I watch This Morning on Fridays when the presenters are Dermot O’Leary and Alison Hammond neither of which take themselves seriously.

Easy viewing whist GS asleep on my lap.

I cannot abide Loose Women, Lorraine or Jeremy Vine.

I had a dental appointment this morning. Dentist was running late but the waiting room has a TV. You’ve guessed it - This Morning - and no escape! Awful programme, awful presenters.

The woman on This Morning is Rochelle Humes, formerly of The Saturdays girl band. Holly is off filming yet another programme. Yes I'm sad enough to know that! I'm not sure why she gets so many jobs.
I think Loose Women is awful.

Good idea Allsorts to go for a walk. I find morning tv, to put it crudely, utter crap ! I can’t stand Philip Schofield, so if he ever comes up on screen, especially in ads, I turn off the sound. I’m getting just like my mother with all my likes and dislikes.

I usually listen to Today on Radio 4, however that Royalty hating presenter, Amol someone, makes me turn down the sound.

Now to prove I am not entirely an old curmudgeon, I do like Woman’s Hour with the excellent presenter Emma Barnett who poses a question and listens to the answer and does not keep interrupting ?

Thought I would switch on to watch Loose Women, but I never watch it through. I caught the last bit of This Morning which I avoid due to Holly and Phil, there was no Holly, come back all is forgiven, there was a presenter, who laughs uncontrollably and never stops talking, most annoying woman. Exhausting.
Then Loose Women and a discussion about Harry and Megan, a panellist incandescent at what Jane was saying about you can’t just hire police security however much you pay. She was champing at the bit, to disagree, she thought they should have preferential treatment. Why! it was clear she thought the pair had been wronged. I gave up, went a long walk instead.
