Tobin was providing updates on what was the coldest night of winter so far, but ended up unintentionally “brightening the mornings” of a number of viewers.
During a segment, Tobin got caught up while describing the “sleet and snow” expected in the south east.
“It’s now slowly turning back to sleet and rain, but [making] a very slutty, slushy, deposits,” she said.
She attempted to rectify her mistake but appeared to repeat the same word.
Good Morning Britain viewers picked up on the awkward error, with one viewer tweeting: “What's all this about a slutty deposit?”
Another commented: “Slutty deposit.... #ukweather Sorry Laura it brightened our morning.”
Good Morning Britain is presented by Susanna Reid and Piers Morgan, the latter of whom has already used his first week back after Christmas to go after a number of celebrities.
On Monday (4 January), Morgan condemned TV host Kirstie Allsopp for making “cretinous” comments after she accused the BBC of “scaring kids” about coronavirus.
During the same show, he called comedian James Acaster a “little pasty-faced weasel” for swearing at Lorraine Kelly.
