ITV This Morning cancelled until Friday as Phillip and Holly make announcement

ITV's This Morning won't be on air until Friday, November 25 as the broadcaster makes way for World Cup coverage. The announcement was made by Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby at the end of the show on Monday, November 21.

Phil told viewers: "Right, the World Cup is on ITV for the next few mornings so Alison and Dermot will be with you on Friday, we will see you next week," before Holly added: "All that's left to say is good luck England, good luck Wales and we'll see you next week."

Wales will kickstart their World Cup campaign against USA today and England will also face off against Iran. Tipping Point, The Chase, Emmerdale and Coronation Street have all been removed from their usual slots to make way for the tournament.
