Another gushed: 'Great photos. lovely that you are doing another series. Superb!' A third chimed in: 'Great photos. 'Two of my favourite telly people.'

As Helen prepares for more scenic adventures, whispers have also emerged about her growing bond with another co-star.

Rumours are swirling that Helen has been spotted spending time with Morning Live colleague Gethin Jones-though neither has confirmed the nature of their relationship.
