This Morning

I don't like Ruth Langford with her new hairstyle, dark does not suit her at all imo.

So true it makes her appear very washed out what was she thinking?

Holly Willoughby was presented with a British Sausage Week 2009 'Banger Award' on This Morning today.

The Xtra Factor host received the sausage-shaped gong for her services to the meat product.

Willoughby, who claimed that the title was her "finest hour", told viewers: "Amazing! Bangers and mash for tea I think!"

Writing on Twitter about the incident, her co-host Phillip Schofield said: "Wait 'til you see Holly's award. I'm very jealous. Holly is really rubbing my nose in this award, which is not a pretty sight."

Her services to the sausage ??

I dont get why she got it?

DANCING On Ice finalist Chloe Madeley may join This Morning - the show which shot her parents Richard and Judy to fame.

Chloe, 23 - who was the first to leave last night's finale after losing the public vote - is in talks with ITV1 bosses about becoming a showbiz reporter.

She has become firm friends with Dancing On Ice presenters Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, who also host This Morning.

And she's even impressed the morning show's fashion expert Jason Gardiner, the "nasty" ice judge.

A source said: "Everyone is impressed by her natural easy manner and likeability.

"Her parents might be two big names but Chloe is incredibly humble, which has endeared her to a lot of important people at ITV."

Chloe has shaken off her "wild child" tag, gained after a drink-drive car crash rap and being pictured smoking a bong pipe in 2009.
She had a taste of presenting when she got a showbiz slot on digital flop Richard & Judy's New Position.

She also guest presented Big Brother's Big Mouth and Live From Studio Five.

Richard and Judy fronted the ITV show from 1988 to 2001. A source said: "They are incredibly supportive of Chloe's career and would be proud to see her on their old show. They could become the first TV presenting dynasty."

With pregnant Holly, 30, about to go on maternity leave, any role for Chloe could develop quickly.

The source said: "It's early days but you could see a third Madeley on the sofa."

Holly Willoughby has given birth to a baby girl named Belle Baldwin.

The ITV presenter, who went into labour on Tuesday, confirmed on Twitter that she has had her daughter.

She tweeted: "Thank you for all your support these last few days. Belle Baldwin finally arrived at 5.10pm today weighing 5lbs 2oz. She's amazing. X"

Willoughby's This Morning co-star Phillip Schofield confirmed earlier today that she was still in labour, tweeting: "Just spoke to @hollywills who says thanks so much for all your good wishes.

"Here's the current situation, obviously if the baby arrived over the last few days it would be quite early, so the team around her are balancing when is the best time for her to be born."

Willoughby, who knew the child's gender in advance, was named ''Celebrity Mum Of The Year' in 2010.

The Dancing on Ice host and her husband Dan Baldwin also have 1-year-old son Harry.

Dannii Minogue is reportedly in talks to join This Morning.

ITV bosses apparently want to sign the singer up to host a fashion slot on the daytime show, following her exit from The X Factor last month.

If she agrees, she will also become a regular stand-in presenter whenever Holly Willoughby is away, the Sunday Mirror claims.

"We have had a conversation with *Dannii," a source said. "We really have high hopes it's going to happen. She's got a lot of *presenting *experience and is considered a style icon, so she'll be brilliant for a *fashion segment.

"Dannii has had no shortage of offers since leaving The X Factor but this really appeals to her as she's a great fan of the show."

Producers are hoping Minogue's "*engaging style" will help draw younger *viewers. She already has a *clothing range called Project D.

The Australia's Got Talent judge was recently tipped to join The Voice.

as the feud continues, philip has quit, holly alone or new Co host now?

[Perdita]

Poor guy was hounded out of the job by media .. because none of those that accused him of being a paedophile and covering for his brother know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth....

[lizann]

if im honest think both phil and holly became too big, arrogant and rude so a reset for the show without both of them could be good, vernon or craig maybe with josie or alison

I agree 100%. There are dozens of people who could replace them at a fraction of the cost. Just so long as its not the talentless Rylan
