…By Alan Peterson for TDPel Media. Following Phillip Schofield’s departure from This Morning and Holly Willoughby’s current leave, viewers of the show took to social media to express their desire for the current pairing of Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary to become permanent.

However, today Craig Doyle stepped in as a presenter, and many viewers felt that he brought a great dynamic to the partnership.

Phil’s decision to leave the show was motivated by the fact that This Morning had become the center of attention recently, and he wanted to protect the show by stepping down immediately.
