<p>The This Morning presenter, 60, appeared on the popular show alongside wife Ruth Langsford, also 60, on Friday – with the pair watching scenes from the BBC’s Ambulance programme.</p>
<p>The episode saw a boy save his father’s life by calling 999 and resuscitating him, following a suspected heart attack.</p>

<p>Following this, the pair discussed Langsford’s labour with their son, with Holmes saying: “<i>All I can say is, when your contractions started when you had Jack, I don’t like singing my own praises, but thank goodness I was the ambulance that day. I got you there in the nick of time.</i>”</p>
<p>Ruth replied saying she had had to direct him to the hospital, but Holmes replied: “<i>Did I get you there? Did you have the child in the hospital under medical supervision?</i></p>
<p><i>“All’s well that ends well, thanks to me.</i>”</p>
<p>After the show aired, Holmes replied to messages on Twitter criticising him for his response to the scene.</p>
