ITV Loose Women viewers left baffled over bizarre segment: 'Nobody wants to see this!'

The unplanned segment saw the four presenters lying on the studio floor with their legs elevated, giggling as they demonstrated moves typically reserved for yoga studios rather than live television broadcasts.

Ms Moore and Ms Bridge initially struggled to contain their laughter as they observed their colleagues, Ms Sawalha and Ms Love, already positioned on the ground beneath them.

The unusual scene began when Ms Moore questioned what her co-hosts were doing, having noticed them sprawled out during the commercial break.

Ms Love explained that they were recreating activities from their youth, describing how children would lie in such positions while casually making plans with friends.

"Do you not remember you'd just do this. You'd go 'Do you want to go down the park later?' They'd go 'Yeah'," Ms Love recalled.

Ms Sawalha added her own perspective, characterising the behaviour as "boredom before mobile phones" and describing it as "lovely".

Ms Moore admitted she had engaged in similar behaviour during her childhood, revealing she would adopt the position whilst watching television at home.

The nostalgic discussion prompted reflections on how children entertained themselves before the era of constant digital stimulation.

Ms Moore then provided context for the position, explaining it was known as the "legs up the wall" pose in yoga terminology.

The move, formally called Viparita Karani, offers numerous health advantages according to Ms Moore's explanation during the broadcast.

"It calms the nervous system, it reduces stress and anxiety, improves circulation, relieves tired and swollen legs, relieves back pain, it aids digestion," she told viewers.

Having outlined the therapeutic properties of the pose, Ms Moore turned to Ms Bridge and invited her to participate in the demonstration.

The pair promptly rose from their seats and descended to the studio floor to join Ms Sawalha and Ms Love in their horizontal positions.

What had started as nostalgic reminiscence quickly evolved into a full group exercise session broadcast live to the nation.

Once all four panellists were positioned on the floor, the demonstration took on increasingly adventurous forms.

Ms Love extended one leg dramatically skyward while Ms Bridge and Ms Sawalha pressed their feet together to perform a cycling motion.

The absurdity of the situation was not lost on the participants, with Ms Sawalha acknowledging the peculiar direction events had taken.

"This has actually taken a strange turn. We are actually on telly..." she confessed while attempting to suppress her laughter.

The moment prompted Ms Moore to observe that modern children no longer experience genuine boredom in the way previous generations did.

Ms Love elaborated on this point, noting that youngsters today face constant stimulation and rarely claim to be bored.

"That is where creativity comes from, in that moment of boredom, because you have to push yourself to think to do something!" she declared.

The segment provoked a range of responses from those watching at home, with many expressing their bewilderment on social media.

Viewers took to X to share their reactions to the unexpected television moment.

"What the f*** was that? #LooseWomen," penned one perplexed viewer.

Another was equally unimpressed, posting: "Nobody wants to see this. #LooseWomen."

A third commenter suggested the bizarre broadcast would leave a lasting impression, writing: "This is one of those TV moments that will get burned into your memory."
