I’ve caught up on the pantomime episode today, and for me it was just what I needed to give me a feel good boost, all participated well and put on a brilliant show.
The changes to the set, graphics and especially the panto esque theme tune were brilliant!
You can't say that, don't you know This Morning is meant to be this hard hitting programme where fun and silliness is forbidden!?
Completely accept that it was fun, and certainly the creativity and willingness to do new things is to be admired.
That said, it was incredibly cringe and I found it a struggle to watch as a result! Mind you, I’m not the target audience. I think it was the atmosphere – jokes just hung there with little reaction, some of the delivery was way off, and the technical delays on the remote didn’t help!
It just went on too long, but also this year they weren't able to do the usual end of year gathering with the shows contributers which would normally take up the last half hour. Interesting though they took the programme strap away for most of the panto - that's usual unnecessarily ever present nowadays.
The theme variation was brilliant though, as is the Christmas theme. And the Genie Lamp area looked pretty decent in the panto too - arguably better than their main sofa area.
I can hear Alison Hammond saying '' we're on Fridays for now on guys how great is that''. Not Great for Eamonn and Ruth really but at least they'll be doing holidays

Weekends? Are they putting TM on 7 days a week? I presume you meant holidays?
