A number of This Morning fans hit out after a video that "glamorised child cruelty" was aired live on Tuesday's show.
Josie Gibson and Craig Doyle were back at the helm of the daytime programme, as they're currently be filling in for Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield this week. Regular hosts Holly and Phil are currently taking an extended Christmas break.
The new partnership comes after Dermot O'Leary and Alison Hammond, who usually front the show on Fridays, hosted This Morning for the duration of last week.
