Lorraine viewers fume 'she's appalling at interviewing!' as Kelly 'keeps interrupting' guest in 'more irritating than normal' chat
Lorraine viewers shared their frustration as they watched presenter Lorraine Kelly interview Jordan Stephens on Thursday's instalment of the ITV show.
The 33 year old appeared on the programme to chat to the Scottish host about his new children's novel See For Yourself.
Jordan - who is one half of hip-hop duo Rizzle Kicks with Harley Alexander-Sule - released the book today (Thursday 22 May) after joining forces with illustrator Beth Suzanna.
But while some were watching the show at home, they took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to say the same thing - that Lorraine was interrupting her guest while he was speaking.
One brutally said: 'She's more irritating than normal today; interrupting etc #Lorraine.'
'This woman is just APPALLING at interviewing! How on earth do her colleagues refer to her as a 'national treasure' I will never know. #lorraine @lorraine.'

'Let him speak FFS!!!!'
During the chat Lorraine confessed that she loves his second book and asked: 'It's about the ocean specifically isn't it?'
Jordan explained: 'The idea came from, what we mentioned in the break, as a species I find we're fascinated with up and out.
'We've studied space, we have all these incredible discoveries outside of the earth. But appears as if we haven't been to the bottom of the ocean...'
Lorraine said: 'Not as much. There is vast areas of the ocean that we don't actually know that much about... Finding new species all the time.
Jordan replied: 'Right!'
Lorraine continued: 'So your wee hero, he goes?'
Jordan explains: 'Harry Arlo, it follows this boy who, he comes from a family of pilots, and he wants to be the first in his family to go down, rather than up, because he believes that is where the beauty lies.
'So he goes on a journey, on a mission.
'And also, this is just because I went snorkeling one time as well, a few year ago, and I could not believe what I was seeing under these. It blew my mind!
'There's probably thousands of kids books that explore the ocean because of how many incredible colours and shapes, the lower you go, the weirder it gets. I love it!'
The singer went on to explained: 'The Missing Piece, our first book, we chose Sunny to be a black girl, we weren't bothered about the gender to be honest.
'The story was the story, well make Sunny a girl.
'When we were speaking to the libraries we were working with, that there weren't books about boys, well certainly black boys. not that it matters.
'We're in the world of children, that's the beauty of being a kid. It doesn't matter.'
Conversation soon turned to his relationship with Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall, 32.
The pair have been going strength to strength since May 2020.
Lorraine said: 'It's a lovely relationship that you've got. And it just works, doesn't it?
You know each other so well. You're from the same sort of, music, because music is a crazy world, right?
Jordan said: 'Yes music is.'
Lorraine added: 'She's got you doing music again hasn't she?'
'Jade was a big part in encouraging us to do more Rizzle Kicks. She genuinely loves our music. It's really sweet,' Jordan said.
'She's got her Rizzle Kicks merch. Bought the vinyl. She's on the album too.'
Rizzle Kicks formed in 2008, but decided to go their separate ways in 2016.
The pair reunited in 2024.
Some of their best songs include Skip to the Good Bit, Mama Do The Hump, Lost Generation, When I Was A Youngster, Tell Her and Miss Cigarette.

Prince William and Princess Sophie wow crowds as they team up for rare Royal double act
PRINCE William and his aunt Sophie teamed up yesterday in a rare royal double act. They toasted each other with gin during a joint engagement at the Royal Cornwall Show — and she proved to be a tonic by helping out with the heir to the throne's duties. 4 4 4 The Duke of Cornwall and Duchess of Edinburgh were met with cheering crowds yesterday. When he was offered a Rattler cider, Wills, 42, quipped: 'Everyone remembers their first Rattler. You don't remember your last.' He pretended to turn his nose up at the zero per cent alcohol option he was initially offered and asked for the proper stuff. At a gin stand, Wills joked he could 'see what today's going to be like' and also teased Sophie. They had been taken into a food and drinks tent, where Sophie was also seen happily chatting to a mother and baby about local produce. They went first to a chutney stand and then to the gin stall as William said: 'We've come from the chutneys straight into booze.' They were shown several gins before each were given one to try. He caught the Duchess going for another sip and joked to her: 'She said, 'You're not allowed to finish it'. You've got to watch her.' Sophie, 60, responded: 'He's learnt from the best.' Wills joked back: 'I've been caught out with whisky a few too many times. "I think I can do that and then, 'Oh no I couldn't'.' The pair were also given a traditional Cornish pasty by Ann's Pasties. They then moved to the Healeys Cyder Farm stand, where William said: 'Look at the Rattler selection. Ah, definitely I'm happy about that.' Head of hospitality Laura Clerehugh, 36, said: 'I was going to say, you've had a Rattler.' William responded: 'Everyone remembers where they were when they had their first Rattler, I can tell you that.' He then laughingly agreed that you don't remember your last. Wills then asked about the 'zero' on the bottle, and when told that it meant zero alcohol he put the cup down and said: 'Oh no, no, no. I need original. Someone bring out the big guns.' Sources said the day was a huge success. Sophie has been touted as the Royal Family's 'secret weapon' thanks to her unwavering support for the monarchy and dedication to charities. She was ranked the fourth hardest working royal of last year, having carried out 257 engagements. Her welcome contribution comes at a difficult time for the Royal Family. They were rocked last year when the King and the Princess of Wales were diagnosed with cancer. Charles continues to receive treatment, while Kate announced earlier this year that she was in remission. The King had a blast yesterday as he fired an artillery piece on a visit to the Royal Regiment of Artillery at Larkhill, Wiltshire. 4

EuroMillions jackpot rolls over AGAIN as UK's biggest ever prize at £208m goes unclaimed
A EUROMILLIONS £208million jackpot - Britain's largest ever prize - has gone unclaimed. Lotto players were disappointed to discover no one bagged the eye-watering sum this evening. 2 The jackpot on Tuesday will be an estimated £208 million and would be the largest prize the UK has seen. Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: "Tuesday sees the £208 million EuroMillions jackpot still up for grabs. "A win of this magnitude would create the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen - making a single UK winner instantly richer than the likes of Dua Lipa and Harry Kane while also landing them at the number one spot on the National Lottery's biggest wins list. "The EuroMillions jackpot is now capped, so any money that would have gone into increasing the jackpot now boosts prizes in the next winning prize tier, meaning that we could see multiple UK players banking huge prizes for matching just the five main numbers and one Lucky Star." The main EuroMillions winning numbers were 20, 21, 29, 30, 35 and the Lucky Stars were 02, 12. One UK ticket-holder became a millionaire after matching five main numbers and one Lucky Star, winning £2.02 million. No players won the £500,000 Thunderball jackpot by matching the five Thunderball numbers, 03, 14, 31, 32, 34, and the Thunderball number 06. Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn said yesterday: "We are now on the verge of potentially creating the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen - making a single UK winner instantly richer than the likes of Adele and Dua Lipa while also landing them at the number one spot on The National Lottery's biggest wins list." An anonymous UK ticket holder won the existing record jackpot of £195 million on July 19 2022. Just two months earlier, Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, bagged £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket for the draw on May 10. The UK's third biggest win came after an anonymous ticket-holder scooped the £177 million jackpot on November 26 last year. It came after 11 millionaires were made on the National Lottery draw in just one week in 2024. One lucky Brit won a cool £33million with their Euromillions ticket. Another ticket, which was snagged in the UK, matched all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars. It came just weeks after two players from the same county scooped £1m each. EuroMillions jackpot winner Frances Connolly reveals surprising first item she bought with £114m jackpot This year, the largest win was seen in January with £83million. A previous EuroMillions lottery winner, who scooped an eye-watering £107million jackpot, has revealed why he went public with the news. Neil Trotter bagged the whopping prize money and was faced with a huge decision whether or not to remain anonymous. The 45-year-old chose to splash the cash and filled his driveway with a Jaguar and a Porsche - before upgrading their parking spaces to a luxury mansion. But, Neil explained it can be tricky to go public because of pressure to provide people with money. However, he was overjoyed to buy his sister a house, and help out family and friends privately. He told the BBC: "It was quite tricky but I don't really see that there's any option [other] than to go public. "If you want to live the dream - which is have the house, the money and spend it, you've got to go public. "People have said in the past they would hide the money, I think £170million is going to be impossible to hide. "This is the lake that I bought and the big house and I'm living my dream." But he did previously admit he has been hounded by people making up claims to snap up his cash. He said: "I have had loads of people contact me on Facebook, I've probably got about four million kids in this country. "Everyone wants a bit of money." Elsewhere, a lucky couple thought they'd only bagged £2.60 on the lottery - but soon discovered they had scooped the £61million jackpot. Richard and Debbie Nuttall, both 54, from Colne, Lancashire, took home the life-changing sum in the EuroMillions draw. The couple were enjoying a holiday in Fuerteventura, celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary, when they discovered the big win. Richard revealed they originally thought they had won £2.60, but then received another email telling the pair to check their account. 'I thought it was odd and there must be a glitch in the system to get a duplicate email but I logged in again to my National Lottery account to check," he explained. "We were totally stunned, it said we had won over £61million," said the winner.

‘Crass' cops slammed for playing ‘snog, marry, kill' with mugshots of local call girls and felons
LAYING 'snog, marry, avoid' with colleagues at work could be sexual harassment, a tribunal has ruled. The 'crass' and 'inappropriate' game may breach the Equality Act, an Employment judge said. The risqué quiz involves naming three people and then asking a person to pick which one you would like to kiss, which one you would get married to and which one you would steer clear of altogether. In the BBC hit comedy Gavin and Stacey, Pam, Mick, Gavin and Smithy played a version of it featuring celebrities during a car ride from Essex to Wales. However, the tribunal found it may break workplace laws. The ruling came in the case of a police officer who sued Derbyshire Police after a female colleague involved him in the game — using mugshots of sex workers. The officer candidly admitted to the tribunal that she had 'jokingly' played the game with co-workers and included PC Shafarat Mohammed in their discussion. PC Mohammed claimed that during the discussion in May or June 2022 he was only shown images of black women and was asked what he liked about one of them. He said he was 'embarrassed' and 'offended' by the questioning and felt it was inappropriate. The tribunal judge said: 'We agree that the questions were inappropriate.' However, the tribunal found there was no racial or religious element to it as the sex workers were of varying ethnicities. PC Mohammed lost his case for racial and religious discrimination and harassment. Two top cops accused of mocking a colleague's Irish accent in 'grossly offensive' leaving video 1
