Sunday Brunch interrupted as show forced to ad break after guests' dramatic exit

Chaos erupted on Sunday Brunch as the programme was abruptly interrupted by an ad break when two guests made a hasty exit from the set.

On the episode aired today (Sunday, 6th July), Channel 4's beloved morning show saw hosts Tim Lovejoyand Simon Rimmer returning to our screens alongside several celebrity guests, including siblings Scarlette and Stuart Douglas.

As Scarlette and Stuart were being introduced by Tim, he dropped a tantalising hint, revealing: "Now interesting, you two are on the run."

Tim then spilled the beans about their secret endeavour: "The viewers won't know this because it hasn't been announced yet but you're currently on Celebrity Hunted."

Scarlette and Stuart acknowledged their participation in the chase, promptly steering the conversation towards their upcoming project Can't Sell, Must Sell, where they assist homeowners desperately trying to sell their properties, reports the Liverpool Echo.

However, the atmosphere quickly shifted as Scarlette nervously interjected: "Sorry but I am hearing helicopters. Can you hear helicopters?"

When Tim acknowledged his own rising anxiety: "I'm getting nervous for you. Do you want to go?" Stuart suggested: "I think we should leave soon."

The situation escalated rapidly as Tim declared that the hunters had arrived in studio, prompting an immediate dash from the set by Scarlette and Stuart with Tim and Simon providing a hurried escort.

Amidst the commotion, the presenters guided the pair out through a less glamorous part of the studio, where Tim quipped: "Well this is really ruining the magic of TV."

Scarlette and Stuart swiftly removed their microphones and hopped into a shadowy black motor as Tim observed: "They're actually getting nervous now."

Simon called out with encouragement: "Good luck, see you soon." Tim joked: "Should we let the hunters in now?" to which Simon firmly replied: "Lets wait till they're gone."

Their banter was met with laughter as Tim joked further: "There is a man with a big net standing there."

With all the chaos going on the presenting duo forced the show into an ad break.

Sunday Brunch airs from 10am on Channel 4 every Sunday
