This Morning viewers today have called out Phillip Schofield‘s “irritating” habit on the show.

Taking to Twitter, some fans were annoyed by Phillip eating a pick n mix sweet bag in the morning.

One person said: “The really irks me watching Phil eating those pick n mix every morning out the bag. Don’t know why tbh. #ThisMorning.”

A second wrote: “Me too!”

Another added: “Me too! Something intensely irritating. Even my hubby who rarely says anything about anyone gets cross!”

And last week, a fan also commented: “I hate it when Phil eats those stale pick n mix #ThisMorning.”

The presenter, who usually holds onto the pick n mix during the Spin to Win segment, addressed fans for complaining back in 2021.

Me too! Something intensely irritating.

At the time, Holly Willoughby said: “Have you not finished that bag yet?”

Phillip replied: “Well someone… because occasionally I look at the moaners on Twitter and someone said the other day, ‘Isn’t that unbelievable, a winner on the TV and he sticks his hand in their bag of sweets.’

“No, that’s not the way it works. This has been the same bag of sweets for a year which occasionally is topped up. Just once a day I get to eat…”

Following Phillip’s statement, fans responded to the host by saying they weren’t “moaners”.

One person said: “Occasionally he looks at the ‘moaners’ on here. We’re not moaners Phil. We’re constructive criticisers #ThisMorning.”
