HOLLY Willoughby screeched with joy after she was offered a role in Midsomer Murders today.
Holly, 40, was thrilled when she interviewed Midsomer Murders stars Neil Dudgeon and Nick Hendrix on This Morning and they poached her for a job.
The TV star screamed “are you serious?” as Neil and Nick begged her to say yes.
Even her This Morning co-host Phillip Schofield was in on the secret, and said: “I’ve been waiting all morning for this to happen!”
Phil, 58, teased they had a surprise coming up, but Neil – who plays DCI John Barnaby – stepped in and said: “We’ve all had a big talk about who we want to appear on Midsomer, and we decided we want Holly Willoughby to appear in an episode of Midsomer Murders very soon.
“I’ve been speaking to people upstairs and they’ve been speaking to your people.
“Holly please, I am emboldened here to offer you a role in Midsomer Murders.”
The TV presenter was offered a role in the popular detective drama after she revealed Midsomer Murders was her favourite show and she loved watching it on Sunday nights.
And she quickly begged to be killed off by eating poisoned chocolate.
She said: “I’ve seen every episode since it started way back when.
“I mean, you’re going to have to kill me off really quickly as I’m terrible at acting … can I die by eating chocolate?
“Because I saw an episode where somebody died by eating chocolate and I was like, ‘that’s the way to go.'”
She added: “That is so exciting. I want to come up there now, this afternoon!”
And Neil replied: “Well please say yes Holly. Please come, I don’t know when this will be but it will be soon.”
Midsomer Murders fans may remember when Martine McCutcheon was murdered with a giant cheese wheel.
The actress played a village vixen who knew too much and ended up being murdered for her troubles.
Following her bit part in Midsomer Murders, Martine enjoyed a career revival with a regular slot on Loose Women and a new record deal.
