ITV This Morning viewers switch off over Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield's 'non apology' for queue jump

This Morning viewers have been flocking to social media to share their reaction to Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield giving an explanation for being in Westminster Hall last week. The duo were last seen hosting the show last Thursday with Friday's show cancelled to make way for coverage of King Charles' visit to Wales.

Holly and Phillip had been hosting special episodes of This Morning following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, paying tribute by sharing viewers' memories and chatting to those who knew or had met the late monarch.
