Alison on This Morning

Anyone else love this woman?

Why why did they take her off- seeing her standing in for Phillip this morning is a reminder how amazing she is.

She cracks the best jokes and can also do sensitive too.

She's a million times better than the other woman (don't even know her name) and should have had the job permanent after Holly went.

She could run the show alone!

I find her very variable.
I used to like her short feature items and found her funny; but I don’t think she can carry the whole programme.
She had been very disrespectful to studio guests and phone-in guests and described the murder of Sarah Everard as ‘a bit of a sad story’.

The other one with the annoying voice is called Rochelle.

TooBigForMyBoots · 01/02/2022 10:54

Has Holly gone forever?

Glitterygreen · 01/02/2022 10:57

Yes I love her :) She's a ray of sunshine and really makes me laugh.

Marcipex · 01/02/2022 11:31

I really hope Holly hasn’t gone forever.

TheDoveFromAboveCooCoo · 01/02/2022 11:34

I used to like her but then she came out as an anti-vaxxer so my view has somewhat changed.

LeQuern · 01/02/2022 11:36

I really hope Holly has gone forever (but she hasn’t). Alison does Fridays (she’s great).

Marcipex · 01/02/2022 12:10

Rochelle is much better today. Less giggles and trying to lean on Phillip. Her natural self is much more likeable.

JustWonderingIfYou · 01/02/2022 12:24

Rochelle is bloody awful. Anyone is better than her. Fake as anything.

GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat · 01/02/2022 12:29

I love Vanessa Feltz, quick talking, bit naughty but has opinions and knows how to articulate them.

Marcipex · 01/02/2022 13:21

I take it back, the rude competitive talking over Gok’s cooking slot!!

SandysMam · 01/02/2022 13:26

I found the poverty phone in today in really bad taste. Let’s get a load of people struggling to phone in for advice from millionaires so they can be patronised. I think they realised this though by giving them the money at the end.

I like Alison on This Morning. When she first started on Fridays I think she took a while to switch to presenter mode instead of "funny clip" mode but she's come on well.
Rochelle, she seems lovely but she's not a good presenter, terrible interviewer.
Philip and Holly, can't stand these two, I wish they would both move on.
Josie recently presented a few shows when Holly was off and she was fabulous, she really stepped up. They should use her more.

ToffeeNotCoffee · 01/02/2022 13:33

Alison Hammond is fantastic.

BettyOBarley · 01/02/2022 13:34

Alison has got better since she started but it's all about her all the time isn't it.
Can't do with Holly, she's so smug haven't missed her at all.
Josie was brilliant they should use her more.

Newgirls · 01/02/2022 13:36

Alison is great. She should have had far more opportunities and sooner IMO. It’s like British tv have only just ‘got’ black presenters and should have appreciated her more years ago.

Not so keen on the anti vac thing though

Marcipex · 01/02/2022 13:40

Surely we all grew up with lovely Floella Benjamin?

Newgirls · 01/02/2022 13:55

Of course! Floella is amazing. But let’s not pretend there has been fair representation in the past 20-30 years.

itssquidstella · 01/02/2022 13:56

I can't stand Alison Hammond, she really grates on me.

MrsGHarrison87 · 01/02/2022 14:00

No she annoys me. To be fair I don't like anyone on that show, I find them smug and fake.

dottydodah · 01/02/2022 14:09

The whole show is in need of a makeover! Holly always seems a bit of an airhead ,Phil somewhat smug .Richard and Judy first and best I think .Always likes Eamonn and Ruth too. TBH rarely watch it as usually out with the dog!

Treesandsheepeverywhere · 01/02/2022 14:14

@TheDoveFromAboveCooCoo

I used to like her but then she came out as an anti-vaxxer so my view has somewhat changed.
I only remember her saying she was scared of the vaccine and eventually convinced it was safe. I like her as she has no agenda. Just funny and takes the job as it is. Rochelle seems to want to emulate Holly and doesny have much to say. Holly wants to play girl next door when she cpuld just be herself.
Aderyn21 · 01/02/2022 14:16

I love Alison too. She and Rylan should be the permanent presenters imo. Rochelle seems nice too, and Josie. Ruth seems like a lovely woman and very relatable. I liked Fern Britton too - she's a proper journalist, which I think we could do with because that programme has become so vacuous.

Basically though, I'd take anyone that isn't Phillip and Holly

Chipstick10 · 01/02/2022 14:50

@LeQuern

I really hope Holly has gone forever (but she hasn’t). Alison does Fridays (she’s great).
Anti vaxxer? This suggests to me she has not been vaccinated with any vaccine and hasn’t vaccinated her son against all childhood diseases. Or is it because she hasn’t taken the three vaccines offered for coronavirus?
TitsInAbsentia · 01/02/2022 15:00

I've never really been keen on Alison, but she was easy to bypass when she did just short segments on things. I haven't seen her on this morning as it's something I stopped watching ages ago (couldn't deal with all the fake sympathetic pillow faces when someone was on telling their story etc).

She absolutely ruined "I can see your voice" for me with her inane babble and talking about herself all the time.

I know we should be grateful that she's more diverse than your usual female tv presenter but even that doesn't make me like her.
