Where did they go? Loose women

[Saysitmildbutissooooospicy]

The Loose women?

Not been on for ages and not on until April.
I know they have horse racing on some days, but it hasn’t been every day at all.

Has something happened?

Josie Gibson was on This Morning recently as a guest. She has lipodema (sp?) and because it isn’t treated here she has to pay for surgery in Germany. Presumably she has earned a bit of cash in the last few years so she is willing to pay. She has big legs, she says, out of proportion to her upper half, and she will never be able to lose it or train it away. It has got worse and spreading to her arms. I understand that some people who have it much worse can be in pain or have mobility issues.

To finish…be in pain or have mobility issues.

I prefer it like this. I can’t stand Lorraine or LW.
Wish they’d stop with all the fucking quiz shows though.

People voluntarily switch on the tv to Lorraine? 😂
Shes always been unbearable. Loose women was alright for the first year or so but not since then.
This morning and The One show are dreadful too. I’d honestly rather watch paint dry!

Can only watch 10 mins of This Morning. LW is watched on catch up with my finger on fast forward. Lorraine - just can’t watch that at all. Her contract is not being renewed so expect her to pop up all over the place. Don’t get her appeal at all. Or Cat Deeley. Phil and Holly were unwatchable too.

I can't stand the lorraine show but ive always liked loose women, not that I watch it much these days as im mostly not home at the time its on. It'll be a shame to see it go if it does.
I've not been a fan of this morning since Richard & Judy left!

So what's on itv instead of these things?

The News is on at 12.30 instead of 1.30 or sometimes racing. And repeats of Celebrity Catchphrase.

When you look at viewing figures for these shows you wonder why they bother.

It's dreadful rubbish

Janet Street Porter and Coleen Nolan, why does anyone want to listen to those two?
I think most teenagers can discuss a subject with a more educated and balanced view than the Loose Women.

Lorraine’s voice is like nails down a blackboard for me. And I say that as a fellow Scot!

It's toxicity and misogyny from women - absolutely dreadful.

it is nice for the elderly and immobile

I think that's rather lumping the elderly and immobile together as being brain dead tbh which isnt the case. They probably watch it because there's very little on at that time of the day that's any better.

i am not calling them brain dead!
but some probably like the company
and not many 90 year olds want to watch Frasier, or whatever else is on in daytime TV

Lorraine needs to be binned off, only to resurface during Christmas panto season (if at all)!

So it's not like they've replaced it with anything better so I don't get it
And the lack of guests and audience won't have improved it will it
So why have they done it

Itv have some really good programmes on in general so why would it be in financial trouble

Maybe people are aware they can create a MN thread instead of Googling. What's wrong with preferring human conversations to AI?

Is that you Kaye Adams🤣

I think during the fall out from Philip Scofield it was revealed that ITV referred to their This Morning viewers as Tower block Traceys.

Dont know and dont care. Sooner the programme is scrapped the better. In this age of women equality there should have been a male equivalent programme broadcast years ago. But that said the format is well past its sell by date

Yes, I'm finding this comment (and a similar one on the previous page) a bit rude.

This Morning can't be just aimed at the 'immobile' and the 'very elderly' as some of the features on it, are about fancy cooking. Ya know, when they get 15 different ingredients that cost about £87, to make a meal for 4 that takes 3 hours to make. What elderly or immobile person is going to be doing any of this? Or going on the huge fancy holidays they have competitions for? Or going out to buy the many horrific 'fashions' they have on there.

As I said, I hope them ditching Loose Women for virtually half the year, and Lorraine altogether (probably) hasn't resulted in them constantly showing FOUR hours of Good Morning Britain, and then two and a half hours of 'This Morning,' a half hour news, and then five hours of quiz shows! All crap ones too. I have always liked The Chase, but haven't been a fan of that for a while, as it's a bit boring now, clearly fixed, and just tired.

I do work 2 days one week, 3 the next, 2 the next, 3 the next etc, but if I didn't, none of this shit ITV's daytime TV would keep me watching. (Or any of the other channels really......) I'd find a bunch of new hobbies. (I already have 3 hobbies!)

Why is her contract not being renewed?

How so?!

Exactly-it’s all a bit odd
