Piers Morgan storms off set after being called out by Alex, the GMB weatherman, on his behaviour

[chomalungma]

And his obsession with Meghan Markle.

Good. Piers Morgan is obsessed with her. And Alex called it right.

It's just American style concocted drama/outrage to get viewers. It's transparent, pathetic and dumb. He's playing a role (which admittedly he can do quite easily because he's rather unpleasant) but please don't fall for this reality tv 'drama.' It's not real.

@RickiTarr

Yes but we’re supposed to be in the BLM era now, and in an age of better MH awareness, so he won’t keep getting away with this obsessive Meghan weirdness. Not now she’s spoken about being suicidal. Not indefinitely.

I hope so, but he's been getting away with it for three years.

Smacked arse - not smacked arise.

In fact 'smacked arse' is my phrase of the moment as I can't think of a better way to describe Morgan's face.

Exactly.

Tomorrow's viewing figures will be HUGE.

Yes - Morgan plays pantomime villain most days I've seen him, but today he was genuinely stung the weatherman brought him down. That was not a staged 'act', he was genuinely stuffed by Alex (with a smacked arse face to prove it 😂😂)
No recovery for Morgan
He can no longer call people 'snowflakes', accuse them of 'throwing their toys out the prom', or 'refusing to be questioned in daytime TV'.

He showed he was guilty of all 3 of those! 😂😂😂

ITV daytime are heading for disaster. All that fuss about hiring more BAME staff, but for the long This Morning slot all they did was move that Big Brother woman (Alison, is it?) from roving reporter to half of a Friday, term time double act.

I’m not really familiar with Loose Women, but I’m told they have a couple of good black presenters now. So that’s something but it’s a terrible format and the useless Lorraine is still in her slot.

Their tokenism is showing.

@HmmmmmmInteresting

ITV hired him despite him hacking the phone of a dead teenage girl

THIS

Never have I read so many posts about someone's arse. Smacked/on a plate, you name it. Still think his reaction was a total set up and no arses were handed anywhere really.

See what tomorrow brings...

@ExcusesAndAccusations

To be fair Hmminteresting that wasn’t him, that was the News Of The World. He was guilty of phone hacking other people, of insider trading and of publishing faked photos defaming British soldiers though.

NOPE Morgan and the Mirror were in it up to their eyeballs

tomorrow's viewing figures will be HUGE

Possibly to see what the arrogant eejit has to say for himself (will he turn up?) and how the female sidekicks Charlotte and Suzanna behave (will they act like serious journalists or just 'studio decor')

But this was not staged - Morgan was slapped back by Alex the weatherman 😂😂

ITV is trash. I wish advertisers would boycott them and hit them where it hurts- their wallet. That's the only way this shit will stop. Us little people are powerless thanks to the people that watch this stuff.

We’ll believe you. Thousands wouldn’t.

Suzanne Reid is useless. Is she meant to be a co-host? She just sits there like an idiot, pulling stupid faces while being complicit in his bullying.

Lorraine must have some dirt on someone high up at ITV. She has retained that slot for so long. remember when she and Aled Jones got the main gig, then he got bunged out and still she kept that slot.
Also it irritates me that she has Half Term and other school holidays off even though her DD is in her twenties.

Ranvir Singh covered the most recent one and was brilliant.

I don't tend to open threads about arses. there's one at the moment about an anal skin tag. Bleurgh.

Piers has quit GMB!

Piers Morgan has resigned

Refuse to watch. That’s the main power the public have.

I sometimes need to see snippets of what goes on on ITV daytime, and when that happens I watch YouTube clips. I won’t stream it and I won’t watch it live.

I will happily read about it on MN when it goes tits up, though.

Yes they'll be tuning in to see what he's got set up this time...

Please don't tease us!

Really? Excellent.

Told you he wasn’t untouchable.

Yeah well we agree that it's pantomime and then 'this time it was different.' I don't think so. It's the equivalent of a TOWIE drink thrown in someone's face. It's theatre. Stop buying it!

Has he quit. If he has I believe that it was staged even more.
