This Morning viewers pleaded for the ITV show to be ‘moved indoors’ today as the daytime series’ VE Day celebrations were hit by bad weather.
With guests looking windswept as they huddled up in big coats and under rugs, X users took to social media to express their concern.
Hosts Rylan Clark and Emma Willis faced challenging conditions as they popped open their brollies to keep the drizzle off during some segments. And as guests shared their VE Day recollections with the likes of Gyles Brandreth, there were several urgent calls online for the broadcast to be shifted into a studio to keep everyone warm amid “freezing” temperatures.
This Morning VE Day show on ITV today
As well as airing memories of those who experienced VE Day ahead of the 80th anniversary on Thursday (May 8), Monday’s programme also included sing-alongs with group D Day Juniors.
The outside broadcast also saw John Torode prepare corn beef hash and Corrie legend Bill Roache appear for a chat.
But with rain pouring down and a blowy breeze clearly impacting the episode, fans pondered whether a big change should be made.
How ITV This Morning viewers reacted
During the show’s opening few moments, branches could be seen swaying in the wind, and grey skies did not really suggest weather for a street party.
However, as the show progressed, viewers believed the wind was starting to pick up.
“The wind seems to be going up a gear since the start of the show #thismorning,” one person wrote on X, adding a grimacing emoji to their words.
