Phillip Schofield was left terrified after Rylan Clark-Neal called for Kim Woodburn to join This Morning as a permanent member of the team.

Schofield said he had “had enough” of the TV cleaner after the pair had a heated exchange on the ITV show earlier this week.

Woodburn, 74, called Schofield a “big phoney” and accused him of being biased as he questioned her on her time in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

Recalling the interview, Schofield said: “She nearly killed me. If she could have got past Holly she would have done.”

Clearly a fan of Woodburn Clark-Neal said: “Get her on here. I’m going to start a campaign.

“I would like to get a chair and have it just next to the couch and when you are doing your interviews she can sit there and go ‘don’t be stupid lovey’.

“I want them to pay her a lot of money just to pipe up.”

A horrified Schofield replied: “Can we do that in a few weeks I’ve had enough?”

Channel 5

Schofield grilled Woodburn on her behaviour on the Channel 5 show which saw her removed by security guards on one occasion after branding her housemates “chicken livered s****” and accusing Jamie O’Hara of being an “adulterer”.

Schofield suggested that Woodburn ‘exaggerated’ her arguments before asking if she feels she would have got on much better if she had been a “nice person”.

Infuriated by his comment, she replied: “No! You weren’t there Phil, were you? Excuse me, you watched 45 minutes a night. We film 24 hours. Try the rest!

"I’m 74 years old. You have a long time left to work on TV, if I never got another TV show I couldn’t give a toss. I’m not a diplomat like you. I don’t have a second of my life for bull, I’m telling you the truth about what these people are like.”

She continued: “Don’t think you are going to bully me, I have been around too long.

“You are giving me the impression from the time I came on here that you don’t know what you’re talking about Phil.

“I don’t like the attitude I’m to blame when you know damn all about it! You should have had me on here and remained neutral. You big phoney.”
