Susanna Reid was forced to apologise to viewers after Labour MP Yvette Cooper swore live on Good Morning Britain.
The 53-year-old news anchor grilled the shadow home secretary over the recent passing of the Rwanda Bill by the House of Lords.
After confirming that Labour would scrap the plans if they came into power in the General Election this year, Ms Cooper said the policy was a 'gimmick'.
The 55-year-old, who is the wife of Good Morning Britain co-host Ed Balls, then went on to say: 'The Home Secretary himself has described it as bats**t.'
Ms Reid quickly interrupted by saying: 'Sorry, we can't use that word on television,' as her co-host Richard Madeley couldn't help but laugh. Ms Cooper hastily apologised after the mishap, saying: 'Sorry, Susanna.'

Last night, Rishi Sunak claimed a crucial victory after the controversial Rwanda Bill was finally passed.
Peers admitted defeat in their desperate efforts to water down the legislation just before midnight, with one describing the moment as a 'funeral'.
The capitulation came after five rounds of Parliamentary 'ping-pong', which saw the proposals batted back and forth between the chambers as MPs repeatedly removed amendments made by peers.

AdvertisementThe last remaining tweak had called for an independent monitoring commission to declare the African state safe before Channel migrants could be sent there.
That had been passed by the Lords by 240 to 211, but the elected House deleted it by a margin of 312 to 237. And when peers resumed their sitting, it was clear the fight was over.
Government minister Lord Sharpe wrapped up proceedings by insisting it is 'profoundly moral and patriotic' to defend the country's borders.
The Prime Minister also doubled down on his plans to push through with the migrant flights before it was confirmed five people including a child were believed to have died in the latest Channel migrant tragedy this morning.
Hundreds set off for the UK from France today, taking advantage of calm weather the day after Parliament finally approved a new law to send arrivals to East Africa.
The French coastguard said that the dead were three men, a woman and a child, as they launched a major rescue operation off Wimereux, close to Boulogne-sur-Mer.
Before the tragedy struck, Mr Sunak this morning said he would let nothing 'stand in our way', with hopes flights may start in July.

Rishi Sunak stressed the Home Office is 'ready' to carry out the 'complex' Rwanda plan
Earlier this month, Ms Cooper leapt to the defence of deputy leader Angela Rayner after she faced fresh questions about her living arrangements.
The shadow secretary of state for the home office said her 'brilliant' superior would co-operate fully with any police or tax probe into two homes she owned in Manchester a decade ago.
It came as one of Ms Rayner's former aides told police that she had not told the truth about her real 'home', after detectives reopened an investigation into whether she registered to vote correctly.
Speaking to Sky News Ms Cooper said: 'I certainly wouldn't expect to see the personal advice about personal finances of any of my colleagues, but I think Angela has handled this in the right way and welcomed the opportunity to set out the facts.
'Keir has a very strong team around him, and rightly so - that's why I think, not only have they looked at this and been clear about it but also, Angela has as well.
'Angela is a brilliant deputy leader of our party and she is going to continue campaigning, working, (and) continue just as all of us are for the local elections, and not be deterred - political questions are always going to be raised.'
