Laura Hamilton is nearly knocked over by a wave before her microphone cuts out in chaotic This Morning segment

Laura Hamilton was almost knocked over by a wave as she presented This Morning’s latest competition from Tenerife on Wednesday. 

During the chaotic live segment the host, 41, strolled along the sand as she spoke with hosts Rochelle Humes and Craig Doyle back in the studio.

As she explained what was up for grabs a rogue wave came hurtling towards her and she struggled to keep her balance.

Ever the professional Laura continued speaking to the camera, hoping the awkward incident had been missed.

However Craig quipped: ‘We saw you get hit by a wave then, don’t try and play it cook’

Laura replied: ‘It nearly’ before her microphone suddenly cut out and she continued to chat away without anyone hearing what she had to say. 

Back in London Rochelle and Craig were forced to apologise for the awkward blunder before cutting the segment short. 

On Tuesday the show’s sound man was forced to rescue Laura when she was swept down a river live on air.

Hosting from a water park in Tenerife, Laura plunged into the water on a rubber ring and swiftly got carried away. 

Back in the studio host Craig Doyle: ‘The sound guy is just watching that very expensive mic go down that river.’

Cutting back to Laura she could be heard shouting ‘I’m stuck’ while as the sound man used the long mic handle to fish her out of the water.

Rochelle Humes, giggled: ‘OMG he’s actually gone to rescue the mic, I knew it’

‘He’s using the long microphone stick to drag her back in,’ Craig exclaimed.

Elsewhere, during the programme This Morning fans threatened to ‘switch off’ during a screaming segment which saw Dave Fishwick shout in a field. 

Viewers branded the scenes ‘unhinged’ and claimed the exercise which was meant to help people ‘destress’ was ‘anxiety inducing’ as they hit the mute button. 

Joining hosts Rochelle and Craig live from the Lake District, the Bank Of Dave founder, tried out ‘scream therapy.’ 

Dave was encouraged to scream into the beautiful surroundings with a group of others to release frustrations and suppressed emotions.

However, fans at home were not impressed as they shared their thoughts about the segment on X. 

One person wrote: ‘I’ve genuinely just muted this. Who thought this was a good segment for 10:44am?’

‘Sorry what was that? My anxiety levels have SPIKED thanks to Dave,’ another added. 

Someone else posted: ’40 minutes and I’m already done.’

‘This unhinged shouty nutter is enough to give anyone nightmares,’ one viewer wrote.
