Seconds after she fainted, ITV’s broadcast cut away and headed straight to a commercial break while they attended to Woods.

She was then taken off air, with stand-in presenter Katie Shanahan confirming that Woods had taken ill and was being treated.

“Gosh that was a bit weird,” Woods later said via her own Instagram account. “Sorry to worry everyone, im ok, the wonderful paramedics at Saints have said its probably a virus, just need a bit of rest & hydration.

“I’m really embarrassed that happened on tv, but a big thank you to my colleagues at ITV who have really looked after me tonight.

“And to Wright and Neets for catching me and sorry again.”

Following a week of recovery, however, the national favourite is now set to return to screens, resuming presenting duties with TNT Sports’ broadcast of Real Madrid against Manchester City.

She’ll be joined by a star-studded line-up of Steven Gerrard, Joleon Lescott and Steve McManaman for the Madrid-based match, with Darren Fletcher and Ally McCoist on commentary.
