This morning?

Off work today and watching and it just seems tense and awkward and not right between Holly & Philip Schofield

So don't watch it?

Yes pip is very smug and there's no banter of fits of laughter between them like there used to. Hopefully he's gone by the summer.

But it's like a car crash,you can't help but watch 😮

It’s alway’s been rubbish 🤷‍♀️

Crap tv, is what it is.

Time both of them got the boot, they are tedious in the extreme.

Spidey66 · 10/05/2023 10:21

Can’t say I’ve noticed.

Oh hang on, maybe it’s because I don’t watch it?!?

Its 2023 . There are loads of options to watch. Plus every TV comes with an off switch…..you can turn it off!

Last time I saw it Richard and Judy were presenting 😂 I can't believe schofield still has his job to be honest.

Whyisegerythingseeminglygettingworse · 10/05/2023 10:50

I can’t believe it either

I agree, something has shifted and she seems awkward with him.

I'm stuck on the sofa with a broken arm and even I am not watching that rubbish!

I know somebody who presented This Morning with Phillip. Apparently he’s extremely unpleasant behind the scenes and he wouldn’t engage with said friend because he didn’t deem her to be important enough. He wouldn’t talk to her at all off-screen. I can imagine he’d be very hard to deal with if an argument occurred.

YellowAndGreenToBeSeen · 10/05/2023 10:57

I think she’s said she’s leaving at the end of this series (when H&P stop for summer) and it’s obviously given ITV an ‘out’ on him too (contract allowing). He probably feels insecure / she’s disloyal (after all, he lobbied for to have the job over Davina), whilst she wants to distance herself to salvage her career.

I wish people would make threads like this obvious that it's about Phil and Holly.

Me too! Click bait titles shouldn’t be allowed unless there’s real tea being spilled.

This was nearly as deflating as clicking on the recent thread about the “Duke of Edinburgh cheating” which was really about some kids doing the bloody award and cheating! 😂 But l’m glad he hasn’t really cheated. I like him and Sophie.

Whyisegerythingseeminglygettingworse · 10/05/2023 11:07

@YellowAndGreenToBeSeen She’s said she’s leaving?

She’s definitely acting differently towards him, sometimes when he speaks, it seems like she’s almost gritting her teeth. She just looks pissed off/irritated

Have the bullies had a falling out?

Whyisegerythingseeminglygettingworse · 10/05/2023 11:07

@Mumtum3 😂

Sorry, this one wasn’t meant to be click bait!

@firsttimemumggg Seems so 🤷🏻‍♀️

I wrote ‘I think…’

Just my guess!

CornishGem1975 · 10/05/2023 11:16

Holly seems a lot more subdued and guarded these days.

PenelopeTitsDrop3121 · 10/05/2023 11:28

They used to holiday together in Portugal with their families and nothing for a couple of years now.

My friend's brother works in television. He said the worst people to work with are Pip and Frank Skinner. Awful bullies apparently :(

All is forgiven OP. 😁 My mum is fascinated by the (not so) hidden lives of TV personalities. And the lives and scandals of characters in soaps too actually…… 😂

Whyisegerythingseeminglygettingworse · 10/05/2023 12:13

She looks like she’s trying to tolerate him
