Gutted This Morning fans groan 'no thanks!' as Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard's replacements take over ITV show

Daily Mail​4 days ago
This Morning fans shared their frustration as Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard 's replacements were revealed on Monday's instalment of the ITV show.
Last Thursday Cat, 48, and Ben, 50, revealed that they would be off our screens for a number of weeks because of the summer holidays.
The latest episode of the programme welcomed none other than Alison Hammond, 50, and Dermot O'Leary, 52, to the sofa.
Dermot said: 'Welcome to Monday's This Morning. We're here for the week!'
'Yes we are!' Alison replied.
Some fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to instantly share their disappointment.
'For the week??? Noooooooo thanks !!! Byeeeeee #ThisMorning.'
'We're here for the week! .. #thismorning.'
'The entire week #thismorning.'
'Oh god and they're here for a week #thismorning.'
Meanwhile others shared their excitement when the two were revealed as one of the step-in hosts to take part in the show this summer.
The likes of Olivia Attwood, 34, Rochelle Humes, 36, Emma Willis, 49, Joel Dommett, 40, Andi Peters, 54, Craig Doyle, 54, Sian Welby, 38, Rylan Clark, 36, and Josie Gibson, 40, will also be hosting.
'Josie and Rylan and Alison my faves can't wait xx.'
'Absolutely bunch of legends.'
'Can't wait to see you.'
'Love it when you mix it up for the summer!'
'More Alison and Josie please.'
'Great line up of presenters.'
Alison and Dermot usually present Friday's slot of the show, while Cat and Ben present every Monday to Thursday.
The dynamic duo took over from Ruth Langsford, 65, and Eamonn Holmes, also 65, in 2020.
At the end of Thursday's episode last week, Cat said: 'Dermot and Sian will be here tomorrow.
'That's it from us. We'll be back here to do it all again with you in September... if you let us!'
Ben added: 'Don't worry though. We'll leave you in good hands.'
It comes after a This Morning star revealed that she is officially off the market as she showed off her stunning wedding ring during Friday's installment of the ITV show.
Poppy O'Toole, 32 - who regularly appears on the programme to demonstrate her cooking skills - was all smiles as she flashed her rock to viewers behind the hob.
Dermot said: 'From the dance floor, to the kitchen table, newly-married potato queen! Poppy O'Toole.'
The camera then panned in on the star waving her ring finger with a grin on her face.

Here We Go star Alison Steadman on heartbreaking reason she's quit theatre

Alison Steadman, star of BBC's Here We Go, has revealed she's quit theatre despite it once being her 'favourite thing' to do Actress Alison Steadman opened up about her decision to quit theatre during an appearance on ITV 's This Morning on Friday (25 July). ‌ The TV star sat down with Dermot O'Leary and Olivia Attwood to chat about her latest projects, including the third series of BBC 's Here We Go, but sadly revealed she won't be appearing on stage in the future. ‌ "This breaks my heart. You don't want to do theatre anymore," Dermot said to Alison, with co-host Olivia adding: "Stage fright?" ‌ Alison sadly revealed: "Yeah, really. I've put my shift in and it was my favourite thing. I absolutely loved it, but no more." Alison has starred in numerous theatre productions over the years, having kicked off her career in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie after finishing her studies. ‌ She has also appeared in Abigail's Party, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Entertaining Mr Sloane and Hotel Paradiso. Alison won an Olivier Award for The Rise and Fall of Little Voice. Elsewhere during the interview, Alison teased what's to come in the new series of Here We Go, which launches on BBC One on Friday (25 July). "We're so excited," she said, before revealing what her character Sue Jessop has been up to. "Well, she's moved in with them, it's what she's always wanted! She's living with them, she's rearranged the kitchen, as mother-in-laws do. She just loves it, she just loves being with all the family." ‌ Alison went on to discuss the unique way in which Here We Go is filmed. The series is filmed in one on-going take, meaning there is no opportunity for cuttings or edits. "It's filmed always in one long take, so there's no cuttings. It's quite tough sometimes. It's just quite tiring, sometimes the scenes can be four, five pages long," Alison told Dermot and Olivia. ‌ She admitted: "If you're filming it without a break, and you're doing take after take, sometimes you think 'Please let me rest!'" Alison stars alongside Jim Howick, Katherine Parkinson, Tom Basden, Tori Allen-Martin, Freya Parks, Mica Ricketts, and Jude Morgan-Collie in the hit BBC sitcom. The series, set in the town of Bedford, tells the unique story of the dysfunctional and eccentric Jessop family, from the perspective of teenager Sam (Jude Morgan-Collie), who films plenty of footage on his handheld camera. Flashbacks to less chaotic times also feature, giving the series a unique selling point.

Jay-Z teams up with Caesars and SL Green to bid for huge Times Square Casino project

MEGASTAR JAY-Z joined forces with some of the biggest names in the casino business, looking to pitch a Caesars Palace Times Square casino project in New York. The rapper - real name Shawn Carter - was among several attendees to sit in front of the Community Advisory Committee (CAC) and bid for one of three $500 million downstate licenses. 1 The Roc Nation co-founder was representing a partnership alongside Caesars Palace and SL Green Properties and pledged $250million in benefits to the community as part of their pitch to convert an existing office on Broadway. They face stiff competition though with EIGHT applications in total having been submitted to the New York State Gaming Commission. Jay-Z, who grew up in Brooklyn, says the location was "perfect" for the partnership group and says the introduction of a casino resort would only "fulfil and enhance" the area, which he likened to huge landmarks around the world. The 150,000-square-foot gambling hall would boast 1000 casino rooms, a Caesars Sportsbook, four restaurants associated with high-profile chefs and a spa. Concerns over the venue becoming the main attraction to Broadway have been rebuffed by the entrepreneur, who insists they would only act as an 'additive' to a tourist spot which entices over 50 million tourists per year. During the presentation, Jay-Z said: "It's our chance to change the narrative and create something all around the world. "If we treat Times Square with the love and the attention that it requires, it can fulfill its promise. 'This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I believe, to support something that's homegrown. 'As we hear a lot of talk about community, we are the community. We're from this community. 'We're not coming to compete with Broadway. We're coming to be additive. "Anything that we've done in the past, we've always included the community. We've never excluded the community.' The group's proposition also indicated a forecasted $7 billion in direct tax revenue and $26.7 billion in local economic activity in the first 10 years. Roc Nation also stated they'd supported more than five million people with social impacts worth more than $78 million. More than 3,000 construction jobs would be created as a result if they were awarded a license, and the 3,800 permanent jobs it would create would be 'mostly filled by New Yorkers'.
