Fern Britton was back on This Morning this week and afterwards, she had a few words to say about new hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard. Celebrity Big Brother finalist Fern fronted the show from 1999 - 2009 along with Phillip Schofield.
During her appearance on the ITV programme this week, she opened up about her time in the Big Brother house, but also couldn't help but give a comment on Cat and Ben, who took over earlier this month, following Phillip and Holly Willoughby's exits last year.
Fern told them: "15 years since I was last on [this] programme. And, well done you two."
Cat and Ben appeared happy with what the veteran presenter said, and Fern even gave them a kiss on the cheek and asked them to come stay at her Cornwall home, as writes the Mirror.
Fern also recalled the moment she bumped her head on a sofa on Celebrity Big Brother as she said: "The medic came out and said 'it's blunt force trauma so you will feel a bit funny'..." but then, noticing a look on Ben's face, she went on: "You look like you're wrapping up so I will just tell you very quickly..." This prompted Ben to say "you know those eyes" to which Fern replied: "I do".

And who came in with me? David! He sat on the sofa while I was having a shower and was going, 'you alright Ferny? ' He is the most adorable man."
The star also said she's not planning to watch her own episodes from the Big Brother house, following claims she had a "feud" with
