Currently watching TM on ITV Hub for the first time in a while. The thing that sticks out straight away is that R&J easily just slipped into the format again as if they'd be gone for a week rather than 18 years.
Their delivery is natural and doesn't rely on exaggerated giggles. At least for one day, TM has its mojo back.

Well, without Richard and Judy it wouldn't have lasted very long. They really were the fabric of the show.
Today just proves that the show hasn't been the same since in terms of its original charm.
It's exactly the same as someone singing a cover version of a song. It never quite hits the spot in the same way the original does because the song means something different to the original person who wrote and sang it.
I sort of feel that the presenters that come in do their own cover version. Some do an almost good job and some are just out of time with the tune.
Do think a daily comp where people can win a few thousand is better than a comp across all daytime shows for a month or so where a six figure sum is up for grabs.

To be fair, the show has had to evolve due to the changing demographics of daytime. Holly coming in did bring in a younger audience.

If I recall, the R&J era of TM market led and was the heyday of ITV's daytime output. In 2019, Phil and Holly are beaten by a mix of antiques and homes programming on BBC1 where the original TM audience have ended up.

I've not howled at the TV so much in ages, the first caller did not deserve to be on air not knowing Albert Dock, Dr Chris etc

The BBC Daytime lineup skews very old whereas ITV is aiming for the younger demo
that would have just perfected what was a decent line up.
