This Morning viewers all said the same thing as Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley took the helm of the latest episode of the ITV daytime programme.

The dynamic pair were back on the iconic blue sofa on Thursday (September 19) morning, and before they unveiled the day's line-up, they chatted with Juliet Sear about the proper way to slice a cake.

After declaring that September is the peak month for birthdays, Ben was spotted enjoying a cake and meticulously cutting a piece, but baking guru Juliet pointed out that he hadn't done it correctly.

One viewer took to X, previously known as Twitter, to write: "How to cut a cake, how to put stuff away. Now sure how we'd cope without these invaluable life hacks on #ThisMorning."

Another chimed in: 'How to cut a cake this show has got so much worse #ThisMorning. "A third individual commented: "So now we have people telling us how to cut cake properly", reports the Mirror.

A fourth social media user remarked: "Those are some stingy cake portions. #ThisMorning." This follows recent criticism from fans who accused This Morning producers of "trying to make them despise the show even more" after inviting a woman who celebrates Christmas every day onto the programme.

During the show's festive segment, a woman surrounded by holiday decorations disclosed that she commemorates the season all year round because she never knows when her children, who work away, will visit.

She confessed to keeping the stockings perpetually filled and wouldn't mind having a Christmas roast dinner any day of the year. Following the live interview, presenters Ben and Cat revealed that it was 100 days until Christmas.

However, the early onset of festive celebrations didn't sit well with some viewers who took to social media to voice their displeasure. One disgruntled viewer wrote: "Oh grow up, stupid woman! Where did this ridiculous obsession with bringing Christmas earlier every year come from?"

Another chimed in: "Well done producers, you have made the viewers hate the show even more. F****n Christmas segments in September."

A third person added: "I love Christmas because it's not everyday of the year, it's a special time of year which I love decorating the house for but I couldn't do that everyday of the year."
