Loose Women took an awkward turn on Tuesday as Coleen Nolan made a cheeky Ruth Langsford Christmas outfit dig on the hit ITV lunchtime chat show

Loose Women took an awkward turn on Tuesday as Coleen Nolan made a cheeky Ruth Langsford Christmas outfit dig.

During the latest episode, the panellists were discussing the subject: “Are older people portrayed unfairly on TV?” to which Coleen, 58, said: “Well, when I turned 50… I instantly felt invisible and even now, I feel I have to…”

Ruth, 63, was quick to interject as she joked: “What, in that jacket? Even in that jacket?” to which Coleen, who was wearing a green blazer, said: “Well that’s why I’m wearing it! At least I don’t look like a Brillo pad!”

Ruth, who was wearing a silver sparkly outfit, saw the funny side as she exclaimed: “Touché, touché!” Janet Street-Porter then got involved, saying: “That’s because before we came on air, I said that Ruth’s skirt reminded me of the great new scourer I got for three-for-one at the supermarket!”

Standing up to show off her outfit in full, Ruth joked: “That’s what I have to put up with, people! Yes, it’s bullying in the workplace!” However, things then took a nicer turn as Janet, 76, added: “But honestly, Ruth, your outfit proves you can wear anything because it looks great!”

Coleen then made another cheeky remark about scouring pads to which Ruth jokingly warned: “You’re in trouble today, we will have to take a break now, I’ll be having words with them!” It’s been a busy week for Coleen as she was hilariously left gobsmacked on Monday’s Good Morning Britain as she was grilled about The Real Full Monty: Jingle Balls.

The powerful show sees Coleen and Ashley Banjo take on a new troupe of celebrities as they prepare to bare all on stage during a group dance to raise awareness of important cancer checks. This year, Julia Bradbury, Sherrie Hewson, Gemma Collins, Vanessa Bauer, Victoria Ekanoye, Paul Burrell, Ashley Cain, Ben Cohen, Ella Vaday and Pete Wicks join the line-up as they each share their personal reasons for wanting to raise awareness of cancer.

On Monday’s GMB, Coleen said: “It’s to raise awareness and you hope that’s what it is doing. But every year we get messages after the show to say, ‘while we were watching, I checked myself, I went to the doctors and it was or it wasn’t’. It just reminds people to check themselves all the time!”

Host, Ed Balls, then cheekily asked: “And are you always surprised by what you see?,” to which Coleen replied: “What do you mean? During the show? I mean, I try not to look!

“You know what, it’s funny because I’ve done it so much now but that moment in the show I still dread every single year. I still only do it, in that moment. I don’t do it any other time apart from the show.”

Ed then asked: “Do you look away?,” to which Coleen replied: “It’s not that I look away, I’ve just never looked! I’ve never actually looked! People go: ‘Oh, so you know, what’s Ashley like?’ and I go: ‘I don’t know, I’ve never looked! It’s just not a thing I do!’ I swear to God I don’t, I really really don’t.”
