Holly Willoughby transforms into Wednesday Addams for This Morning

Holly Willoughby channels Wednesday Addams with Alison Hammond as Morticia and an unrecognisable Josie Gibson as Lurch – but viewers are left cringing rather than shrieking at their ‘unbearable’ acting

She is known for putting her all into her extravagant Halloween costumes. 

And Holly Willoughby was certainly dressed to impress for This Morning’s as she transformed into Wednesday Addams for the show’s spooky special on Monday.

The 41-year-old presenter looked incredible as she transformed into the Addams Family legend alongside Phillip Schofield who had dressed up as Uncle Fester.

The pair were not the only members of the spookiest household around who crept on to the This Morning set, with Alison Hammond as Morticia Addams and an unrecognisable Josie Gibson as Lurch, while the Speakmans, Steve Wilson, Gok Wan also donned their best costumes for the show.

However, Carol Vorderman failed to get the memo when she dressed up as a sexy Lord Voldemort for Halloween, despite the theme being The Addams Family.

However, the TV personality, 61, looked nothing short of sensational as she showed off her youthful figure in a bodycon long sleeved mini dress which she teamed with thigh high boots.

She donned a spooky palette of makeup contouring her nose the same as the Harry Potter character and rocked black lipstick and smoky red eye shadow.

Phillip quickly pointed out that ‘the theme today is The Addams Family’ not Harry Potter as the cast transformed into the spooky family.

Carol added: ‘Oh um I’m off to Loose Woman then’ as Holly Willoughby shouted after her: ‘You look like a very sexy Voldemort though’. 

Despite going all out with their outfits, viewers were less than impressed with the group’s performance, slamming the ‘cringe’ acting skills and saying they’d been forced to switch channels.

Disgruntled viewers penned: ‘infantile and not funny in the slightest. Turned off’; ‘Two and a half hours of this is going to be unbearable, and for that reason, I’m out…’; ‘accidentally clicked on to this, have never seen such immature pathetic television. It really is focused to the lowest denominator.’

‘If your acting career is that bad that you need to do this, stop #ThisMorning’; ‘I’m not being a miserable b***h I love having fun and being silly, but honestly Adults acting like idiots for Halloween. Halloween is for children and not adults to behave like kids’;  

‘Who do they think watches this show- 12 year old Americans?’; ‘This is a total cringefest… stop’; ‘#thismorning what on earth is going . . . . this is a painful watch . . . maybe that’s the point?’; ‘This is too scripted.. Even Ghostwatch was more believable than that’; ‘#ThisMorning is frankly embarrassing, even the bored housewife would struggle to watch this.’ 

This isn’t the first time that Holly has taken inspiration from the Addams Family for her Halloween costume.  

Fun and frolics: Holly and Phil were replaced by Uncle Fester and Morticia for the morning show

For Celebrity Juice’s Halloween special she transformed herself into a very sultry version of Morticia Addams in a form-fitting PVC gown.

Holly lightened her face and chest with white paint and oozed sex appeal as she vamped up her fancy dress with dramatic eye make-up and a venomous scarlet red lip. 

The mother-of-three has always been a fan of the spooky season and recently shared an array of her favourite Halloween fancy dress outfits from over the years, including when she dressed up as Harley Quinn back in 2016.

Not impressed: Despite going all out with their outfits, viewers were less than impressed with the group’s performance, slamming the ‘cringe’ acting skills and saying they’d been forced to switch channels

Charmed: Not all viewers were upset with the show, with many in awe at the costumes 

The presenter took to the Instagram page of her lifestyle brand Wylde Moon to take a look back at some of her iconic spooky costumes from over the years.

In one snap, Holly was seen giving a fierce glare as she held a baseball bat up and wore a ripped T-shirt reading ‘Daddy’s Lil Monster’ as she embodied DC’s Harley Quinn.

She styled her blonde locks in Harley’s recognisable bunches with pink and blue dip-dyed ends and she opted for smudged make-up to complete the look.

Spooktacular: Holly shared a video of herself walking through the ITV studios in her spooky ensemble 

She captioned the spooky video: ‘Hello Monday… it’s Wednesday’

In another picture from when she appeared on Celebrity Juice in 2017, Holly dressed up in a Wonder Woman outfit complete with black and white skull-style make-up.

She flaunted her incredible figure in the racy red and blue dress, which she paired with red knee-high boots and silver gloves.

Holly fixed a lasso on her waist and sported a black wig, while she opted for a spooky palette of make-up as she added a Halloween spin to the look.

She also shared a snap from when she dressed up as Beetlejuice character Lydia Deetz to appear on This Morning – alongside her co-host Phillip Schofield who was Beetlejuice.

The TV star cut an edgy figure in a ruffled red gown with matching gloves as she embodied the recognisable character from the 1988 film.

She sported a brunette mullet wig and opted for a washed out white make-up palette complete with heavy red eyeshadow.
