It seems like the stories about the old silver fox are ramping up. Feel like there's more mileage in this one that we know...

Never liked him tbh he comes across as very fake

Loveislandaddict · 07/12/2019 15:03

Holly was like a different person on “I’m a celebrity” last year. Much preferred her on that than on TM.

Butterymuffin · 07/12/2019 15:03

What is this current story about him then?

SnorkMaiden81 · 07/12/2019 15:07

I'm another one who has a visceral dislike of him. I hate those deeply unfunny, attention seeking 'oh look I'm a bit drunk, I'm so funny' vids he trots out.

I suspect his previous successes have created quite a mean spirited ego driven diva underneath the saccharine sweet facade. Ugh.

lilgreen · 07/12/2019 15:10

I used to like him but he’s become a believer of his own hype. Holly W should not become too embroiled as I think he’s clinging to her rising star to maintain his position. I find his bragging about shared holidays a bit much.

MaudebeGonne · 07/12/2019 15:10

Holly was at a hen party in a bar we were in about 10 years ago and she seemed really nice. She looked like she was having fun and she was well loved by the group of pals she was with.

JenniferM1989 · 07/12/2019 15:14

I only watch this morning when it's Ruth and Eamon, Rylan and Rochelle or a mix of the two. Holly and Phil together irritate me

Wendyasbury · 07/12/2019 15:18

What's the current story,? I've not seen anything

ManonBlackbeak · 07/12/2019 15:23

I wonder if he’s ever personally thanked John Leslie for his career revival? After all he was just a washed up former kids TV presenter when all that icky stuff about JL came out and he had to leave This Morning.

Horrible, arrogant little man IMO.

RebootYourEngine · 07/12/2019 15:23

The current story is that Ruth, Gino and Rylan have made complaints about him.

He has been up his own arse for years now. The way Fern Britton was treated was despicable. He is on everything on ITV and it is boring. They need new presenters.

NumbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrsStation · 07/12/2019 15:25

Grim turtle necks?

Grim bastard turtle head as well Grin

Loved the description of HW. Couldn’t have said it better myself. @MistyCloud

She thinks she is all that now she has tucked her wallopers in.

ManonBlackbeak · 07/12/2019 15:25

And yes, Holly is a totally different person away from him. She seemed so much more comfortable with Dec on IAC.

HowlsMovingBungalow · 07/12/2019 15:27

He's the 'booze expert' for Waitrose's weekend paper - it is an odd pairing.

ManonBlackbeak · 07/12/2019 15:31

He strikes me a bit of a pisshead, he’s totally obsessed with wine and alcohol.

GlitterToast · 07/12/2019 15:35

I’ve met Holly, and she was genuinely really nice. She is also just as good looking in the flesh.

Foxyloxy1plus1 · 07/12/2019 15:36

I don’t think it’s a secret that Amanda Holden and him don’t er get on. Ruth Langsford has allegedly made a formal complaint and several of the other presenters on the show are said to be unhappy with him.

It’s not so long ago that he was holidaying with HW and her family though is it?

ArthurEyeTits · 07/12/2019 15:40

Numbrrr
Grin. Grin. Grin

ManonBlackbeak · 07/12/2019 15:44

Someone obviously has it in for him behind the scenes as this has been leaked by someone. Ruth, Rylan, Gino. I bet Phil Vickery and Eamon do as well.

Span1elsRock · 07/12/2019 15:48

There's a story in the sideline of the DM today about how several of the presenters (Ruth, Eamon, Alison and Rylan as well as Gino) were missing from the This Morning Christmas party.......

I can't stand him or his muttley laughing. He and Holly were fun about 10 years ago but now it's just nauseating.

astralweaks · 07/12/2019 15:50

his muttley laughing.

😂

SaveKevin · 07/12/2019 15:50

If I remember rightly Phil vickery fell out with him years ago as well.

ForalltheSaints · 07/12/2019 15:53

If this means the end of This Morning, then no bad thing. Assuming that the suggestions are true.

I agree with the sentiments about Fern Britton who is an excellent presenter.

RageAgainstTheSnowMachine · 07/12/2019 15:54

Ah just read this. ITV have put out a denial of any ill feeling or feuding.
Maybe has come about because Ruth Eamonn Alison and Rylan were not at the xmas do but...so what.
James Jordan, Matt Evers amongst others have come out in support.

NumbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrsStation · 07/12/2019 15:54

I’m guessing the missing party goers were having an alternative party somewhere else.

Somewhere far away where they didn’t have to watch old greydilocks getting pissed out of his shell.

NumbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrsStation · 07/12/2019 15:55

Bring back Fern.
