I wonder if the show being in quite a precarious position ratings rise at the moment has lead them to pick the safest duo possible. Now that they’re struggling without Kyle, they can’t really afford to risk losing any more viewers with random combos like Lisa Snowdon and Nigel Havers. Ben Shephard is an ITV Daytime favourite, and Rochelle seems to be popular with viewers, so they’re probably best placed to hold the fort.
Saw a bit this morning and as inoffensive as you expect - a pair of safe pair of hands who aren't going to upset viewers or upstage the more senior presenters. Get the impression they're there for the summer - Rochelle said see you next week at the end and Ben signed off from talking to one of the guests saying they'd be back in a couple of weeks.

Both he and Rochelle are filming Ninja Warrior at the end of the summer too.
I think they've just gone with arguably their first choice third choice presenters.
Suspect Rylan will crop up at some point as well as Ben is likely to have time off from GMB and hence This Morning over the summer I'd have thought.

Today's show had a full 10 second countdown clock into the opening titles.

That might be because it originated from one of the transmission centres, and the other wasn't affected.

Not quite, they are using an edited version that has removed any references to Phil and Holly leaving the small Eamonn and Ruth clips in.
Are they using the titles introduced for This Morning on Sunday for over the summer?

The Lambie Nairn this morning titles were more flexible because they could just change the picture of who was presenting.
Now they have to chop the titles up and cut Holly and Phil out (and even zoom into a taxi window at one point) which looks really awful. This is what happens when you don't keep it simple.

They only ever had two sets of titles - the Phil/Holly and Eamonn/Ruth set and later on a Phil/Amanda and possibly Phil/Christine set. Any other duos they just took the picture out.
