Holly Willoughby will be back on This Morning early to promote her forthcoming appearance on Midsomer Murders.
In recent months, the ITV star, 42, has been spending her summer vacations with husband Daniel Baldwin and their three children, including a trip to Portugal where they soaked in the sun.
However, as the holidays draw to an end, Holly is preparing to return to her position on the couch on September 4.
However, she has stunned fans by saying that she would be returning to the studio early for a guest appearance on her own show.
She’ll be doing so to promote her impending role on the mystery series, with the episode in which she appears premiering this Sunday.
Holly shared a sneak peek of some behind-the-scenes video that will run on This Morning tomorrow, writing that being on the show was a “dream come true.”
‘Thank you to the whole team at Midsomer Murders for making me so welcome and really looking after me… I loved every second,’ she wrote on Instagram.
‘Tomorrow there is a behind the scenes look at what we got up to on This Morning and then Sunday 8pm the episode, The Witches of Angels Rise broadcasts on ITV.’
She went on to describe what will happen in the episode, which also starred Neil Dudgeon, Tracy-Ann Oberman, and Colin Salmon.
‘Each year, the Midsomer village of Angel’s Rise hosts an annual Psychic Fayre in the vast and gothic Eddon Hall. Founded by the Saint-Stephens family in memory of their late daughter, the event attracts all manner of mediums, psychics and followers of the occult,’ she teased.
‘When a body is found surrounded by ritual symbols on the eve of the gathering, Barnaby must step into a world of self-proclaimed witches to find the killer.’
The host, who has been a superfan for years, was revealed to make a special appearance on the show in 2021.
Holly exclaimed ‘yes’ and teared up in astonishment when she found out she had landed a job on her beloved show.
‘I’ve seen every episode since it started way back when. Are you serious?’ she asked.
‘I mean, you’re going to have to kill me off really quickly as I’m terrible at acting.’
While the episode was shot two years ago, it will finally be released this weekend.
Neil described Holly as ‘wonderful’ and ‘thoroughly professional’ during an appearance on Good Morning Britain this week.
‘I think she was a bit nervous when she first arrived.
‘She’s playing a character called Holly Willoughby, I wouldn’t like to say that it’s herself.’
