Phil featured in a video message telling visitors how the games work, but all appearances by him have been removed.

Bosses at The Cube Live made the move in the wake of his affair scandal.

He has now been replaced by Colin McFarlane, who did voiceovers on the TV show. An insider at the attraction said: "Phillip has been completely erased. Bosses at The Cube Live don’t want to be associated with him in the light of recent events."

Phillip’s career fell apart after he revealed a fling with a colleague.

He stepped down from all TV roles including This Morning and Dancing on Ice and he was dropped by his agent after more than 30 years.

One industry insider told us: "Phillip’s name is mud."

Phillip has taken a step back from the public eye after he was axed from This Morning and ultimately revealed that he had a fling with a former colleague.

He quit the show after 20 years after his feud with co-star Holly Willoughby became a central focus of the show.

The following week he issued a statement confirming that he had lied to his wife, friends, colleagues, ITV and his agent about an affair with a former colleague.

At the time, he told Daily Mail: "The first thing I want to say is: I am deeply sorry for having lied to them, and to many others about a relationship that I had with someone working on This Morning.

"I did have a consensual on-off relationship with a younger male colleague at This Morning."

He added: "Contrary to speculation, whilst I met the man when he was a teenager and was asked to help him to get into television, it was only after he started to work on the show that it became more than just a friendship.

"That relationship was unwise, but not illegal. It is now over."

Phil has since cut ties with ITV and all their shows after his statement.
