Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield shrugged off the continuing furore over the alleged 'Queen queue jump' controversy on Thursday, September 22 as they got on with business as usual. The This Morning hosts were on the ITV sofa and chatting to guests about everything from the price of children's packed lunches and how much old technology in your home might be worth to GP surgery waiting times.
It comes a day after many viewers took to social media to voice their concerns over the wellbeing of the pair after a petition with thousands of names was launched calling for them to be sacked after reports that they went to see the Queen's coffin at Westminster Abbey without joining the thousands of people who had queued for hours to see the Queen lying in state, including fellow celebrities Susanna Reid and David Beckham.
While ITV issued a statement assuring This Morning viewers that Holly and Phil went along as "working journalists" and since Holly and Phil then spoke about the issue on their first This Morning show since the Queen's funeral on Tuesday, September 20 the matter has not died down.
