The 39-year-old controversial panellist turned her back on the lunchtime show temporarily two months ago so she could focus on her marriage with her husband Kieran Hayler but her return to the show has certainly been exciting as she vowed to ditch the booze entirely next month as part of the famous Dry January challenge.

Speaking on the programme, she said: " Believe it or not, I don't drink at home at all. Unless I've got a party, I couldn't think of anything worse than going home and having a glass of wine. What do you get out of a glass of wine? I'm a binge drinker. If I'm going to go out, it's all or nothing. So when I go out, I only go out to get drunk. I get drunk very quickly but I still last all night. I think I'm really funny. I can be quite filthy minded.

"But I think people are laughing with me, they're probably laughing at me. I like to sing but I don't know that cut-off point. I don't know the line but then I think, Oh it's alright, they love it.' In the morning, I still remember what I did."

However, the show's main host Ruth Langsford challenged Katie to give up the booze for 31 days - starting on January 1 - in a bid to prove she's "not much of a drinker."

To which Katie said: "I would probably be fine not drinking for a month. I would do it because I know I'm not a drinker. I go to nightclub sometimes to do work but I don't have to drink. I will win this year."
