It’s a nice tweak, but the animations are a little harsh compared to the previous.

It was nice to see the re use of the England flag background (as used during the World Cup) to celebrate St. George’s Day.

I'm surprised we didn't see similar flags for St Davids Day however.

Phillip had to cut the Loose Women off during the teaser a few minutes ago.

They were tight for time.

Has this ever happened before?

If they were that short on time why didn’t they just say “Here’s the competition”, the VT talks over the prizes anyway. By the sounds of it they had a performance that must run to a specific time, unlike an interview.

Anything that cuts Loose Women off is only to be celebrated.

It made the papers by the way

Or should I say

SHOCK as Phil CUTS OFF Ruth LIVE on air.

I assume TM didn’t know how much longer the Loose Women promo was going to run for, and Phil had someone shouting in his ear. It took as long to apologise and cut Ruth off as it would have done to let her finish, but they obviously didn’t know that. It does look a bit messy and unprofessional the way it was done - and as others have said, Phil could have shortened his own own throw to the competition feature if they had to hit that, or something else, bang on time.

If TM were really pushed for time the smartest thing they could have done is scrap the Loose Women preview rather than rush through it.
