To think it’s getting uncomfortable to watch now

[Whyisegerythingseeminglygettingworse]

This morning?

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

I suspect when one goes they will both will have to go. Looks like Holly was complicit supporting Phillip and if it's true he's rude and arrogant behind the scenes (amongst other things)then she's enabled it. Enablers are not always well liked in the workplace. Cutting the chain and starting afresh mght be her best bet.

Phils brother has recently been jailed for kiddy fiddling… he’s apparently announced he’s disowned his brother but who knows?…
Maybe Holly is upset about something to do with that? Perhaps Who knows though, could be anything.
Shame because they always got on so well, I don’t actually watch this sort of program but I’ve seen ‘the best’ clips and always seems like they were giggling and having fun together

I'm sorry, but the forced eye contact is really annoying.

was just thinking the same re the eye contact,
Holly looks to be having trouble keeping a pretence up

And Phil, please stopping gazing 'adoringly' at Holly every time she's talking. It's so so awkward and false

*stop

He turns his whole face to her and almost forces her to look at him, it’s odd.
He also seems really pissed off about her royal thing today as he’s not included in those things anymore.

I imagine it's an ingrained habit. Most presenting duos do it.

@pecantoucan He didn’t to
this extent before

Ah probably overcompensating. Cringefest

It's definitely much more than usual. It comes across as desperate and needy.

I don't like to just jump on the bandwagon to be be nasty and I have no idea if certain accusations are true, but my goodness the wheels are coming off and the fact that they just keep going like nothing has happened is utterly ridiculous.

Why on earth aren’t ITV putting a stop to this charade?

I love the irony of them trying to appear like champions of the poor then endlessly ripping off poor people with their continuous competitions generating 100's of millions for ITV.

I rarely watch it but I honestly can't see any issues jumping out at me they seem the same as they've ever been. That said - we know there are issues so it's disingenuous of itv to carry this charade on. I think they both need to go. I think two completely fresh faces on this show would breathe new life into it.

I took a look and saw him really turning his head to the left to look at her - or to get eye contact when she talks.

Exactly.
I haven't watched Schofield since he was in the broom cupboard. He makes me squirm.
The BBC broom cupboard anyway has horrible associations for me since I learned what happened to a young teenage girl on a prize visit to the BBC when a very famous Presenter (not PS) said she could have a Blue Peter badge if she went into the cupboard with him.

He's always come across as creepy AF

Also we know he's up himself and rude to people he works with

Something seems odd about his friend, Simon Schofield too…the pictures of him sat with the runner when he was young make me feel really uncomfortable

This ⬆️

Was it a presenter of a children's progamme with first initial P and surname initial P?

With the amount of streaming services and channels available who on earth watches daytime telly?

With the amount of websites available, who on earth posts on Mumsnet?

I can’t afford streaming services and have lowest broadband

His intense staring at Holly is so intimidating.

Brother is sentenced at 9.30 tomorrow. Hope the book is thrown at him 🤢😡
