THIS Morning brought in the sofa from Friends for a special themed edition of the show – but the hosts couldn’t sit on it.

However, because the US comedy was filmed well before the coronavirus outbreak it was entirely unsuitable for social distancing.
Phillip and Holly have always strived to stay two metres from one another at all times while hosting This Morning.
But they had to take it in turns to sit on the famous orange sofa, with Holly, 40, having to stand in the wings while Phillip, 59, tried it out.
The closest they could get was with each of them perched on an arm on the settee as they spoke about the show.
Tonight sees the Friends cast reunite for a special show hosted by James Corden which aired in the US last night.
