Holly Willoughby is left in tears on This Morning as she watches viral video of family performing lockdown version of Les Misérables song
Holly Willoughby broke down on Tuesday's episode of This Morning after watching a viral video of a singing family in coronavirus lockdown.
Holly and her ITV co-star Phillip Schofield watched the video of the Marsh family from Kent singing their own version of a classic musical song, which has scored 3.5 million views on Facebook since it was posted on Sunday.
The family performed a rendition of song One Day More from the Les Miserables, changing the lyrics to reflect life in lockdown.

Dad Dr Ben Marsh, a history lecturer at the University of Kent, and his wife Danielle sang with their four children Alfie, 13; Thomas, 12; Ella, 10; and Tess, eight, belting out lines such 'will we ever meet our friends?', 'I am bored of being with you' and 'sunshine is a bummer when we're stuck inside'.
The musical adaptation also features references to healthcare including the line 'we need more respirators now' and school closures - 'our exams have all been pulled'.
Holly and Phil gave the video a standing ovation on This Morning, as Holly gushed 'it makes me really emotional. I think it's just that family coming together.'
Speaking to Kent Online about their viral hit, Dr Marsh explained that their version of One Day More was a hit with his children, who usually refuse to sing songs from Les Mis during family singalongs because of the romantic lyrics.

'We always get together and do singalongs anyway and the kids play instruments,' he said but added that no members of the family have had any proper training.
Dr Marsh added the family have received messages from all around the world, explaining: 'There have been messages from people who are self-isolating, or even people with cancer on hospital wards, saying it has made them smile or cry.
'We really weren't expecting it and we are really touched by the way it has resonated with people.'

Invest in a wardrobe staple like Holly wearing a skirt by Roland Mouret
Holly Willoughby has been revisiting some wardrobe favourites recently on This Morning, and this Roland Mouret skirt is a classic. As she herself called it on Instagram - an oldie but a goodie!
We love the pleated frill hem on this navy style, which creates a beautiful hourglass silhouette. When teamed with a white shirt from Zara it's a smart and elegant look.

Elsewhere on Tuesday's episode of This Morning, Holly joked that she has 'never been more grateful to have such low maintenance hair,' amid the coronavirus lockdown which has seen the stars forced to do their own hair and makeup for their daily show.
'What's happened with mine as it gets longer and longer it starts to kick out at the sides,' Phil added of his own locks.
'I have to plaster it down until I can get there, the morning before it's OK and then suddenly its uncontrollable'.
'That's your cape your hair it's like your superpower, you've just got to grow it long, you'll be like a character out of the Hobbit with long silken hair,' Holly told him.
