This Morning viewers are left in stitches over ‘chaotic’ Rustie Lee as she messes up
Rustie Lee left This Morning viewers in stitches on Friday’s episode of This Morning as she suffered a mishap during the cooking segment.
The TV chef, 74, joined hosts Rochelle Humes and Andi Peters to whip up some spam pancakes but things didn’t go to plan.
Rustie appeared to get distracted as she was chatting to Rochelle and Andi and accidentally burned the pancakes she had in the frying pan.
She then went back to trying to whip up another batch but realised she was doing it wrong as she was giving viewers instructions.
The comedian said: ‘You make it like a parcel, very good. Then you egg wash them.

‘This is how it used to be. Then you flour them like that. Have I done this right? No, I’ve done it wrong!’
While the cooking segment went wrong, viewers found the mishap hilarious.
One took to X/Twitter and wrote: ‘I’m obsessed with Rustie, she makes me howl,’ while another said: ‘Rusty is mad’.
A third viewer penned: ‘Don’t give yourself a heart attack Rustie,’ while a fourth wrote: ‘Rustie is SO over the top’.
A fifth wrote: ‘If I behaved like this at work I’d be in trouble!’ while another said: ‘That looks like something a dog left in a park.’
Earlier this year, Rustie was declared bankrupt after lawyers spent nearly a ten years chasing her over £75,000 in debt.
The TV-am star withdrew money from a company she ran with her husband shortly before it went bust in 2013.
A statutory demand for £75,750 was made to Lee and proceedings brought against her, according to The Sun.

They concluded last month at Brighton Crown court and the Birmingham-raised chef was made bankrupt.
Her husband Andreas Hohmann reportedly faces proceedings for a similar amount.
A source said told The Sun: ‘Her assets can be sold to raise the money, but we are led to believe she doesn’t have any.’
A regular guest on daytime TV shows like ITV’s This Morning and Loose Women, Rustie first became a household name in the 1980s.
As a young girl, she came from Jamaica to live with her parents in Birmingham, and worked at her family’s Caribbean bakery growing up.
She went on to hone her craft at a culinary college before setting up her restaurant, Rustie’s, in Handworth.

The silver service Caribbean restaurant, which hosted the likes of Muhammed Ali, helped the chef to catch the attention of BBC producers.
She first hit British screens on Pebble Mill at One before moving to TV-am, where she made her name on cookery.
Her infectious laugh also helped her get booked onto hosting primetime Saturday night show Game for a Laugh.
She has since taken part in a number of celeb reality shows, including the popular fly-on-the wall documentary the Real Marigold Hotel with seven other celebs in 2017.
She has also made multiple appearances on our screens gracing shows like Good Morning Britain and Loose Women, but her money woes have not been revealed until now.
