Im sure I read that he was building his own living quarters as an extention to their present home... I mean its not like his kids are young but I guess they are both happy with the arrangements. I dont know if thats true but maybe thats what he is referring to....living seperatley lives on the same premises for the sake of their children :shrug:
It wouldnt be my preferred scenario thats for sure..:laugh:....at least bugger off around the corner and let me move on with my life.:laugh:

Exactly..but shes not stupid...I love Alison but I just dont think its the right move. I just cant see her discussing serious issues...however I wish her the best. Its a great promotion for her.

Eamonn Holmes was accused of being opposed to LGBT parenting when he told two gay interviewees in a 2000 GMTV episode that "You are not meant to have children. You are going against nature!"

Whilst presenting This Morning in October 2011, Holmes described singer Jonathan Wilkes as "retarded" on air. He later apologised after complaints and calls for him to be sacked.

In October 2011, Holmes provoked criticism by suggesting that a rape victim should take taxis in future, leading to accusations of victim blaming.[39]

On 12 May 2016, Eamonn Holmes provoked criticism by comparing an attack by West Ham fans to the Hillsborough disaster.



There are an endless array of controversies surrounding him ..

2011, 2013, 2016, yet it took until 2020 to move him on, maybe you can explain the 4 year delay :) and he will be presenting 4 days a week for six weeks, that really sounds like they want rid

How fast did the act on Jeremy Kyle, off air straight off...if they wanted him gone he would be

Ruth and Eamonn are great presenters. Professional and funny. Love them.

Dermot O'Dreary, Allison Hammond and Rylan Clark are TV presenters from Hell. Never liked Hammond in Big Bother. Used to like Dermot but he's become very boring. Rylan and Allison, both talentless jumped up ex Big Brother contestants. They're just big mouth show offs. Nothing else.

[Ruth Langsford was unaware
she and Eamonn Holmes
were being 'dropped from This Morning' to make
way for first black presenter and
brushed off axe claims only last week
The married presenters will now reportedly
take over from Holly and Phil during their
six-week summer break

Broadcasters Ruth and Eamonn, both 60, will now be
replaced by the show's first black host,
Alison Hammond, and X Factor's Dermot O'Leary
Alison and Dermot are said to have 'real warmth'
and as such are seen as perfect
replacements for Ruth and Eamonn
on the coveted Friday slot
A source claimed: 'Eamonn is pretty furious
and everyone feels for him and Ruth,
they are well liked on the team,
but sometimes tough decisions
have to be made'
Eamonn and Ruth have presented
every Friday on the show since 2006]



So they are back next Summer Holiday.

What Phil did to his wife was horrendous. She spent her youth and middle age years with someone who could never fully love her, and had no idea about it. He has being lieing to his wife for decades. Poor woman.

that is what makes it worse


To be fair it pales in comparison to some other selfish/cowardly acts down the years ..


Apparently there were two incredibly high profile female tv stars who put their careers before innocent kids by turning a blind eye to SaVILE’s horrendous activities. ... . allegedly..

The show already has two gay presenters in Rylan and Phil so this is a bit puzzling? You must mean getting rid of older people to bring in younger people right? Or would you care to explain what you mean by this and the 'woke' comment earlier.? :thumbs:

Rylan hasn’t been a this morning regular for years now, I think he only does the very occasional holiday shift

Rylan is more or less a BBC employee these days. Didnt Rylan once present the show with Dan Neal, his partner? I'm certain he has. It seems some types of diversity are Ok but others not so much.

Looks like Lt's not gonna reply to my last post so I'll post again.

It seems like its personal and you just dont like her LT. So the question is how is that being 'woke'?

Simple question. Please answer it. :thumbs:

Sack someone for ruining a woman's life and basically committing fraud and likely putting her health at risk. Seems reasonable my love!

Is that what you think I'm about on here? Baiting? I'd like I think I was definitely NOT about that. Maybe I need to reassess my approach. I'm disappointed that you think so little of me - and that is genuine. Your first post, to me, seemed like you were asking a genuine question so I'm saddened that our discussion has come to this.

Have a good evening and I'll pick this up and have a genuine discussion with you whenever you are ready. :thumbs:
