Coleen Nolan's final show tomorrow, 28th July. Wonder who will be on with her?


Andrea, Carol and Lynda. It would have been better if they brought Jane back for another one off episode to well and truly say goodbye to the 'classic' panel.


Kate, Denise and Sherrie, according to the ITV Website. I wonder if Andrea, Carol and Lynda were all off sick?

It was a good send off for Coleen and she even gave the two fingers to ITV about Kate leaving!

Aye, Pete. Just watched in on Youtube. It was quite a touching send off. I actually felt quite sorry for Kate today. Coleen did indeed pay her a nice tribute, and the comment about "thanks for doing my last show" was also a bit of an indirect dig at the other anchor lady, perhaps?

Didn't realize that Coleen had such a good voice singing solo. Enjoyed that too. In some ways, it was a nicer send off than Jane's last year.

Personally, I can't stand Loose Women - due to the presenters. It is an excellent fomat and one that does great in America. However, they need a huge revamp. I'm glad that a set change, titles and music change is confirmed, I just hope they come out trumps with the presenters. Getting rid of Coleen is a step in the right direction, now Carol needs to go. Her departure can't come soon enough in my opinion!!

I think the show worked better originally with Kaye Adams at the helm. It wasn't afraid to discuss big stories, and actually discussed news rather than what the show has become known for - the panel's party & sex lives.

Kate's appointment & style on the programme in my opinion tried to take it back to this, discussing more news & Kate offering a great opinion. Obviously it's not what they want, and would just prefer someone to read autocue, thus they've got rid of her.

They did discuss party & sex lives whilst Kay was there, just not as often as now. I've always felt Kaye is overrated and Jackie Brambles made the best anchor and the loss of herself, along with Jane and now Coleen has lead to the downfall of the show. As well as Carol, they were the big panelists and anyone else was just a stand in. But rather than establish new main panelists they've just continued to use the same pool of stand ins.

The look and feel of the show is very dated too, the titles have been the same for years but just with a new colour, whilst that set has been repainted a couple of times so on that front September can't come quick enough. That alone will make it feel much fresher.

It usually ends around 1.23pm too. The news starts early and ends late meaning the 2pm show doesn't usually start until around 2.05pm, so I imagine its to do with keeping the scheduling as close to the actual times as possible.

According to yesterday's Daily Mirror, Sally Lyndsay is join Loose Women when it returns in Sep-- she confirms it in an interview with the paper.

I agree about Jackie Brambles too. I feel she was great at discussing serious topics, always strived for balance (playing Devil's advocate if necessary) and was clearly an intelligent woman. She also had an engaging personally-- I always found Kay Adams a little bit pious for my liking. I wonder what's happen to Jackie since leaving LW?
