The actress laughed off the awkward moment

The host commented on Liz's appearance in musical, saying: "You mentioned your condition, but the fact is you're there and you just happen to be in a wheelchair."

In reference to the integration of disabled and able-bodied actors, Liz said: "That's the way it should be."

Liz campaigns for disability rights and has previously spoken about the public perception of disabilities, telling The Guardian: "There is often hypocrisy in our obsession with language.

"Many people use the 'right' language but still see me as a cripple, if you see what I mean. So they use the proper term, but they sitl look at me and say: 'Yeah, but I wouldn't want to sleep with her.'"

Lorraine airs weekdays at 8.30am on ITV.
