Alison Hammond, Dermot O'Leary and their This Morning colleagues have come under fire from scores of people in the theatre industry for 'condoning' and 'encouraging' disruptive behaviour from audiences. And their reaction complaints from disgruntled venues and fans came right before a performance of The Bodyguard had to be scrapped in Manchester due to people in the crowd singing and shouting over the cast.
As they were were joined by regular guests Vanessa Feltz and Nick Ferrari on the ITV daytime show, Alison and Dermot discussed reports of staff at the Palace Theatre, where The Bodyguard is playing, taking action against ticket holders who sing loudly from their seats; despite signs around the venue telling them not to.
As Dermot dismissed the complaints by laughing in his seat, Alison reacted: "I mean, I can't believe it. I'd be devastated; I'm not even going to go to that show now."
