Just adore her. Finally one of the main presenters on This Morning today (guilty pleasure tv during my summer holidays)

She is so genuine warm and the bes r personality on the show Smile

I imagine she'd be an awesome Auntie, the one that you're excited to see, buys the best gifts, picks you up at 3am when your pissed and spent your cab money and finds the whole thing amusing.

Choochoose · 14/08/2020 21:08

Alison is someone many women can relate to and I think she should be on TV more than she is.

I absolutely agree with this!

Ginger1982 · 14/08/2020 21:19

I loved her interview with Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling!

Harrison Ford is a notorious grumpy bugger but that interview is hilarious its when they break open the booze 🤣

And then she says she doesn't even drink 🤣

Hilarious from the first moment when she's talking to Ryan about the glasses and he asks if she's a fan of Blade Runner and, quick as a flash, 'never seen it.' 😆

I love her. Watched her way back in Big Brother.

It's time they shook up the ITV morning presenters. Get rid of Lorraine, Holly, Phil, Adil Ray, Ranvir.

Julmust · 15/08/2020 00:27

I think we need feelgood people like Alison more than ever in recent times, as life has had a lot of stresses and negatives for many.

Tillygetsit · 15/08/2020 03:46

She's an absolute Goddess! She was my favourite ever BB contestant and I was gutted when she was voted out so early. She deserves every bit of success that comes her way. A natural talent.

Mrsjayy · 15/08/2020 12:09

Noo Keep Ranvir get rid of Piers bloody Morgan , Adil I can take or leave.

itsgettingweird · 15/08/2020 12:17

@Mrsjayy

Noo Keep Ranvir get rid of Piers bloody Morgan , Adil I can take or leave.
Agree!

Prefer Ranvir as political correspondent but she's really good at it.

PM and SR need to go. I use to like her but even when she was hosting with others towards the end she just seemed to lack 'something'

I actually live Adil Ray. Have really enjoyed him with Kate.

Thought Sean and Charlotte were great Friday.

Also always loved Ben and Kate. But despite liking Ben I don't like him unless he's hosting with Kate. Kate is good whoever she is with.

SunshineCake · 15/08/2020 12:23

I don't like Ranvir - patronising and always saying actually when she thinks she is imparting wisdom we haven't thought of.

Advil gives his opinion too much.

Lorraine is okay but a bit arse lucky at times.

Love Piers.

Like Suzanna.

Charlotte - no thanks.

Laura, more please.

This Morning- get rid of Phillip and Holly, Rochelle and Amanda Holden. Have Alison and Rylan as main presenters with Sarah Green guest presenting.

itsgettingweird · 15/08/2020 12:34

Agree with more Laura. I've actually found that without PM there and being allowed to speak she has a massive personality and is very funny.

She's an extremely intelligent woman and I adore her passion for meteorology.

areyoubeingserviced · 15/08/2020 13:18

Agree that since Piers has been off, that some of the presenters have now been given the opportunity to speak and show their personalities
Andi is the consummate professional and I think he would be ideal on something like Strictly Come Dancing ( Tess needs the help) or the X factor as a main presenter. Definitely underrated
I like Sean,Charlotte , Ben and Kate on GMB. Think that Ranvir is great as a political correspondent, but don’t enjoy her as a main presenter.
Not a fan of Piers, but he attracts a particular demographic, so he isn’t going anywhere .
Susanna is ok.
I actually enjoy Eamon and Ruth, even though Eamon can be a bit of an idiot.
I don’t watch This Morning when Holly and Phil are on, because I don’t like a Phil. He’s bloody awful

itwilldropoff · 15/08/2020 18:04

I bloody love her, she seems so genuine and just makes me laugh. I’m sure I’ve read somewhere that she is getting her own chat show but I’ve no idea where I saw it

Prettybluepigeons · 15/08/2020 18:07

She was on radio 2 this afternoon in place of Rylan and was SO much better!

Yes I seen something like that. Hopefully it will happen
Callardandbowser · 15/08/2020 21:29

I love her too, she went on the brilliant podcast by Josh Widdiocome and Rob Beckett (both comedians) and she was so naturally funny, it was brilliant!
I wish all the good things for her!

ballsdeep · 15/08/2020 21:34

Did anyone notice on twitter earlier, someone tweeted something like Alison would be too much every day and she replied and said 'agreed 💙'
The overwhelming majority of tweets were disgusted and were singing Alison's praises. I hope she gets her own show. I'd definitely watch. I don't think she is phoney, I thi k she doesn't take herself seriously which is bloody refreshing these days

Mumdiva99 · 15/08/2020 21:35

@Prettybluepigeons I had to switch her off.....the cackle was too much.

I love Rylan. Unfortunately Alison was too much (and I can deal with the Elaine Paige laugh!)

Chicchicchicchiclana · 15/08/2020 21:38

I had to turn her off within about 15 seconds on R2 this afternoon! I don't particularly like Rylan but he doesn't make me reach for the off button.

Recommend this episode of this podcast for Alison fans.

Oh ignore that link, it doesn’t do what id hoped.

Lockdown parenting hell is the name of the podcast
