This Morning has been in the headlines recently due to the bombshell exit of host Phillip Schofield.
Phil, 61, resigned from ITV on Friday and was dropped by his talent agency YMU after admitting to an "unwise, but not illegal" affair with a young male colleague on This Morning. Meanwhile, the show's former resident doctor Dr Ranj Singh blasted the programme's "toxic" culture, saying he raised concerns about "bullying and discrimination" two years ago when he worked there and afterwards felt like he was "managed out" for whistleblowing.
There have been more statements after that, including one from Phil denying claims of toxicity and saying it is the best show to work on. Then stars of This Morning rallied to defend the show as it went on air on Monday.

Dermot O'Leary appeared to reference the allegations of toxicity behind the scenes, saying: "We all know we happen to be in the news at the moment and of course we appreciate that, but just from both of us, the whole team here, the crew, the guys downstairs, we love making this show for all of you."
Co-host Alison Hammond added: "We really do and that's exactly what we are going to do, we are going to continue to do that." Gyles Brandreth, who was in the studio to review the news stories of the day, said: "We are very happy to be here, can I say that as well?
"This is a happy place to work, I enjoy coming in here and have done since I began coming in. We are happy people in a happy place."
