This Morning viewers furious at dangerous guest for dishing out heatwave advice

This Morning viewers were not impressed with the show today as one particular guest gave out advice for the upcoming heatwave.

Dermot O'Leary and Alison Hammond, who are standing in for Phil and Holly over the summer were joined in the ITV studio by Gyles Brandreth and Camilla Tominey to talk about the latest news headlines.

A hot topic of the day was of course the UK's current heatwave which Alison described as "unbelievable".

Alison went on to say that the UK is hotter than the Sahara Desert, Kingston Jamaica and Malaga today, and she asked: "I wanna know do you think the infrastructure is actually in place for us here?"

Camilla replied: "Probably not. There was somebody from the railways on the radio this morning saying the railways are only really prepared for 35 degrees, so anything above... and this morning we've all had travel chaos.

"And then you think, 'come on, it's just a bit weather'. I mean if you're in somewhere like Abu Dhabi or Dubai, it's like this for weeks and weeks and weeks throughout the summer.

"Having said that, they're all kitted out. I think our problem at home is that we don't have air con, we're not prepared for this. But with temperatures rising, maybe we're gonna have to recalibrate because maybe we're gonna get more long, hot summers the way this is going," she continued.

Dermot, 49, then joked: "I'm amazed that we talk about the weather like it's not gonna change in two days!"

Camilla added: "But also we don't need these sorts of warnings when we go on our holidays do we? If you go on holiday, to say Dubai, be sensible, take some water, wear a hat, well we know this stuff!"

Some This Morning viewers were not impressed with Camilla's comments and took to Twitter to have their say.

One wrote: "@thismorning Please tell this woman to learn advice before preaching it. It's not all about the temperature, it's the whole picture, the humidity too. This is what makes it so dangerous #ThisMorning."

Another tweeted: "#ThisMorning imagine taking advice from Camila Tominey."

A third person posted: "@thismorning please stop inviting Camila to tlk about the news, she's not only under qualified, she's also giving dangerous advice. Please listen to experts! #ThisMorning."

And a fourth person added: "Getting health advice for this weather from Camilla Tominey … #ThisMorning," alongside a gif which read: "I don't think so."

Someone else fumed: "Please @ITV please @thismorning get @CamillaTominey off our screens. The BS and privileged sh*te that spews out is utter cr*p. #thismorning."
