A third tweeted: “Loved the presenting duo of Josie & Vernon, I’d offer them a permanent spot if I was you before they go elsewhere #ThisMorning.”

A fourth fumed: “Oh no! It’s Rochelle! Nothing against her as a person but she is atrocious at presenting and do not get why she gets so many jobs.

“However, I do quite like Vernon as a host #ThisMorning.”
