Where’s Holly?

She’s not been on for two days, Philip S is even worse than ever and now they’re getting rid of basically the only two good presenters on it.
What a train wreck

No, they don't. It's just strange because normally they do.

Maybe it’s a personal issue. She’s entitled to privacy. And being as so many people don’t like her, they should be pleased she’s not on so it can only be that people are really nosy !

BadTattoosAndSmellLikeBooze · 19/11/2020 23:38

I do wonder why people who seem to not like the presenters, continue to watch it. The presenters are such a big part of the show. Maybe they just like to moan and enjoy reading way too much into things ? 😬

bridgetreilly · 19/11/2020 23:53

She’s allowed to have time off work without explaining why to the whole nation, ffs.

Zixxy · 20/11/2020 00:39

Who can watch this live anyway? Just wondered. And for the record I don't care about any of them. At All.

SheepandCow · 20/11/2020 00:43

Perhaps she's got Covid? Or self isolating.

PawPawNoodle · 20/11/2020 01:20

I've just rung her up and she said 'tell @Doglove to mind her own business, I don't owe her an explanation about my personal life'

In a really bizarre situation I met Davina McCall, and she is lovely, very friendly and genuinely interested in chatting

Dita73 · 20/11/2020 04:21

Acute diarrhoea. Has to be

Bellagio40 · 20/11/2020 04:59

Totally agree with Louisetrees, Ore and Rochelle are much better presenters than Alison. Davina wasn’t that great today. She seemed nervous and a bit over-excited. I wasn’t sure if PS was joking when he told her not to be patronising but knowing how thin-skinned he is, probably not.

Is it weird that they are asking the public to call in for a general chat? They haven’t had any of their experts on and why say Holly is having a well-deserved day off? She’s only there four mornings a week as it is and that’s only during term time.

I don't know who all these initials are!

Magicbabywaves · 20/11/2020 06:33

Is the gist that PS (Phil I’m guessing) rules the roost at this morning?

Mummyoflittledragon · 20/11/2020 06:38

MagicBaby
I don’t watch it but l yes, he’s a man, who’s come out as gay. How stunning and brave.

Snowman2020 · 20/11/2020 06:49

I love PS and HW! I think they are funny and the partnership they have is great. I hate E&R, I don't watch on a Friday for that reason. I don't mind Alison but not for the full show, I really like Rochelle. I liked Rylan when he has presented in the past too!

I realised I didn't like EH and RL presenting and now don't watch them.
Irisheyesrsmiling · 20/11/2020 07:20

I far prefer Eamonn and Ruth to Phillip and Holly. Wish E & R had the Mon-Thur slot and then others Fridays. I can't relate to H & P and I feel it's all too quick laugh/giddy. I love the banter between E & R! I like Alison & Dermot too. I think the shake up was misplaced and like I said would far prefer a E& R then A&D combo!

ExclamationPerfume · 20/11/2020 07:25

I love Eamonn, Ruth and Alison. They are natural and don't put on a front for the television.

Phillip and Holly just act like kids giggling over stupid things. It looks so put on a lot of the time.

nosswith · 20/11/2020 07:27

Even when not at work I realise this is at best a programme outdated for the current age and avoid it.

Have you not got a DVD, streaming service or access to IPlayer to watch something else at this time, if you are unable to be outside for a walk perhaps?

DoTheNextRightThing · 20/11/2020 07:35

Holly's probably not feeling well, but they don't want to say so in case the tabloids start saying she’s got COVID.

I really like Ruth, but I can't stand Eamonn. He’s so rude and never seems to care about what anyone is saying. He doesn't have the compassion the others have. I'd rather just keep Ruth, but they are sort of a package deal...

DoTheNextRightThing · 20/11/2020 07:37

Ruth and Rylan - that's my dream pairing!

lollipoprainbow · 20/11/2020 07:38

Don't know and don't care cannot stand the woman !! So smug and lives a charmed life, why all the concern ? I'm sure she's just fine as always.

You like bullies then, because PS is a bully. You can bet your life he’s responsible for the sacking of Ruth and Eamon, no doubt because they are both proper journalists and make him look like the empty headed, narcissistic twat he us. Wonder when the press will report the truth about his ‘relationship’ with the much younger male runner? As in younger than his two daughters...

As for Holly she’s probably just hungover, or drying out somewhere. Likes a drink or ten you see..

lollipoprainbow · 20/11/2020 08:07

@Rhine couldn't have put it better myself !! You can bet your bottom dollar that little weasel PS is right behind this.

EscapeTheCastle · 20/11/2020 08:08

Holly heard one too many anecdotes about Philips broom cupboard days and screamed "I need some time off!"

Why click on and comment just to say you're not interested @lollipoprainbow?? I think the thread could have surved without your contribution 😂😂
