The Loose Women were left in the dark this afternoon when their show was plunged into absolute darkness.
Ayda Field, Kate Garraway, Stacey Solomon and Jane Moore were chatting to former Emmerdale star Lorraine Chase when they were left in the dark.
Lorraine had been gushing over Ayda's husband Robbie Williams after she'd bumped into him backstage.
She was busy telling Ayda how lucky she was when the lights suddenly went off.
The five ladies became silhouettes as the Loose Women sign behind them remained lit.

They didn't know what was going on, and were left in the dark for a few seconds while technicians behind the scenes tried to turn the lights back on.
They joked that perhaps Robbie was cheekily flicking the lightswitches backstage or that they were about to take part in a shadow puppet segment.
The women also laughed while they asked someone to put another pound coin in the meter.
