Who is going to watch This Morning tomorrow?

This Morning spin Drs are trying to save these two.

I think anyone could do their job and its time for them to leave and get new presenters.

Its awful what they did while old,young,disabled people waited 10hrs+ and elderly servicemen waited in line.

Don’t be mad at them be mad at the people who give out the jump the queue passes. Why don’t disabled and elderly get them aswell? If a pass was offered then it’s perfectly acceptable to take it in my eyes. I’m sure there were others who took a pass but haven’t been witch hunted for it.

It wasnt just any Queue though, it was The Queue.

I think its been building up with that heat or eat wheel spin.

How he got away from that incident is beyond me.

The victim was going to expose him but everyone thought it was alright that he came out. I find it awful.

Seen him a few times bully guests on This Morning with his questions.

There was a queue for people with disabilities and other mobility issues. People would get a wristband and a timed entry.

It was stunning and brave to come out as gay. The PR machine that convinced a newspaper that giving them an exclusive interview about coming out rather than running with an exposé on his (alleged) behaviour with a young lad saved his career.

It was a very long queue, without any toilets provided! We relied on local businesses to allow people to use the loo - one hotel, with one wheelchair accessible toilet, for hundreds of people using wheelchairs, for example.

We are also a nation who pride ourselves on queuing. Many see this as a cardinal sin.

There was but you still had to queue for 6 hours to get a timed slot entry wristband for 5 hours ahead. The queue was poorlyit's missed and only 3 disabled portaloos although they were all out of order. They also closed the accessible queue 15 hours before the main queue.

We did queue. Twice. Total time of 12hrs between getting in Queue 1 and exiting the Westminster Hall. The nearest Tube station to the accessible queue was not wheelchair accessible, and other such well thought out details.

The main queue was not "accessible" partly due to the need to step up and down kerbs and other obstacles. The "accessible" queue was fairly flat but some cobbled and other challenging terrain

The cancel council was cancelled out of respect for the queen, but I understand it's on the agenda for tomorrow's session.

Yes. My only gripe is they didn't both needs to go and to be honest I don't think there should have been press passes because you cannot report on anything that happens while you are in the hall. I guess the only thing they can do is report on what it was like in there for them.

"I don't see how folk can admire one person or family who live a life of privilege and then complain about someone else being privileged.

How privileged is it to have every second of your life scrutinised, Not have the same choices as everybody else simply because of the family you were born in to.

This is a hard one. In many ways, yes they can only be described as privileged. They have plenty of food, excellent housing and will never want for anything. But they don't seem to have much option to leave it all. The Duke of Sussex is an example. Seems once your accident of birth has you as one of the frontline Royals, you have to accept the downsides that come with it. Never having proper privacy and every single thing you say or do being scrutinised, photographed, immortalised for history etc doesn't seem very privileged to me.

Am I to assume this is the sequel to the previous eponymous thread from the other day?

I learnt a lot that day.

I've also learnt that Phil' is devoted to his duties in endless television advertisements for a gin club, selling cars, banking...

But if he's so well known why does he announce himself by name in every commercial?

But they don't choose it, it's foisted upon them simply by virtue of who their parents are. At least those who pursue fame in other ways (sport, music etc) are, in some ways, making a choice to enter the scrutiny of the public eye.

The two children at the funeral today, George and Charlotte, might appear privileged but they have zero choice in the matter. They will struggle to "leave" the Royal Family, and even if they do, they'll continue to be photographed and written about in the news, just because their parents are Prince William and Katherine.

I personally don't find that very privileged. I wouldn't want my entire life to be scrutinised by others like that.

Yes, they are. But they don't appear to have any choice in the matter. How do you 100% leave being royalty? Get rid of all the media and scrutiny and all the rest? I don't disagree that they're privileged but it's an accident of birth with no opt out. Which I personally find odd. If someone doesn't wish to be a prince or princess, they should be able to retire into obscurity and live an ordinary life. Some of the more minor royals can do that but the ones born into the frontline bit don't get that option.

I'm completely with you on that last bit - no-one should be above the law.

I just find it nuts that two small children today are being micro-examined by the media and will continue to be so examined for the rest of their lives, even if they try to leave the royal shizz behind. They didn't choose that. We've had people on here using really unpleasant and disparaging comments about the 4yo Prince Louis too. I can't think of many 4yo boys who might be game for public ridicule either.

I genuinely have no idea what Phillip Schofield is alleged to have done, other than be in the closet and then separate from his wife after coming out. However, I'm probably the least celebrity obsessed person in the world and don't follow any of that stuff online or elsewhere.

I also (personally) couldn't particularly give a fig that he managed to get into Westminster Hall (legitimately or not). I doubt two "celebs" caused any difference to the opportunities for the general public. It's irritating, yes. But hardly the crime of the century.

From what I have seen they appear in a very short video inside Westminster Hall and walking away from the VIP area.

If they had been stood there for some filming then surely that will be clear to see in tomorrows program. However as there was deathly silence in the Hall I cannot imagine that they were allowed to talk to camera, so it makes you wonder what was filmed; surely it can only be them looking at the coffin/hall/queue ?

Maybe the commentary will be added afterwards, I don’t know though, I’m certainly no expert.

So in that case all will become clear in the morning and I would be correct, what was filmed was them looking at the coffin/hall/queue.

Does make you wonder why they didn't go out the same way they came in though.

The big question is whether the British public will forgive Phil for queue jumping in the same way they forgave him being a cheater, groomer and beneficiary of a super injunction. We really do have a funny art of values at times.

There was absolutely no filming whatsoever with absolutely no exceptions. There will be no footage except that of the live feed of them in the hall. A journalist who had filed past said in a radio interview 2 days ago all people with press passes were told they weren't even allowed to report on anything that happened while they were in the hall other than their own feelings on the matter. That is one of the reasons there is very little information about the incident that happened on the Friday night Only that from members of the public that spoke to journalists outside.

Well... I don't personally know either so each to their own. But I did cringe watching Philips 'coming out interview'. Bearing in mind his 'wife' is expected to sit there happy and smiley, like a daft bat with their kids. I don't care what sex he's into. It just gets to me he's such a smug twat regardless of which way he goes

This Morning spin Drs are trying to save these two.

I think anyone could do their job and its time for them to leave and get new presenters.

Its awful what they did while old,young,disabled people waited 10hrs+ and elderly servicemen waited in line.

Don’t be mad at them be mad at the people who give out the jump the queue passes. Why don’t disabled and elderly get them aswell? If a pass was offered then it’s perfectly acceptable to take it in my eyes. I’m sure there were others who took a pass but haven’t been witch hunted for it.

There was a queue for people with disabilities and other mobility issues. People would get a wristband and a timed entry.

It was a very long queue, without any toilets provided! We relied on local businesses to allow people to use the loo - one hotel, with one wheelchair accessible toilet, for hundreds of people using wheelchairs, for example. "

Don't know ow what queue you were in but we queued for 2.5hrs, please ty of toilets available, including those in the tate Britain and had ple ty of seats around etc for those who had mobility issues. No problems at all.

Why are you so pressed about this lol they did nothing wrong. You have no idea what their work schedule is or what the planners on the show have asked of them.

There are so many other things to get so worked up about.

The accessible queue, on Saturday. It took 6hrs from joining to getting a wristband (to return 4hrs later). The only toilets provided for the queue were 3x portaloos, which were all out of order. It was impossible to get into the Tate Britain from the accessible queue until you got close to the building itself, which wasn't until several hours after starting to queue. The queue was all along the riverfront on Millbank and then around several side streets, before going around to the Tate. We used the toilet in the Westminster Hotel (1x wheelchair accessible loo). Others who did not have wheelchairs also used a pub some distance away.

Once you had a wristband, you could use the Tate rest area, which had loos etc yes, but it took 6hrs to queue to get one!

How can someone report on the feelings of seeing the longest reigning monarch lying in state without seeing the longest reigning monarch lying in state.

They kind of had to be there to express said feelings, no? Otherwise they'd be 'outed' as frauds or fakes who were simply saying stuff for 'clout'.

The wrist bands for press passes were not offered to anybody you had to apply for them as a friend of mine works for the bcc.

So the working explanation makes sense then

Yes. My only gripe is they didn't both needs to go and to be honest I don't think there should have been press passes because you cannot report on anything that happens while you are in the hall. I guess the only thing they can do is report on what it was like in there for them. "

Which for people who aren't in there... And are interested... Might be reporting.

I was in the accessible queue with my mum, there were some at the end after you got the wristbands so people were leaving and coming back to go. I don't think they were expecting it to be so busy, we were lucky that we went early on and it was very quick so the toilet situation was fine then, but I imagine when it got busy it wasnt great, particularly as negotiating round the last bit with a wheelchair wouldn't have been easy.

However, back to Phil and Holly, I don't really blame them. The TV producers asked them to go so it's not really their fault. Blame the show rather than the presenters for an error in judgment. Personally I think it would have made better reporting if they'd joined the queue and chatted to people along the way. They'd have got the real experience then

What I'm annoyed about is they claimed on this morning they didn't file past the Queen and we know they did because there is footage from the live feed of them doing so. I think the problem is they have changed their stories several times.

Am I to understand that some would like two people to lose their jobs based on rumour and the use of two legal press passes?

Since when did they start working for the press?

"Sorry but anyone who's stupid enough to queue for 12/24 hours to walk past a coffin just shows how easily led the population is yes she was the Queen but what did she or any royal, polititan, celebrity, footballist ect ever do for you directly to deserve such adoration?

I mainly went to see the immense architecture inside a building that was first built about 950yrs ago and which isn't usually open to the public. It's absolutely stunning

Is this really why you queued 12 hours without acceptable toilet facilities, as you posted?

Indeed it was, yes. There's nowt so queer as folk

Apparently they had to scour the country for the oak for the beams. They needed to be a particular shape "

Yes, I read the same. The carvings on the ends of the beams and trusses are amazing, as are the stone carvings. It's a shame we could only move around a small area and for a limited time. There's nothing else like it anywhere in the UK, and I'd suggest the world. It was the largest hall at the time of its building and apparently always constructed with a self supporting roof - no columns. It's revised our understanding of architectural design of that period.

Presenting a glorified agony aunt / cooking program isn’t journalism.

They exploited their perceived power and now they’re paying the price for it.
