Alison Hammond sat on the couch, her face a mixture of surprise and uncertainty as a new presenter joined her on This Morning. With the departure of Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, fans had been eagerly speculating about who would take over the popular ITV show. In the meantime, a few temporary hosts had filled in, but it was recently announced that Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley would be the official new faces of the show.
During a segment on the show, Alison and her co-host Dermot O'Leary were interviewing Edward Oldfield, also known as "Britain's unluckiest gameshow contestant." As Edward shared his story of being on numerous game shows without winning any money, he pulled out a photo frame displaying a picture of himself with Ben. Alison and Dermot looked puzzled, and Edward explained that he wanted to leave the photo for Ben, who he had met several times before. He even promised to get a photo with both Alison and Dermot as well.
As the interview continued, Edward revealed that he worked in a coffee shop and didn't have a traditional career. Lorraine Kelly recently commented on Phillip's exit from the show, saying that he was a "delight" to work with and a generous person. She also expressed her sadness over the situation and the impact it may have on Phillip's career.
