This Morning Fan favourites left out of new promo pics
News: ITV has released brand new promotional photos for This Morning, but they only feature three of the programmes presenters, leaving fan favourites out in the cold.
The new images, released today, see Holly Willoughby take centre stage alongside presenters Dermot O’Leary and Alison Hammond. But there’s no sign of fan favourites Josie Gibson, Rochelle Humes or Craig Doyle. Also missing is Steve Jones and Andi Peters, who presented the show in the Summer, and long-time host Ruth Langsford.
COBRA is back for a third season this October
The new images position Holly, Alison and Dermot as the core presenting team, following the messy departure of Philip Schofield earlier this year.
A statement to go with the new images also fails to mention any of the other presenters, reading “They’re back. Holly, Alison and Dermot will be gracing your screens weekdays at 10am on ITV1, ITVX & STV”.
Angry viewers took to social media to share their upset at the new pecking order.
Comments posted today inlcude:
“That’s a pity preferred it over the summer time to switch off again!!! Andy and Rochelle much better”
“I much prefer the constant changing presenters like Craig, Josie, Andy & Rochelle. It made the programme fresh & more lively for a morning magazine show”.
“Oh no not Alison and Dermot again, bring back Josie, Craig , Rochelle and Andy”.
Viewers also got #thismorning trending on socials, sharing their contempt for the opening of today’s show. It saw Alison and Holly dancing whilst the cast of Mamma Mia! The Party sang and dance around them. One viewer summed it up, posting “the worst opening, ever!”.
This Morning continues weekdays from 10am on ITV and ITVX.
