Where’s Ruth?

On This morning?
First time I’ve watched in a week or so, was loving Ruth and Eamon on, now just Eamon 🤷🏻‍♀️
At least it’s not Pip & squeak I guess

Was supposed to be Alison Hammond this week but she's ill so Eamon's there instead

It was meant to be Vernon but he has tested positive, so Damon has stepped in.

neverearlythoughItry · 31/08/2021 10:22

Eamon not Damon!

Ah yes, this is correct - ignore my post. I think she was first stand in but she was also ill hence Eamon
Flipthatpancakehighboy · 31/08/2021 10:53

So when are the other two back and why didn’t Eamon and Ruth just continue until they were back?
What a shambles!

Maybe Ruth had made other commitments?

@Flipthatpancakehighboy

Fortunately it’s not important 😂😂😂

Flipthatpancakehighboy · 31/08/2021 10:59

@GorgonzolaSouffle 🤣What?! It’s of upmost importance

It was meant to be Rochelle hosting this week with Allison on Monday and then Vernon with her the rest of the week. Vernon tested positive for covid so that ruled him out but not sure about why Allison didn't turn up, ill maybe?

As for Ruth maybe she is back on loose women this week or her and Eamon might have actually had plans for a holiday/break rhemselves.

So when are the other two back?! 🙈

@Flipthatpancakehighboy

Turn the tv off and get the hideous Eamon out of your head….. you might need bleach.

She was the best stand in by miles

I absolutely loved her on Going Live when I was a child.

@GorgonzolaSouffle But I adore him!! Totally get what Ruth sees in him, for an older man, anyway

What the actual fuck is going on, my head is going to explode, the presenters yesterday and today were terrible, screeching, stupid dancing, just dreadful
Who are their target audience now? Gordon the Gopher would be a better choice IMO

Flipthatpancakehighboy · 02/09/2021 16:47

@FannyBrice I haven’t even watched it 🙈who was it today? Really gone down the pan, just keep Eamon & Ruth consistently and be done with it 🤷🏻‍♀️
Be worse when P & H are back 😩

Is lorraine kelly still on school holidays even though her daughter is about 30??

FannyBrice · 02/09/2021 17:12

Rochelle and Andy (Peters?) today @Flipthatpancakehighboy, just dire......., yesterday was Rochelle and Alison blasting out 'here come the girls' eugh, over the top rubbish
Obviously I could have turned it off but I rather moan about it Grin

Flipthatpancakehighboy · 02/09/2021 17:41

@FannyBrice 🤣God, it’s so bad

OP posts:
Flipthatpancakehighboy · 02/09/2021 17:42

Surely the viewer ratings have done down?!

@ssd Not sure about Lorraine as I’m subjected to my toddlers CBeebies in the morning

I thought Eamon and Ruth were unceremoniously dumped in favour of Alison Hammond and Dermot on Fridays? So it would be pretty humiliating to have to act as stand-ins for what used to be your job. If the producers called her last minute I hope Ruth told them to go fuck themselves.

Flipthatpancakehighboy · 02/09/2021 18:07

@Chicchicchicchiclana That’s true, hope she did, but Eamon didn’t 🤷🏻‍♀️

Can’t stand Eammon and Ruth. He’s an awful man.

I watch This Morning every day except in the summer when they’re hosting. They’re just unbearable and yes, thankfully, have been ousted.

Ruth wasn’t needed. She won’t have been asked.

A male presenter was needed to stand in for Vernon testing positive for Covid.
