I am really PIG SICK of hearing about Phil Schofield/Holly Willoughby. My BBC app is even sending me newsflash updates about the whole pathetic saga. I am emigrating to somewhere they dont talk about This Morning. |  |

BREAKING: HOLLY WILLOUGHBY HAS RETURNED TO THIS MORNING
This is literally breaking headline news. The most ridiculous news alerts since Vardy and Rooney went one on one in the rich and bored attention seeking championship. |  |

Phil or Holly? |
Either, not fussy. But I expect some Willoughby action if I have to do Phil. | |

You have to question the media's motives for keeping this going.
Are they going to keep milking this until Schofield is found unresponsive in a bathtub. |  | | |

It's pretty relentless isnt it. Similar to the Caroline Flack thing. Who would want to be a celeb! | |

The BBC does itself no favors by covering this irrelevant fluff. Should be nothing more than a 1-line footnote in an entertainment round-up. |  |

I'm still trying to figure out what he did wrong. Is it lying? |  |

I haven't watched This Morning since I was a student and it was Richard and Judy and the noncey weatherman.
I broke my arm on Friday and it was on the big screen in the fracture clinic waiting room so I was basically forced to watch it for a couple of hours. What a load of shYte, you'd have to be brain dead to sit through that every morning. |  |

Personally I think it's all a bit strange and I can't see what he has done wrong.
I think though that some people believe the young chap was groomed at an early age.
I also suspect some in the organisation think that Phil knew more than he chose to let on about his brother.
It all seems a bit weird, maybe there is more to it all but for me (not that I lay in bed thinking about it) he hasn't really done anything wrong. Legally anyway. [Post edited 5 Jun 2023 15:02]

I mentioned on an earlier thread that I sensed a bit of homophobia in the coverage, and got some stick for doing so, but I am glad to see that I am not the only one.

Certainly the first thread on TWTD on the matter contained a lot of homophobic banter which just doesn't seem appropriate in this day and age.
Interestingly, Schofield also got a lot of stick for lying but surely all affairs involve lying, and maybe it was even more difficult for him, given he was not known (especially by his family) to be gay?

He's been tried by Twitter and as usual, Twitter only knows one verdict.
There are some names on Twitter who people have decided are guilty and say everything will come out about them when they die. I won't name names but my point is that there is a very low bar for proof on there.
Many of them would happily have wrongly convicted Nicola Bulley's husband. | |

We certainly have become a very judgmental society, often based on only part of the story.
Whatever happened to "live and let live"? [Post edited 5 Jun 2023 16:03]

One of those chicken and egg situations.
It seems to be regularly the top story in the "Most Read" section so people are obviously interested, but could just be interested because the media are pushing it so heavily.
I'm with most on here that I couldn't really care about This Morning but I feel I'm not really their target audience. |  |

It's the cavalcade of plums who are getting stuck into him that says a lot, Eamonn Holmes the world's bitterest man, Kerry Katona, Carol McGiffin, Dan Wooton.
Holmes doesn't seem far away from living in his car and taking pills for his nerves |  | | |

Agree. The show is Blue Peter for adults. All parties need to get a grip of themselves.
No one cares.
The law is designed to differentiate right from wrong. He's done nothing illegal, so again, get a grip. [Post edited 5 Jun 2023 21:09]

Don’t worry. Prince Needy is in court today which should be enough to push the vacuous efforts of three PR teams protecting their ‘brand’ off the front page. |  |

So he's had a gay fling with a 20 year old man who he knew from when he was a boy?
Playing Devil's Advocate here, if he'd been 20, knew the boy and then 10 years later they had a fling (so 30 and 20), would such a big deal have been made about it?
This could very easily turn into a Caroline Flack scenario with trial by Twitter without people knowing the full story. |  | | |
