Cat Deeley Corrected by Bob Geldof on ITV

News summary

During a live segment on ITV's This Morning, host Cat Deeley faced embarrassment as Sir Bob Geldof corrected her multiple factual errors regarding Band Aid. Initially, Deeley mistakenly claimed that Band Aid had raised nearly £2 million, only to correct herself to £200 million before Geldof clarified that the actual figure is around £480 million. Furthermore, while discussing an upcoming documentary about the iconic song 'Do They Know It's Christmas?', Deeley incorrectly stated it would air on Channel 4, prompting Geldof to correct her that it would be on BBC Four. Despite the gaffes, the atmosphere remained light-hearted, with both Deeley and her co-host Andi Peters laughing off the blunders. Geldof humorously questioned Deeley's research skills, leading to a lively exchange. The documentary is set to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the original Band Aid single, highlighting its historical significance.
