To think This morning is a weird place

[Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert]

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 🤷🏻‍♀️

Gino just quit the road trip show he does with Ramsey & the geezer off 1st dates, Fred?. Something to do with contracts & them not agreeing to him starting late so he can have a few bevvies of an evening. Shame, I quite liked the 3 if them together.

Easter holidays after I assume so they’ll have god knows who on and then back to Philip & Holly…or..not 😬

Not sure exactly what Gino has done but saw a newspaper article about him making contestants feel uncomfortable or something

It's all very weird.

No Joel save yourself

So according the Mail link I posted ^^, Philip Schofield's apparently & allegedly knew that his brother was a wrong 'un a couple of years before the victim told a therapist; and it was the therapist who reported it to the police, not Philip Schofield.

It's tough for a well-known person when a sibling turns out to be a paedophile or alleged paedophile - it has happened to Penny Mordaunt, the Leader of the Commons for example - but they do of course have a valid defence of 'how on could I possibly have known?'

This case would appear to be a bit more complicated.

Court case ongoing, obviously.

PS is away all week - I guess supporting his brother who’s in court this week (it’s all in the news).

Did you know that Gino fakes up his Italian accent?

Sorry not making contestants feel uncomfortable, making staff feel uncomfortable as he has an old school way of being…or something.

@JaneJeffer I know, don’t think I’d want to get involved in any of that

Gino V road trip staff?

A couple of months. The brother told him he was gay a couple of years ago.

Is it still on? It’s got to be time for a change, surely.

When I was a student I was a lodger and the daughter of the family, who was a teenager, had some friends over. I was very surprised when Richard off This Morning turned up on the doorstep to pick one of them up!

I've always believed he puts it on. He's lived here for nearly 30 years and has the thickest Italian accent ever. You think he would have picked up a slight English twang by now.

Bet they wish they could go back to a time when line jumping at the her majesties funeral was the "worst" they had to deal with.....

Madness.

I posted this story a couple of weeks back on one of the rudest celeb threads about my friend who works in a hotel.

A mistake was made while checking Gino in and he was pissed off. He went from showing off with his fake accent to shouting at them in estuary English. The staff started laughing. He wasn’t happy.

Urgh his accent is so annoying. I dont know any Italians with such a strong accent living in England after a number of years. And the inability to realise an innuendo. He's like Harry Enfield as Stavros.

Alison had the story come out about someone trying to blackmail her and her paying them off and then reporting to police. Philip's brother has been accused of sexual abuse, think the court case is currently ongoing. Gino is said to be sleazy which is not so hard to believe.

Whoever hires the presenters for this morning has done a piss poor job.

Gino is a twat.

My phone tried to make that ginormous

Aldo Zilli is the same. The moment he's around anyone important/Italian/tv and he's all mamma Mia

Gino is a ginormous twat?

Well that yes!

It wanted to say ginormous is a twat lol.

Now that it has been pointed out, I can't unsee that a Venn Diagram of This Morning Presenter and Potential Sex Predator would work

I say "potential" because nothings proven about Phil but there was plenty on that score on here the other day

Yes he burgled the singer Paul Young's house before he 'became a chef'

What?! You can't just casually drop that into a conversation when a person can't sleep and is browsing on there in the hope of nodding off. Fred the Weatherman?! That's it. I'm done.
