So Piers Morgan has huffed off.

OP posts:

'OMG no. Not him-please!'

Grin.

Maybe Dr Hilary could step in then 🥰

Yes, I love Dr H.
Liquorishtoffee · 09/03/2021 18:43

Did he jump or was he pushed?

GetOffYourHighHorse · 09/03/2021 18:46

@Liquorishtoffee

Did he jump or was he pushed?
Pushed. So Twitter says so it must be true.

'Yes, I love Dr H. '

No no he could never be an arse surely. He's the voice of reason on that cesspit show. Ben is quite nice too though I noted he has been displaying Morgan like sneery tendencies of late.

Sparklingbrook · 09/03/2021 18:50

Bet there's some Dr H dirt somewhere!

So who have we got apart from Dr H? Ben's ok ish. AB is a weatherman. How about Rylan?

JemimaTab · 09/03/2021 18:54

I reckon he was pushed. Or possibly was told he had to rein it back/apologise and stomped off in a strop. What a ridiculous toxic little man. Hope he doesn’t pop up anywhere else any time soon.

Thedogscollar · 09/03/2021 18:57

Hallelujah he's gone. No great loss.

MamaMeAh · 09/03/2021 19:00

It's about time the other presenters were allowed to shine. They are more than capable
I think Ben would make a welcome addition too

@GetOffYourHighHorse

Brilliant news. Be interesting to see ministers actually interviewed on gmb now rather than shrieked at. Maybe they'll bring Eamonn back Grin.
Please noooooooo.

Can't stand him either!

My vote is Adil Ray or Sean Fletcher.

@GetOffYourHighHorse

'can't believe he is allowed to get away with the vitriol he spouts about people especially Meghan and Harry it's outrageous.'

He thinks he's Jeremy Paxman or Andrew Neil but he just seems so out of his depth. Doesn't let ministers answer questions and imo was grossly irresponsible with his 'we're all going to die!' At the start of the pandemic.

I do wonder why gmb don't have someone more intelligent on with a bit of charm. He just sneers constantly.

Though I have to disagree with the supportive comments about Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, she equally shouts mocks and sneers.

Dan walker on BBC1 is interesting and pleasant.

I hate PM for the way he acted at the start of the pandemic alone.

It really felt like he bounced the government in more draconian measures than were needed, when a more sensible approach involving shielding the elderly/vunerable would have been better.

itsgettingwierd · 09/03/2021 19:13

Just read the news.

41k complaints about him saying he didn't believe Meghan was suicidal. The most complaints over a programme in past 15 years.

Statement from itv is basically he quit and we haven't argued 🤣

Oh God no. PM was the lesser of two evils surely. I dislike Eamonn even more smug git lol
SomeRandomerOnBumsnet · 09/03/2021 19:15

@Janegrey333

I don’t have the time or the inclination to watch daytime television.

Obviously I have read about this. Sounds like a win for Piers.

Yeah I imagine channeling Hyacinth Bucket on Mumsnet must take up a lot of your time
Sparklingbrook · 09/03/2021 19:17

Can we start a petition to not have Eamonn Holmes please?

RedRum27 · 09/03/2021 19:20

He will probably end up on Andrew Neil’s new GB News channel

This. ITV should be ashamed they gave the bully free rein for so long.

Toodles Piers 👋

Roussette · 09/03/2021 19:22

Eamonn Holmes won't be back I don't think. He cooked his goose with a few dodgy comments on stuff.

AnyFucker · 09/03/2021 19:23

Eamon is too busy filming crappy adverts about his aching legs. Money grubbing person.

Those ads are bloody hilarious. I expect to see him in those ads for funeral plans. He'll be visiting June soon.
Roussette · 09/03/2021 19:26

Hasn't he been in an ad for unlocking equity in your home too?

JackieWeaverHandforthCouncil · 09/03/2021 19:30

Farage has some spare time On his hands. Don’t think he’s dodgy investment scam is working for him.

itsgettingwierd · 09/03/2021 19:39

I've been saying for months he's unraveling like trump. My comments as such are on MN posts left right and centre.

I made a comment when trump unravelled that it's interesting that he turned on him but couldn't see that his behaviour mirrored his.

I don't think Piers is well. I've also said that lots. He's taken a lot of this pandemic personally and has been a huge hypocrite. I lost respect for him when he flew to Antigua for Christmas.

He had his own control over media. The last 2 shows have seen Shola, Trisha, Alex, Dr H, Chris (the royal guy) and SR all call his behaviour out.

He went from being controversial for figures to down right deranged.

kittycorner · 09/03/2021 19:54

So glad he's gone.

You are right he's unravelling. He's response to MM has always been very very very disproportionate to the situation. And it's getting worse. He went way too far. I don't like his politics but this was way beyond this. Far too targeted and far too personal.

derxa · 09/03/2021 20:00

I think he's just bored to tears with GMB to be honest. Sorry that doesn't fit in with unravelling theory.

JackieWeaverHandforthCouncil · 09/03/2021 20:08

I suspect he’s having some type of personal issue. He behaves more like a toddler than someone in control of their emotions.

I suspect we’ll hear of a divorce or maybe charges brought in relation to historical phone hacking allegations in the coming months.

Sparklingbrook · 09/03/2021 20:12

I think that played a part, even without this debacle he would have left in the next few months probably.
