This really. Haven't read anything first hand about him - just going by comments online

I’m sure he’ll be back and the brother’s conviction will be soon forgotten.

I don’t really get the loathing for him on here. I’m ambivalent, but think he’s a perfectly decent presenter of vacuous morning tv.

DarlingG · 10/04/2023 07:27

There another thread about this and the Joe Lycett thing has been mentioned on there too. Was it mentioned on his show the other night? I didn’t see it

I don’t like him. He is arrogant

And talentless.

YellowGreenBlue · 10/04/2023 07:29

If he keeps his job, ITV will be sending a really shocking message about child safeguarding. Have we learnt nothing from Saville?

I think they have already said he will be back after Easter. They apparently held Crisis Talks.

Schofield turns my stomach and Holly seems slimy and fake. I'd rather see Ruth and Eamon.
No weight gain because he's vain and fancies himself as a silver fox 💩
It bears no benefit for me the viewer whether my presenter is fat or thin I'd rather they are charismatic, entertaining and interesting. His weight benefits him only. If you mean that the presenter being attractive makes us more likely to watch and that fat is unattractive, then he isn't my idea of attractive. Never found him handsome.

Ruth and eammon will never come back to itv due to their thoughts on Phillip. They cannot stand Phillip and felt so un easy around him so much show they left the show because of him.

Agree with @CUaround

I like someone with personality - and often it is people like the weathermen/ women. Remember Ian McCaskill ?- he had a huge personality, as do Paul Mooney, Paul Hudson, Lucy Martin, Carol Malia etc I used to love Brian Turner from the original Ready, Steady Cook, too.

They don't act as though they are doing us a favour by being on our screens.

I really wish Schofield would go - even without all of this nastiness, he isn't a good presenter to my mind

I didn't know that. I have new respect for them.

PenelopeTitsDrop3121 · 10/04/2023 09:07

Bloody hope not. I have a feeling he'll take extended leave after feeling devastated about his brother 🥱🥱I hope Holly doesn't give the faux sympathy about how "brave and stunning" he is again. The Itv team really need to listen now. His name is dirt now. They need to get rid.

Yoyo2021 · 10/04/2023 09:09

Yes, but they have to be careful due to the fact phill has a super injunction out.

Hellenabe · 10/04/2023 05:32

@Exhibity I just think Joe wants to break the super injunction about PS and the young boy, but Joe's career would be finished

Ah , thank you, I love Joe Lycett 😊

I think you are spot on there

VanillaImpulse · 10/04/2023 10:04

Dr Ranj left too and isn't a fan of the Schofe. He mentioned in an interview about who he kept in touch with at This Morning and Holly and Phil were not mentioned!! There is a clip of him on the NTA's when they were all accepting an award for This Morning and Holly was saying how Phil had "a heart of gold". Ruth and Dr Ranj just exchanged "a look". I'll have to see if I can find the link but it says it all.

He’s a smug, toxic egomaniac but for some reason ITV are being held hostage by him.

I’ve said before, “I love that Philip Schofield he’s such a great presenter and a right good bloke” is a rarely heard remark.

Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert · 10/04/2023 10:34

Ruth & Eamon are very decent people I believe and Ruth tried to do the right thing and at the risk of her career. I don’t know whether they left or Philip Schofield engineered it so that they slowly got pushed out? They were on all the time during holidays etc, then suddenly they weren’t…so unfair, I imagine P.S’s influence.
Have to hope karma wins and then I’m sure it will all come out from so many people. I can imagine it must be hard if you’re worried about losing your whole career due to him and some strange power he has

Dr Ranj also tweeted after queuegate "Karma is a bitch...and I love her".

Enfys1982 · 10/04/2023 10:52

Rylan left because of Schofield as well. No one likes him other than Holly, and I’m not sure she’s all that much of a fan anymore either. They’re definitely not as close and she seems to have distanced herself. Bet she knows so much more than she lets on.

Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert · 10/04/2023 10:53

I think there are a lot of people not keen on him who’ve worked with him, plus all
the comments on articles for the Lakers and online are always that people want a new presenter…any other presenter would have been gone a long time ago, so it begs the question..why?
There should be an investigation into it all as something is obviously very strange.

As for Holly, I don’t know…is she scared for her career, does she class him as a genuine friend or does he have crap on her too that would ruin her?

There must be a lot of people waiting for his demise, what an awful situation, just toxic.

Butidontwanttogotoarobbieconcert · 10/04/2023 10:54

Rylan seems a decent type too

Boogismyname · 10/04/2023 11:13

I really hope the noncing cunt doesn't return. As has been said, he has been suspected of similar.

Gothambutnotahamster · 10/04/2023 13:02

I would love Ruth & Rylan to host it - think they're a great pairing.
