Phillip Schofield gone

Wouldn’t be surprised if ITV axe the This Morning show completely and replace it with something new, to distance themselves from the saga as much as they can.
Good opportunity to get rid of the awful, gobby Alison Hammond too (another ‘presenter’ promoted way beyond their ability - think Rylan, Andy Peters etc), though she’ll no doubt pop up in another equally vacuous ITV programme 
PHILLIP SCHOFIELD AND EAMONN HOLMES STATEMENTS IN FULL
Just before 10am on Monday, Phillip Schofield posts a statement on his Instagram stories.
"Now I no longer work on @thismorning I am free to say this. I hope you have noticed that it's the same handful of people with a grudge against me or the show who seem to have the loudest voice.
"This morning IS the best show to work on, with the best people. In all the years I worked there there was no toxicity. You can listen to those persistently loud voices if you like.
"But the thousands of guests over the years, thousands of staff and crew, hundreds of presenters and contributors all know, it IS a family of wonderful, talented, kind, hard working people."
At 11.10am Eamonn Holmes tweets a response.
"Schofield has just put out a delusional statement. Like Holly he puts it on Insta Stories so if it goes wrong there is no record after 24 hrs.
"I'm reluctant to give the liar any more publicity but believe me Pip if u r looking for a fight , u have picked on the wrong person !"

I think that This Morning may be finished and its best to kill it off and replace.
One thing that could be tried is a stint of new presenters being tried out.
People with a diiferent style not necessarily new to TV but new to that type of show.
Greg Wallace could be a good choice his jokey style could be a great hit with viewers.

Exactly the same format rehashed.? I can’t see the point of that, especially considering the potential costs.
And Greg Wallace is no longer presenting any tv so he can be ruled out, thank god.

Given he was Schofields successor in the broom cupboard I'm now wondering how he got his leg upanonymoususer said:

The money will decide the future of this show. The main sponsor has dropped it and other advertisers are avoiding the slots during this program. It's the sponsorship and advertisers that pay for the program and if you can't attract them then the show is a dead duck.
ITV have a nightmare on their hands and they may have no choice but to can this show. Perhaps it is time for a new format anyway.

What’s the story on Greg then?Exactly the same format rehashed.? I can’t see the point of that, especially considering the potential costs.

Not sure if it’s a permanent thing though.
