Lorraine Kelly loses her voice hours before she goes on air, throwing the ITV show into chaos

The poor Scottish TV presenter, 63, took to Twitter early this morning to ask her followers for help in providing their best sore throat remedies.

“HELP! I’ve lost my voice – any remedies that have worked for you (and yes – knowing some might say I can’t speak can only be a blessing)” she tweeted.

It was fair game for Good Morning Britain presenters Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway, who couldn’t resist poking fun at Kelly when it came time for their usual show delivery.

Lorraine’s resident doctor, Dr. Hilary Jones stepped in to read the autocue after Kelly was shown holding up a card that read, “I’ve lost my voice, [Dr] Hilary, can you take over?”

“Lorraine, did you yell at the Chancellor, did that happen?” Shephard joked.

“I don’t like the idea of ​​female presenters being reduced to writing things on cards,” Garraway said.

“Ben will bring this in here and we’ll be silenced, Lorraine.”

She continued, “Let’s hope Hilary does the trick and he can get your voice back enough for the show later.”

Shephard still didn’t want to let it go completely, adding, “This is going to be a thoroughly enjoyable hour with Lorraine and no voice.”

Determined not to let the situation get her down, Kelly decided to use it to her advantage and asked Dr. Hilary what he would recommend to help her throat.

“Half a pint of whiskey should be enough, well you’d forget it and have no voice at all?” he joked.
