Should Holly go too?

67 replies

Worldhasgonenuts · 20/05/2023 21:23

After all the recent controversy (and everything that has happened since 3 years ago) should she go too?

Holly who??

Sissynova · 20/05/2023 21:24

Why?

marshmallowmatcha · 20/05/2023 21:25

I expect her bosses and HR will handle it if there's an issue

Partytastic · 20/05/2023 21:26

Other than jumping the queue at the Queen’s funeral, what has she done wrong?

MrsJellycat · 20/05/2023 21:26

I don't think she should. I don't like her or Philip Schofield but I don't see why either of them were getting pressured to quit. If people don't like them, then don't watch the show!

And as for the 'coffin queue jumping' I really can't get worked up about that.

headstone · 20/05/2023 21:26

They came as a pair imo. I would have more respect for her if she resigned too, they were meant to be buddies.

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 20/05/2023 21:27

No.

You think it’s acceptable that he knew hid brother was sexually abusing a child and he did nothing to stop it?

Would you resign if your mate at work was let go? Doubt it.

silverspoonsz · 20/05/2023 21:33

Holly will never go. She'd rather sit on a spike than leave that sofa. And she hasn't done anything particularly controversial bar queue gate last year, so there's no real reason to sack her.

But what about her knowing all about the runner etc, the fake coming out story etc 🤷🏻‍♀️
How can it be ok to stay?

All that aside, can’t we have the lines of Rylan, Ruth etc back? So much more enjoyable to watch or if not, someone else

They didn't "come as a pair." Phillip Schofield presented This Morning long before Holly. Just because they happen to present one programme together doesn't make them a duo! They've presented other stuff separately. They're not Ant and Dec!

I don't see why Holly should go?

Sissynova · 20/05/2023 21:37

It’s only on mumsnet that there’s this bizarre hatred of Holly W.
Is it jealousy? I don’t get it??
If the show didn’t pull in the viewings then I’m sure itv would not be slow to cut her loose, but it obviously does.

Show quote history

Well, to be fair, OP never specified...

LondonLovie · 20/05/2023 21:38

Depends on the answers to three questions is the story of the runner true, if so, was he groomed (under age), and if so, did H know too.

Until the super injection is finished we probably won't know the answers to the first two Q's. May never know answer to the third

@Sissynova I have no hatred of her. Tbh though it’s not just on here..,Twitter, Tattle, Instagram etc, there’s always lots of comments

I think it's really important we don't blame a woman for a man's inappropriate decisions.

There is no actual evidence that she knew anything about PS's brother, or any inappropriate relationship of his own either. Whilst they were friends it is possible she didn't know - or at least didn't know for sure. . Do you really know everything about your friend's life? I am sure I don't - I know I don't infact, having only found things out later down the line and being surprised or shocked.

headstone · 20/05/2023 21:41

Sissynova if I didn’t need the money I would.

Is there actual real evidence that she definitely knew everything?
Not rumour from random social media and website tittle tattle, but actual evidence.

AssertiveGertrude · 20/05/2023 21:42

I don’t particularly like them as a pair on the show as I find them a little arrogant

much prefer Alison (love her!) Vernon and Craig are great and dermot is the best but not quite right for a daytime chat show (I think he is really talented though)

However Holly is lovely and has a lot to give. I do think she got where she is via her husband but at the same time she’s proved herself. People can be too hard on others. Everyone needs to watch their mental health

AssertiveGertrude · 20/05/2023 21:43

Josie and Alison / Vernon or Craig would make for a great show

anythingbutlillies · 20/05/2023 21:44

Not Ruth. Please God, not Ruth.
I'd rather Gaby Logan do it rather than Ruth. And I fucking LOATHE Gaby Logan.

DiscoBeat · 20/05/2023 21:44
  • CharlottenBurger Holly who??

How cool are you eh 😏*

I didn't know either until I read through.
