Was difficult not to feel some sympathy for him, he came across well and showed true stoicism in exceptional circumstances. Ratings through the roof too which show he may have been cancelled but he's still relevant.
Good point. But on the other hand, he really has earned it.

The only Good Morning Britain that I ever see is when I wake up, get out of bed, pull back the curtains, look out of the window and say “F*** off”. So there.
That’s a bit harsh about Crodo

Please don’t watch this, please boycott it - if you have to watch it wait a few months and then watch it on catch up - by then the viewing figures will be in and he will slink away to his very young ( unwise but not illegal) partner.
Yes. I always found him a warm and engaging presenter, and as a young girl my daughter loved him. Ok, like a lot of famous people it turns out he was a complete arsehole in real life, and he does now appear to have gone completely 'Prince Andrew', but he was good at what he did.

He visited Brit Embassy in DC when I worked there in the early millennium, him and Roy Castle's widow dropping in on behalf of the Roy Castle Cancer Foundation. Gave everyone his time during a long evening, including lots of fan-girling Brit women embassy employees who grew up with him on TV. Bizarrely, they'd also brought the League Cup with them for people to be individually photographed with, which a young CM did, dangling my BHA key ring from its lid for the photo. Seemed like an ego-free guy happily giving everyone his time throughout.

I'm amazed that people like Schofield have such longevity anyway.
Surely every year another batch of talented youngsters burst out from their various colleges etc who are so much more talented, cheaper, younger and prettier.
Almost anyone is more talented than Stephen Mulhern for example.

what was he cancelled for?
Being gay?
Having a young gay partner?
Lying about having a young gay partner?
all of the above?
Seems a bit harsh.

Eamonn Holmes was winding into Schofield this morning, it was quite unpleasant. He gave him both barrels.

Not for the first time, and won't be the last time either.

Cast away with Phil S and special guest P Diddy?

I think Diddy's accommodation is settled for many years to come.

Having a good career doesn't mean you have talent. Even Leon Best (Newcastle Championship title 2009-10) has won more than Harry Kane.
My German 'ex' loved him. Swore blind he was German (she pronounced his name 'schoelfeld'), here to bring culture and jollity from der fatherland.

Television presenting is much harder than people think and his viewing figures suggest otherwise.
I'm no fan of his and as for This Morning.. awful.
But he is a brilliant communicator only out of his depth when This Morning goes out it's depth interviewing politicians. He ain't a journalist that's for sure.
However credit where credit is due. Over promoted, lack of talent do not apply to him. He's forged a successful career for years across a number of genres in a commercial environment.
If he wasn't pulling in the viewers (and the advertisers) he'd have been off the screen years ago. ITV are ruthless and I'm not talking about Eamonn's ex-partner.
That's all he is there to do and he did it very very well for years.
