Lots of comments about Holly W supposedly saying she’s going to quit This Morning..do you think she will, why? Would that be a good move?

The web page you have shared contains a lot of information. I have accumulated a lot of information. Waffle game

The mask brings more attention to them though, no? You could still tell it was Holly.

If the mask was designed to make her more anonymous she didn't think that one through... Schofield following on behind was a dead giveaway!

This will end like Caroline Flack if everyone keeps going on!!!

Agreed. Honestly can't believe people are so horrible about this. Someone told them where to go. So many others did the exact same thing. It wouldn't even have been a thing if Beckham didn't queue. People need to pipe down and get on with their lives, it's becoming embarrassing. Get a hobby. Grrrr rant over

Stop making out like she’s some sort of gold digger who only got a job through her husband’s work, rather than someone who’s actually worked their way up.

That's exactly that she is zero talent apart from either giggling or crying.

Beachbabe1 · 21/09/2022 07:47

It's about time Mr & Mrs perfect were brought down a peg or two!

That’s your opinion, but remember we don’t mix it up with facts now do we.

The queue thing is just the catalyst to people being generally sick of the two of them. The smugness in both oozes out of every pore. They are totally unprofessional always have some sort of private joke going on, find innuendo in everything then try and look serious when they have to, with her usually crying about something. They are completely out of touch with the public as the spin shambles showed, laughing at people winning money towards their energy bills when they are raking it in. But no one must ever upset precious holly like she's some sort of deity. Ruth and Rylan for me every time.

The whole fawning over David Beckham queueing was equally pathetic.

If it was Victoria Beckham and not David she’d have been pegged as fake and an attention seeker.

FixTheBeak · 21/09/2022 07:52

Surely anybody can see that the logistics of queuing for hours while a production team loiters patiently for hours is a complete
nonsense

what’s the drama ? Just turn the fucking telly off and go and live your life. it’s really
not worth the angst.

Mingot · 21/09/2022 07:52

Hopefully they'll get told to get on their bikes. I dislike the pair of them.

Did they actually laugh at people for winning energy bills though?

lollipoprainbow · 21/09/2022 07:53

@LydiaBennetsUglyBonnet that was their general demeanour as it always is.

70billionthnamechange · 21/09/2022 07:56

@GhostFromTheOtherSide pls be careful saying CF was an abuser. It's not true. Pls don't tarnish her memory, this is a massive party of why she ended her life! The lies and assumptions.

Prescottdanni123 · 21/09/2022 07:57

Whether you like Holly and Phillip or not, they didn't really do anything wrong. It would have been the producers choice to do the segment about the queen lying in state. Holly and Phil were there to do a press related job so they joined the press queue. If they had not been there to do some filming and had joined the VIP queue with their families in tow and popcorn in hand then I would understand it. But they didn't.

Eamon Holmes has always been a shit stirrer. And he's bitter because him and Ruth got the sack. If he was still on the show, he would have probably filmed that segment himself and entered via the VIP queue quite happily.

70billionthnamechange · 21/09/2022 07:59

@LydiaBennetsUglyBonnet totally. I wanted to write that too but thought it was too much for one post haha. But yeah, he wasn't press so he queued like everyone else. Bully for him in his warm coat and boots made of the most expensive insulating material you can get probs 😂😂

I doubt it. They do annoy me and I do think the whole 15 minute video today on the queens death etc was probably thrown together as a cover for the whole thing to make it look like that was just one tiny part of it. I saw they’d sent Alison and dermot out to look at the flowers as some sort of token thing as well to make it look like they were all out ‘reporting’ but to be fair they were there with the boss of this morning, you can see him in the video of them going in. The footage taken must have just been filmed on phones or something and was maybe an after thought at the time but it ties in with their cover story all the same. The thing that really baffles me about it all is why is holly wearing a mask? She’s the only person who is and doesn’t wear one for Wimbledon or anything like that so I thought that slightly made it seem like they were trying to be sly and go in without anyone noticing

Interesting tactic, no one else wearing a mask so wearing a mask will stop people noticing you. I'm not sure walking next to PS would work with that.

Not sure you're cut out for being a spy.

CarefulWithTheCabbages · 21/09/2022 08:01

I think they've probably got the message now
It's done , let's move on

regardless the programme is v stale with them fronting it I think most also think they’re both out of touch and tone deaf to the surroundings of Schofield coming out.

IncompleteSenten · 21/09/2022 08:25

Let me get this straight.
Two people in the media (for want of a better word) used the super dooper people in the media/public eye/special folk queue and now they're bad bad people for ... Using a queueing system designed by the organisers to 'fast track' super dooper people in the media/public eye/special folk.

Burn them.

Burn them all.

sunglassesonthetable · 21/09/2022 08:28

Nah . It'll blow over. But there will always be a whiff......

Course she's upset. Probably first time she's ever not been ' lovely Holly' .

But it's a great platform for her and probably pays her gizillions.

Maybe it'll be a while till she gets another M&S campaign though .......😁

lollipoprainbow · 21/09/2022 08:30

Totally disrespectful that they were there at all. Two presenters from a crappy magazine show! Not serious journalists or broadcasters, they brought the whole tone down.

TrueNorthernBird · 21/09/2022 08:32

It's my understanding that they had press accreditation, gaining access to a platform alongside the room. They then dropped down from the platform to walk around the coffin (they've said this was outside the main queue) and it's this that was essentially 'queue jumping' in some eyes. They've 'cut in' at the front of the 'traffic lights'.

Ultimately, people are using this as an excuse to voice their opinion about two presenters who appear to have fallen out of general favour. Last straw and all that.

Not a fan of either of them but a public pile on is unedifying.

Sparklingbrook · 21/09/2022 08:33

Apparently the petition for H&W to be sacked has reached 29,000 signatures. But I still believe this will blow over and I don't think they'll be addressing it again on air. Things will just carry on the same as ever.
If they get front row seats for the Coronation then we can do it all again...

Sparklingbrook · 21/09/2022 08:33

H&P! No idea who W is. 🤔
