It’s funny to recall their stand-ins until the mid-1990s were even more anonymous- essentially a male and female pairing who just *looked* a bit like them. (Stephen Rhodes and ?). I doubt the ratings dipped.

The tabloids wouldn’t have been able to run a report in the print version of their papers at how “Viewers were SHOCKED as This Morning is presented by UNKNOWN presenters”
As we know a presenter signed up to present for one week in August is big news now

A number of recent posts have been removed from this thread.
If you want to enter into a discussion about the personal lives of presenters, take it somewhere else. Our forum rules are very clear about this.
Yes, the speculation in the media about the working relationship between Holly and Phillip has implications for This Morning. The broad story can still be referred to in this thread without entering into a discussion about the allegations being made.

So in a nutshell what I gather from that 'article' posted on the previous page, two members of staff who were friendly fell out and one member of staff essentially moved to a different department. The story of thousands of workplaces the world over every single day. Not sure what there is to see here....

When a presenter goes on holiday for a week they are “replaced”, “quit” or even “axed”.
I really hate most tabloid media.

I think what's most frustrating is that people are actually paid to write drivel like that!

Just wait until Phil does stand down
- an article about him standing down, one’s about how viewers aren’t happy, dozens confirming 100% who the next host will be out of about 15 people, some being deliberately divisive to generate clicks…
… then one actually confirming it, one’s trying to get dirt on them, one announcing the ‘exact date’ the new host will start, one’s saying viewers aren’t happy, one’s saying the ratings have fallen (generally cherry picking unusually high and low editions for comparison), and then one saying he is quitting the show and being replaced (for one week at October half term)

And Holly saying anything would only add fuel to the flames.

We saw the extremes of it it with Harry last weekend - the Express ran something like 60 stories and all he did was arrive, walk into the Abbey, chat with Princess Anne and leave again.
