ITV bosses have hit back at claims the channel does not have a duty of care for its talent.
Chief executive Dame Carolyn McCall and managing director Kevin Lygo faced questions from MPs on Wednesday about former This Morning host Phillip Schofield's exit from the programme during a Culture, Media and Sport Committee session. ITV was criticised by Caroline Flack's mum when Mr Schofield quit ITV's flagship daytime programme after he admitted having an affair with a colleague.
Christine Flack said ITV had "learned nothing" from her daughter's death and that on-screen talent were treated as "commodities". Dame Carolyn was questioned on the allegations during today's parliamentary session.
