This Morning

I was talking specifically the closer, I expected it to be more built up.

I think "To Be Continued" was more than appropriate.

Anyhow, here's the start of the show:

Thing is, it's all very interesting for those of us interested in telly but I do wonder what the average viewer makes of it all. Mrs Sands (who is my representative of an average viewer) commented how self indulgent the end of This Morning was and then when Loose Women started she said 'oh they going on about it too?'

It's not as if the programmes are ending or will even look that different on Monday

Yea there's a lot of "they're not talking about it AGAIN!?" on the Loose Women hashtag, but television always over indulges itself on these occasions. It's just one of those things. I like it anyway, a real end of term feeling on all the shows.

Wow a clip with John Leslie

Why wow? He was never convicted of anything and isn't "banned" from television.

Here's Eamonn's walk around from today.

Is it me, or does it seem more of a family when Eamonn and Ruth are at the helm? They all seem to get on well, and there's a spark between the team which isn't always present with Holly and Phil hosting.

I know it's unfortunate timing but you would really expect Holly & Phil to be there today, and yet they weren't really missed, which is strange considering its their show. And it was even more unfortunate that they weren't there for the day Denise passed away, but it somehow felt more worthy to have Eamonn and Ruth host.

Maybe the Northern Irish in Eamonn brings out a more family feel than Holly and Phil?

Eamonn and Ruth come across as so much more down to earth and, ironically, far more comfortable than whenever I see the other two. I can't stand Schofield and Holly presenting this, indulgement isn't the word. Which is sad because I've heard they are nice off screen, Holly especially.

Did they mean to spell Rylan's name wrong in the titles?

That's his segment, Ry-land
