Co-host Piers Morgan had read a newspaper headline which simply stated "Yes! Yes! YES!" and asked producers to play the famous clip from the hit 1989 comedy where Meg Ryan's character fakes an orgasm in a cafe.

Unwilling to wait, an overjoyed Susanna burst into a racy impression, slamming her fists on the table as she screamed "Yes! Yes! Yes!"

A clearly flustered Piers exclaimed: "Oh Blimey! Are you alright Susanna?"

She then burst into giggles and added she was "very excited" about the prospect of a new vaccine.

But some at home didn't find it funny and complained about Susanna's early-morning enthusiasm while others joined in on the joke.

Boris Johnson announced last night that the UK has stockpiled 40 million doses of the first Covid-19 jab - which requires two shots to work.

Pfizer yesterday revealed its vaccine was proven to be 90 per cent effective at preventing Covid - on what experts hailed a "great day for humanity".

It took just ten months for the Pfizer vaccine to be developed. In contrast, a traditional jab would take between ten to 15 years to develop.

Drug regulators must now wait for safety data out later this month before they can grant emergency approval for widespread use.

Piers Morgan brands Dr Hilary Jones 'Scrooge' after he reveals glaring issues with the coronavirus vaccine

However GMB show medic Dr Hilary Jones , 67, said today: "It's not going to eradicate this virus from the face of the earth and I'll tell you why.

"Supply is going to be a real problem, it has to be stored at minus 70 to minus 80 degrees which creates problems in its own right, therefore it has to be used within five days of being delivered.

"Also we need billions of doses because we need it twice to cover the whole world, and we don't know if it stops transmission of the virus."
