This Morning has been the scene of much drama of late. But today's (Friday) programme showed that there is still plenty of fun and goodwill behind the the scenes whenever Alison Hammond is around.
The drama surrounding Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby was a world away when Alison and co-presenter Dermot O'Leary appeared on the ITV programme this morning. And it wasn't just on camera that the pair were laughing and joking.
The fun continued when they were off-camera on the ITV show too. The 48-year-old presenter reshared a clip to her Instagram stories from hairdresser Michelle Sultan's @Hairbymichellesultan account.

Captioned: "Oh just a quiet morning with @AlisonHammond55, @DermotOLeary, @ThisMorning @OuttPuffDaddys", it was filmed as the mental health exercise troupe the Outta Puff Daddys danced to Haven't You Heard by Patrice Rushen on the morning programme.
And as the action took place in the far end of the studio, Alison and Dermot were giving it some on their own temporary dancefloor. In fact, having just celebrated his own 50th a few days ago, Dermot joined Alison in showing that middle age is just as much fun as younger years.
We hope that the good vibes can continue into future episodes, because Alison and Dermot were really getting the party started.
