This Morning's Phillip Schofield sets crisp packet on FIRE after microwaving it in bizarre Snapchat video

PHILLIP Schofield appears to have a new hobby as the This Morning presenter spent his Sunday night shrinking crisp packets and even set one on FIRE in the microwave.

The telly favourite has been on a break from the ITV morning show and spent his week off in Dubai where bad weather put a dampener on his holiday.

However, it seems he knows how to make his own fun and taking to Snapchat, Phillip posted a picture of a charred crisp packet and wrote: "When the conversation gets round to how we used to shrink crisp packets in the oven...but you forget at what temperature" followed by a laughing emoji.

He then shared a number of pictures of shrunken Hula Hoops packets as he got the hang of making miniature size crisp packets.

However, it all went wrong when he tried to do it in the microwave.

He shared a video of a red packet quickly exploding within seconds of him turning it on before the video cut off.

Phillip wrote: "Btw...don't do it in the microwave! Thankfully my finger shot off record so you didn't get the language".

Meanwhile, it's back to the day job for Phillip and his co-host Holly Willoughby today and fans can't wait to see them back on the This Morning couch.

While Holly enjoyed a family getaway to the slopes, Phillip didn't have any luck in Dubai as the weather was downcast and rainy the entire time.
