Holly Willoughby’s post-Schofield monologue on This Morning was quite the watch – 13 favourite responses
You’ll already know by now – of course you will! – that Phillip Schofield is no longer presenting ITV’s This Morning, and today it was the first appearance of his erstwhile colleague Holly Willoughby in the post-Schofield era.
And what she had to say was the source of no end of speculation except, surely, no-one speculated it would be quite so bizarre as this.

Having watched that there’s only one question – are you okay? Hope so.
And here are our favourite things people said about it.

When Holly Willoughby said "Firstly, are you OK?" I genuinely thought she was talking to someone behind camera, before realising that of course she was talking to us, the great British deeply-traumatised by everything's that happened on an ITV morning show public.

Everyone at This Morning needs to seriously get over themselves now. The country in general does. Anyone would think This Morning is our national religion or something. https://t.co/IeCkwL281E

I mean “Firstly, are you Ok?” is just totally bananas. All perspective has left the building. https://t.co/FvNl68ayw5

as the director of This Morning let me just tell you that I am NOT happy with this reading. after she said 'firstly, are you ok?' I specifically instructed Holly to sit silently nodding for 45 seconds so our audience could answer her through the telly https://t.co/PxQhfEiyzh

To conclude …
Is This Morning a cult?
