It’s just quite odd…all this with Philip Schofield, then Alison Hammond was brought in, talk of blackmail in the news and she’s not on this week anymore…what on earth goes on over there 🤷🏻‍♀️

Completely agree, it's all just very odd. I absolutely never watch it as a result.

Pootlie · 28/03/2023 22:02

I don't know about Alison H but I think Philip Schofield is highly suspect character. I think they should clear out all the current presenters and try again.

purpleme12 · 28/03/2023 22:03

Gosh wonder what happened with the blackmail thing

Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert · 28/03/2023 22:04

Oh and news about Gino too..all in the same week. Nothing said about P.S by them and everyone over the top happy/Jolly the last couple of days..it’s like there’s always something behind the scenes doing down 🙈
I work afternoons-early evenings..I shouldn’t really watch this rubbish at all

Their pr and comms team must being having such a fun time at the moment!

I haven't personally seen it since it was set in Liverpool and presented by Judy and her husband. I bet they don't even have the hazardous weather map anymore.

Pootlie · 28/03/2023 22:07

Well that reminds me wasn't weather man Fred a paedophile?

NillyNoMates · 28/03/2023 22:09

PS’s brother has been in the news this week for sexually abusing a child.

Yes

Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert · 28/03/2023 22:30

@TomHanksIsFuckingAmazing It really is…like it’s all going to explode and their trying desperately to squash the lid down on it all, whilst Holly dances away.
It reminds me of a very gossipy, toxic, unprofessional school I worked at, where there was always drama…but it’s being televised.
Similar vibe to when Ps came out and the vibe around Ruth, Eamon, Amanda Holden etc.
R & E must be so relieved to be out of there
Then I see Ruth crying on Loose women 😔
I do have a life 😂9 until 1 ish is like others evening tv

It can’t be long until the programme is scrapped altogether surely? Do they still do live phone ins? Surely they’re having to vet these meticulously for fear that someone will call up and say something scandalous about Phil or similar on live tv?! Even Holly looks like she’s struggling to keep up the permanent jolly Holly persona these days.

OneFrenchEgg · 28/03/2023 22:47

They must be monitoring their socials surely?

Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert · 28/03/2023 22:49

So much dodginess (not a word I know) in the last few years, why don’t they just start from fresh

What’s going on with gino?

DarlingG · 28/03/2023 22:52

Totally! Have you seen the morning show? Since watching that I view all these shows in such a different light. They will be having full on meltdowns behind the scenes but on screen they’re all smiles. I didn’t see today’s but what’s the deal with Alison? That did seem very random to announce tonight with a photoshopped picture of Joel dommett in beside holly that he’ll be on tomorrow!

DarlingG · 28/03/2023 22:53

also the fact they’re using a male and it’s a new male.. makes you wonder if they’re testing out whether Holly and Joel would work in case things don’t pan out well for Phil

Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert · 28/03/2023 23:04

@DarlingG I just got the impression it was Alison all week as that was bigged up with all the pics from Holly of them together and on a night out etc 🤷🏻‍♀️
Then all of a sudden, Joel is on tomorrow and it’s all being reported about in the press…all so odd

OP posts:
Crikeyalmightey · 28/03/2023 23:07

I'd rather watch Joel than Alison tbh.

DarlingG · 28/03/2023 23:08

Just watched a clip from the end of today’s show and holly says ‘we’ll see you tomorrow from 10’ but then hugs Alison as it’s finishing and it sounds like she’s says thanks for being here so I’m guessing she was only doing the two days but it seems like they haven’t had anyone for the other days until very last minute or surely they would have mentioned about Joel and advertised about this whole week being random in advance

Crikeyalmightey · 28/03/2023 23:09

What's gone on with Gino, then? Wasn't he done for burglary prior to being famous?

DarlingG · 28/03/2023 23:09

Will it be their Easter holiday after this week anyway? so they’ll be hoping it’s all died down by the end of that 😬

Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert · 28/03/2023 23:14

@DarlingG Ahh ok maybe it was just for two days then, like you say, they’d normally say who’s on all week
