How well do Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield actually know each other?
We put the This Morning presenting duo to the Newlywed Game test...
They present This Morning together four days a week. They've won a host of TV awards. But are they really best friends? There's only one way to find out: subject the pair to an in-depth quiz on each other...
Holly on Phil
1. What colour are his eyes?
Holly Oh my… I look at him every day and I really don’t know! Hazely-brown?!

3. Which soap is he addicted to?
Holly He’s a Corrie fan.
Phil Corrie.
4. What would he choose as a final meal?
Holly This is one of our favourite games! He’s going for a soft-shell crab starter, steak with peppercorn sauce and a cheese board for dessert.

Phil Sherlock.
6. His perfect holiday destination?
Holly He has a house out in Portugal, where they go every year, so probably there.
