Good Morning Britain’s Charlotte Hawkins took a friendly swipe at weather presenter Laura Tobin’s fashion choices live on the show on Tuesday.

As Laura appeared on screen from Hastings Piers, Charlotte took her chance to rib her about her Cath Kidston cream, red, purple and green-striped dress.

Prompting fits of laughter in the studio, she told Laura: “You look like a resplendent deckchair.”

Laura took the cheeky jab in good humour, replying: “I was just thinking that.”

She even posted a picture later on Twitter, comparing herself to the seat and saying she was going for “seaside chic”, proving there were no bad feelings.

Laura seemed to enjoy her day at the pier, which reopened in April following a nearly £15 million redevelopment after it was gutted by fire.

She shared plenty of titbits about the rebuild, including that it was lined with decking from the previous pier.
