This Morning viewers today (July 25) were delighted by the presenting duo replacing Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary on the ITV series.
Alison and Dermot signed off for the summer last week after two weeks on the sofa. They themselves have been filling in for regular hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.
But while viewers had mixed reactions to Alison and Dermot’s final appearance together, Josie Gibson and Craig Doyle were welcomed.
This Morning today: Josie and Craig take over
Viewers commenting on social media were quick to hail how Josie and Craig work with one another.
One fan gushed: “#ThisMorning Josie and Craig are a great presenting combo so natural, upbeat and down to earth. Love them!”

‘Keep Josie and Craig’
Others also quickly decided they would like to see more of the pairing in future.
“#ThisMorning @thismorning Josie and Craig every day please,” implored one person.
“They are a breath of fresh air. What a difference!”
Hope we see more of these two in future!
A second happy viewer added: “What a great pairing Josie and Craig are on #ThisMorning. It’s really enjoyable watching presenters with real chemistry and not talking over each other. Hope we see more of these two in future!”
And a third suggested they might even find themselves contenders for the jobs full-time.
“Craig and Josie are so natural and relatable, so much better than Phil & Holly,” they claimed.
“Time for a presenter shake up permanently? @ITV #ThisMorning.”
Who else will present This Morning in summer 2022?
While some fans might like to see more of Josie and Craig, other relief presenters are scheduled in.
Also appearing while Phillip and Holly are away will be the partnership of Rochelle Humes and Andi Peters.
