Phillip Schofield has spoken out on the 'queuegate' scandal that surrounded him and This Morning co-host Holly Willoughby - two months on from issuing their explanation on the ITV daytime show.
Back in September, the presenting duo were accused of jumping the public queue to see the Queen lying in state. Phillip and Holly were seen on Friday, September 16 inside Westminster Hall where Queen Elizabeth II's coffin was placed for four days before her state funeral, with hundreds of thousands of people queuing for miles across London in order to pay their final respects to the late monarch.
This Morning quickly hit back at the claims that their presenters skipped the queue, which at its peak reached a 14-hour wait for those wanting to pay their final respects to Queen Elizabeth II following her death on September 8, aged 96. But this didn't stop This Morning viewers from signing a petition in their thousands to see Holly and Phillip removed from the programme.
