This Morning has received a number of Ofcom complaints after its hosts had a chat about how singing at a theatre which turned into a mini riot. During an epsiode of the daytime show, Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary discussed the 'no singing' rules in place during showings of The Bodyguard.
Staff members held signs stating "PLEASE REFRAIN FROM SINGING ALONG" at the opening night of The Bodyguard last week after previous performances on this tour involved audiences trying to "out-sing" the cast. A discussion during the show's daily 'This Morning's View segment', saw the hosts and two guests discuss the latest news headlines and other topics reports Manchester Evening News.
It involved Alison, Dermot, Vanessa Feltz and Nick Ferrari speaking about whether audience members should be allowed to sing along while professional actors are performing on stage, but the chat was widely slammed on social media. Alison said: " Staff are taking this very, very seriously and inflicting these rules and they are regularly walking up the aisles before the performance and during the intervals with no singing signs."
