Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes 'return' to This Morning in throwback clip
A throwback video from over a decade ago made waves on Friday's This Morning, showing Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes from the days when they presented the show.
On August 30, the programme hosted by Sian Welby and Craig Doyle featured Sharnie Christie revisiting her extraordinary fear of fancy dress, an issue first tackled on air in 2011. TV therapists Nik and Eva Speakman also appeared in the nostalgic clip, with Ruth assuring Sharnie: "We're going to hopefully sort this today, ok, so let's pull back the curtain."
To her dread, as the golden curtain slid away, it revealed a snowman and donkey outfit, causing Sharnie to burst into tears, visibly overwhelmed by her phobia.
Eamonn, sensing the intensity of Sharnie's terror, instructed the producers to close the curtain. The original video capturing Sharnie's struggle catapulted to viral fame and, on her recent appearance 13 years later, showcased a vastly transformed woman.

She continued: "So it took everything in me because you're on high alert. You can never really relax so it took a lot of my energy."
Thankfully, Sharnie expressed gratitude to the Speakmans and This Morning, emphasising their transformative impact on her life, allowing her to finally conquer her fear of fancy dress costumes.

Viewers of the incredible transformation were quick to take to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their reactions with one person gushing: "The Speakmans need knighthoods. They are such selfless people who do so much good in the world. Amazing, healing people. Almost Jesus-like."
The praise continued to pour in with another user enthusing: "The Speakmans are b****y miracle workers."
A third viewer simply added: "She looks like a completely different person."
This Morning airs weekdays from 10am on ITV1.
