This Morning

It's become a staple of peoples mornings in the UK. Everyone from bored housewives, to students, to the unemployed - they all spend a happy time of it of a weekday with Holly and Phil.

And why not? It's a light, mildly entertaining show, that covers the ridiculous to the series in large brush strokes.

If you don't like a segment, don't worry, after a short ad break or the ever annoying Andi Peters doing a competition there will be another story shortly to follow.

It wins awards too, so people are clearly behind this ever green programme.

This appalling program has just got worse and worse, they have a prime slot and an opportunity to inform and entertain, what do the viewers get? More and more tabloid bilge, time to re-think it?

'This Morning' used ( a very long time ago ) to be a great magazine show with a varied schedule of interesting subjects, from great true stories to health advice, money matters and current topics. All presenters fall short, very short, delivering a show that is quite boring, full of competitions, playground jokes and behaviour and makes it very easy to switch channels, the worst are the main hosts Phil & Holly, they seem to enjoy their little private jokes, and talk about the show as a family but leaving the viewer as an outsider and a stranger, living and presenting in their little TV bubble making sure everyone knows how great they are and the viewer should be honoured to watch and worship them .... No Thanks! Rather watch the other Channel !!

The large majority of what's shown on This Morning isn't worthy of being on national television. There's gossip and trivia.

Some of its presenters have been awful - such as Eamonn Holmes, who's bland and boring.

Occasionally they have interesting guests on.

Thank goodness that a man who has deceived so many people has finally had to admit his deceit. How has he been able to enjoy the financial benefits of his position, while being a liar. Him and other TV presenters, including Gary Lineker, seem to think they are Teflon. Hopefully at some point the general public will manage to bring them to a point where they are made to acknowledge their "normality" As an aside, when will the BBC be seen as an outdated monopoly?

Many other channels seem to survive by producing interesting viewing, so, why pay firstly to BBC and secondly for many individuals to make huge salaries?
