I love how people on here sneer about the tabloids but are willing to believe half-baked rumours about TV posted by other members which never come to anything.

The fact Phillip issued a statement late on Thursday elevated this whole affair. A lot of the coverage- most of it in the tabloids- seems entirely legitimate given that he himself has commented on it.

Something very interesting is taking place at the heart of This Morning, but folks here are missing it in their attacks on the British media. London Lite above (in his last sentence) has worked out what I’m told is going on.

Completely agree. I think some people here are that blinded by their love of TV that they think everyone on it is infallible. Look, I loathe Dan Wootton, for many reasons - but he was part of ITV daytime for years, alongside Schofield. Do you not think that perhaps - just perhaps - he knows much more than he can let on? The reason he, and some of us here, are being so vague about the goings-on at This Morning is that there may or may not be injunctions in place. I can't and won't say any more because I don't want to see this thread get closed.
