Schofe is back…

What do we all feel about Phillip Schofield coming back onto our TV screens? He’s posted a status on Instagram to tune in at 9am tomorrow and there are rumours online that he has filmed a show across the pond.

Personally, I think he should come back to do the job he was doing before. Dancing on Ice, This Morning… People compare him to Huw Edwards but they categorically cannot because he hasn’t been convicted of anything….

This is going to create a divide of opinions I know….

Debate!

He’s so bad that I enjoy watching him, but after seeing how he reacted to the scandal i refuse to watch someone so toxic and full of themselves. He had the audacity to compare himself to Caroline Flack and then filmed an apology video whilst sucking on a vape?! This Morning was only good as the Holly & Phil combo were car crash TV.

I don't care. I haven't watched anything with him in since he had Gordon the Gopher.

No

LunaNorth · 25/09/2024 01:49

The absolute audacity of the man.

BeautyPageantDropout · 25/09/2024 01:57

Christ almighty, the absolute ego of the man. Desperate for a comeback.

You were on tv for literal decades, you irritating little man. Enough.

WallaceinAnderland · 25/09/2024 02:02

I heard it was a castaway type programme. Pity it's only for ten days.

Zingy123 · 25/09/2024 07:21

No thanks. He always was up his own arse. Far too full of himself.

dabbadoo · 25/09/2024 07:26

apparently it's raw and emotional footage of him being a castaway on an island.
(and desperately trying to make us feel sorry for him)

2Old2Tango · 25/09/2024 07:31

Nope. Won't be watching. His appeal was largely his boyish good looks and smile, but he's looking like an old man now. He should be put out to graze, the same way a lot of women presenters are when they get older.

Oh I saw a trailer for this I think. A channel 5 thing with a man walking on a beach with text saying something along the lines of "one celebrity, one island, one chance to tell his story". The celebrity wasn't revealed.

SidekickSylvia · 25/09/2024 07:37

As the mother of 2 young sons, I won't watch anything the predatory old bastard is in.

MyOtherCarisAVauxhallZafira · 25/09/2024 07:38

This can only be about ego, he doesn't need the money

TerfTalking · 25/09/2024 07:41

not interested, he is and always has been self Absorbed. He’s had his career, he’s not short of money, let it go Phil, take up golf.

Yirk · 25/09/2024 07:42

Nope wouldn't watch him ever again, he is a nasty bit of work.

Cozylozy · 25/09/2024 07:43

No no no

pilates · 25/09/2024 07:45

No thanks - smarmy bastard

Can you explain why you think that? Why it would be appropriate?

People compare him to Huw Edwards but they categorically cannot because he hasn’t been convicted of anything….

So unless someone has been convicted of an offence like HE, their behaviour is fair game? I think there are many similar aspects of their behaviours, perhaps PS isn't interested in children, merely impressionable 'just legal' young people, maybe he just didn't get caught. Whatever the reason for the vast difference, the pattern of behaviour, at least initially, was exactly the same.

Now an update on how Gordon's doing?... good tv!

Schofe is back…
DillDanding · 25/09/2024 07:51

I’d like to see him back on TV. I was ambivalent towards him as a presenter, but his absence and replacements have shown he was actually really good at his job.

Soozikinzii · 25/09/2024 07:52

No thanks, I cannot stand him . When he was on with Holly, I always felt I was watching the school bullies share a private joke . I bet Holly wants to distance herself .

DrivingThePlot · 25/09/2024 07:54

I've never liked him, always thought there was something off about him.
