airs weekdays on ITV at 10.30am.
