Phillip Schofield in This Morning 'clash' over John Lewis advert after 'frosty' reaction

Phillip Schofield clashed with Vanessa Feltz on Thursday's This Morning, after the host gave a rather 'frosty' reaction to the new John Lewis advert.

Every year, John Lewis is the one Christmas advert everyone waits for. And, after the likes of The Snowman, The Bear and the Hare and The Man on the Moon have tugged on heartstrings over the years, this year's John Lewis advert, The Beginner, made its debut on Thursday morning, turning the spotlight on a dad trying to master skateboarding, as he and his wife get ready to welcome a foster child into their life.

The advert, which stars Geordie actress Vicky Elliott, quickly got a lot of people talking online and, after it became a big talking point on Good Morning Britain, This Morning also devoted some time to it at the start of Thursday's episode. But, it would be fair to say that Phillip wasn't exactly full of festive cheer after seeing it.
