This Morning fans blast Josie Gibson for 'tuning out and staring into space' live on show - accusing her of 'playing Candy Crush' when she thinks the cameras are off

As someone who has been struggling to save money for years, I must say that this “money-saving” segment from ITV’s This Morning left me feeling a bit underwhelmed and patronized. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate any advice on how to save more, but it seemed like the suggestions were too basic and not really applicable to everyone’s situation.


Viewers of the morning show “This Morning” have criticized host Josie Gibson for appearing to gaze off into nothingness and seeming disengaged during the news segment, with some humorously suggesting she might be playing a game like Candy Crush on her tablet.

Today’s episode of ITV’s morning program saw the 39-year-old host appear unusually quiet on several occasions, causing some viewers to express concern and ask if she might be unwell.

Every morning, they review the most popular news topics of the day and share their thoughts about current events.

Today on the show, Rylan Clark (aged 35) and Josie were accompanied by Nick Ferrari (65 years old) and Sonia Sodha (43 years old). However, viewers commented that Josie seemed to participate less in the ongoing discussion.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I found myself perplexed by a conspicuous absence of voices. In jest, I turned to the platform once known as Twitter, expressing my bewilderment and poking fun at the situation with these words:

‘Josie’s totally checked out #ThisMorning’

‘Josie only pipes up when out of all the news it’s the #SpiceGirls #ThisMorning.’

“Josie suppressing a yawn during her conversation with Ferrari, and she appears quite disheartened, looking downcast. It seems like she’s not feeling particularly joyful this morning.”

It seems quite unusual that Josie keeps on gazing at Nick and Sonia as Rylan talks. Could it be that she has feelings for one of them? #ThisMorning

‘Josie doesn’t really speak does she? Just sits there nodding her head #ThisMorning’

‘Josie playing Candy Crush on the iPad #ThisMorning.’

“Is Josie alright? She appears lost in thought whenever she believes the cameras aren’t recording, and she’s been unusually silent. I hope everything is fine with her #ThisMorning.”

In another part of the broadcast, I noticed that some ITV viewers expressed their disapproval on social media about today’s fashion segment. They deemed the outfits as rather unattractive or, to put it more bluntly, downright hideous. However, remember that fashion is subjective and what one person finds distasteful might be another person’s style statement. Always strive to embrace your unique sense of style!

Every day’s episode features models showcasing different fashion pieces from popular streetside stores, which audiences can easily purchase.

However, today fans of the show were left disappointed by the ‘unflattering’ clothing on display.

They took to social media to complain, quipping:

As a seasoned lifestyle expert with years of experience under my belt, I find that staying ahead of fashion trends is essential for maintaining a polished and contemporary appearance. This morning, instead of merely sending a runner to Westfield during an ad break to purchase the latest styles, I’d like to offer a more personalized approach.

As a fashion enthusiast with years of attending fashion shows under my belt, I can confidently say that jumper appeared as if its wearer had just grabbed it off a hanger and dashed out onto the catwalk in a rush this morning. The casual, carefree vibe seemed authentic, making it stand out amidst the perfectly polished ensembles parading down the runway. It was a refreshing sight that reminded me of the joy of dressing for oneself rather than the expectations of others.

Why is there a red sweater laid on top of a leopard-print dress this morning? It seems quite incongruous. #thismorning

‘That outfit is just plain awful #ThisMorning’

‘I never thought their fashion segments would get any worse, today is an exception #ThisMorning’

‘Maybe next time, don’t wear your PJs when hosting a fashion segment #ThisMorning’

‘Has this fashion woman just got out of bed? #thismorning’

After the controversial money-saving segment on the show provoked widespread anger for being perceived as patronizing and ineffective, followed by accusations that millionaire presenters were lecturing their viewers, harsh social media remarks ensued.

During their broadcast on Monday, the hosts Rylan and Josie had guest Alice Beer, aged 59, who provided tips for achieving a savings goal of £1,500 within a year.

The advice she offered, that didn’t seem appealing to the audience, encompassed ideas such as purchasing groceries from less expensive markets and accumulating spare change in a container.

As someone who has struggled with finances in the past, I can personally vouch for the ‘Penny A Day’ project as a simple yet effective way to save money. Starting with just a penny each day and gradually increasing it by one cent may seem insignificant, but trust me, over time it adds up significantly. By following this advice, I managed to set aside more than £600 in a year without feeling the pinch, which made a noticeable difference in my financial situation. I encourage anyone who is finding it hard to save to give this project a try – you won’t regret it!

The editor for consumer recommendations additionally proposed reducing spending on takeout coffees, as well as sharing subscription-based services like memberships and streaming platforms with friends and relatives.
