Prepare to go green with envy, as one of the Loose Women panel got to cosy up to James Martin, when he appeared on the show on Tuesday (5 March).

The lucky lady was Coleen Nolan, whose face was an absolute picture as the TV star gave her a hug, and to be fair we'd probably have looked the same.

James was on Loose Women to talk all things James Martin's Great British Adventure and of course Pancake Day, showing off his foolproof recipe and impressing the panellists with his impressive pancake-making tips.

During his visit to the set, Coleen managed to get a big hug, and the special moment was shared on the Loose Women Instagram page.

Showing her looking rather pleased with herself, as James looks on and laughs, the post was captioned: "Look how happy our @coleen_nolan was to have @jamesmartinchef as a guest on the show 😊💕 He brought in some delicious pancakes as well. How are you serving your #pancakes today?"

And it seems it's not just us who is jealous of the encounter, with fans of the show leaving comments gushing comments.

One fan wrote: "I wouldn’t say no to a hug off him too,' and another added: 'Hes fab i love him x [sic]."

On the show James shared his top tips for making the perfect pancakes, which included being able to freeze the batter for a later date and getting the pan really hot before adding the mixture.

A known lover of butter, he also insisted that you should always use butter when it comes to cooking pancakes, no other oils or sprays.
