Oh my god!!i cannot believe that was the last ‘This Moning’ with Fern on it. I thought the last programme was amazing, and made me laugh and cry!!! but is there going to be a repeat of it, because i know people who missed it and cant find it to watch, and i myself would love to watch it again!! Good luck to the both of them!! x


lisa says:

GINA says:

I love philip and fern, i would watch a full hour just watching them too. it makes my day feel much beter ,specialy in the winter . it will be a shame to lose fern i will miss u the show wount be the same


Annabelle says:

The “beef” clip is probably one of the funniest things I have ever watched on television! I literally cry with laughter every time I watch it…Phil and Fern have never lost complete control like that before or since that particular show! BRILLIANT!


Anne Corcoran says:

Fern & Phil are the best duo on tv, i have never seen two people who work so well together. It’s such a shame that you’ve fallen out with each other, i really miss the continual giggling between them. Since the fall out , the close ness between them has gone, i hope they soon make-up, i will miss them soooo much. I’ve had so many tummy aches where they’ve made me laugh so much. Perhaps a dvd could be made of all the funny bits of them giggling, it would go to no.1 in the charts, because they are so popular. xxx


carolyn says:

Sad that Fern is moving on will really miss her..hope she finds happiness in all that she does…she`s brigthened up my day for a long time…and phillip if you need help in the mornings just call me ..Good luck fern and hubby phill AND best of luck phillip (come back gordan all is forgiven). love cas


James Cunningham says:

When I heard the announcement of Fern’s departure I was genuinely saddened. I don’t think anyone thought Richard and Judy could be topped… and then the unique fun and warmth of Phil and Fern proved they could! I wish Fern all the very best for the future and also hope, Phil that you will find someone else who you can enjoy working with as much…. Sarah Greene gets my vote! Thank you for so many happy moments… and I look forward to many more!!


gilla kelly says:

i love watching this morning you two make it worth watching when ever i feel down or sad i just watch u two u both make my day wot a laugh i get when its phil n fern ..i must admit i dont watch this morning when phil n fern r off on hols …u both should have a comedy act u r brill …. i am going to miss fern good luck to you fern hope u have a lovely time enjoying your family take care xxx…. phil i really hope u dont leave as well love u both xxx


Jackie Downey says:

Thanks so much for some absolutely fabulous memories and laughs, i actually feel quite sad at Ferns departure, i feel she didnt recieved the love and feedback that she so rightly deserved, due to the very fact that you Phil are so damn gorgeous, LOL, but i do so hope Fern realises that she is going to be leaving a massive void and i dont envy whom ever has taken her place one bit, other than she will be lucky to work with a master! ok enough boquette throughing and please give Fern a BIG HUG from all her adoring fans, more to the point where is her fan club site? i should be able to leave this for her to read and not to have u pass it on third party! Thanks Fern, love ya loads, hope u find your happiness and im certain u shall not leave Phil far behind!! x x Jackie D.


Evelyn Conlay says:

oh dear I watch this video clip quite often and I still laugh myself silly every time. I really cannot believe you pair are going to split up.

Please can you show more of your funny moments because there are so many of them I would love to see again.

In fact can you not make a whole DVD of them because I am positive it would be a best seller

I love you both

Evelyn xx


Elaine Truesdale says:

I remember this so well….I’m in tears of laughter,watching it again…. You and Fern just “bounce ” off each other! Whilst I respect Fern’s decision….you are a double act and I hope that whoever fills Fern’s shoes is worthy of the title! Thank you both for the show! x


emma says:

Fern please don’t go your my sons second mum as soon as he hears you he settles, he had a bad start to live, suffered a lot with colic an then acid reflux but as soon are fern came on he would go quit and sorry go to sleep peacefully…..don’t go you’ll be missed.


Christina says:

Quite simply, the chemistry and fun Fern and Phillip enjoy together is irreplaceable. They have brought so much fun, laughter and joy to all of us who are lucky enough to catch a show either when not at work but more importantly for those, like my darling Mum who feels that she has “friends visiting” when she watches This Morning with Fern and Phillip presenting together. Mum is an active 83 year old but there are days, for many reasons that she may be housebound and This Morning she wouldn’t miss. Infact the days when she can get out she won’t until she’s watched This Morning with Fern and Phillip. Please give both Fern and Phillip our love and best wishes


\Charmian Hesp says:

Fern - Please don’t go. We shall miss you so much down here in the West Country. Phil, can’t you persuade her to stay PLEASE. I don’t think I shall be able to watch the show without Fern.


serendipitysoph says:

Whenever I’m having a bad time I usually search out the funny clips from TM. The dunking beef is a classic and always makes me cry with laughter.
I’m gutted Fern is leaving. The regular fit of the giggles is fab to watch and I can’t imagine that with anyone else. She’s a top woman.
Good luck Fern in all you do and all the best with the veg growing.

BTW A very happy birthday Phil and many happy returns.


Josie says:

Just watched “dunking the beef” for the umpteenth time, still cracks me up! Can’t imagine anyone who could possibly replace Fern.Who could have a sense of humour like this? This morning will never be the same.


Deborah Roby says:

Man I wish I didn’t have a job! Hysterical.


sarah says:

fern you cant go!!!!!!!!!!!!please!!!!! we all love you so much an it wont be the same if you go!!!!!! there is nothing better than listening to you both an all your funny funny moments, Phillip will be lost without you xxxx


Josie says:

Cant imagine the show without Fern. PLEASE choose carefully Phil.Best wishes to you both xx


fatima says:

Oh!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!FERN CAN’T LEAVE YOU PHILL,YOU’VE BEEN THE BEST DUO IN “THIS MORNING”. THE SHOW WILL NOT BE THE SAME WITHOUT THE FUNNY LAUGHTER TO FILL THE BOX EVERY MORNING.YOU WILL BE MISSED FERN. HOW ABOUT A GOOD SIDE REPLACEMENT FOR YOU PHILL!! MISS HOLLY, SHE WILL BE GOOD BY YOUR SIDE

LOVE FATIMA♥♥


Bea says:

I have been sick from work for quite a few months and have laughed and cried many a morning with (and at :-))you both. Thank you so much for making my pain so much easier to bare with This Morning. Of Course you will be missed tremendously Fern you are such a warm and lovely person. Phil, I am sure you will choose the perfect person to present with you and love and good luck to you both xx


bev says:

so sad to hear furn is leaving, it wont be the same without her,all the best for the future xxx bev & jack


shirley says:

It will not be the same without this perfect duo. They are so natural together. Nothing false about them whatsoever. ‘This morning’ is like having your friends or family in your home every morning. I know nothing good lasts for ever but could Fern and Philip do something new together? They are after all a winning team.


LINDSAY NORMAN says:

THANKYOU SO MUCH FERN FOR JUST BEING SO NATURAL,WARM AND ABOVE ALL FUNNY!!!! YOU AND PHIL HAVE BRIGHTEND UP MY MORNINGS SPENT LOOKING AFTER MY BABIES!!!!MOTHERHOOD ALTHOUGH WONDERFUL IT CAN ALSO BE BORING AT TIMES AND LONLEY!!!
I JUST CAN NOT THINK WHO COULD BE AS FANTASTIC AS YOU !!!!
IT HAS TO BE SOMEONE WITH A WARM,FUNNY AND NAUGHTY SENSE OF HUMOUR SUCH AS YOURSELF!!
YOU HAVE BEEN INSPIRATIONAL!!!! TAKE CARE,HAVE A WONDERFUL REST AND ENJOY YOUR LIFE WITH YOUR LOVELY FAMILY XXXXX
PS I LAUGHED AT YOUR SPOTTED DICK COMMENT !! THANKS FOR THE LAUGHS X


Annmarie says:

Will miss you sooo much Fern, you and Phil are simply the best! Good luck with whatever you do and Phil too with the show in September. I have watched This Morning since you both started together and loved every minute you have entertained me every day, wont be the same without you two. Enjoy your family and vegetable plot!!


Katy says:

Can’t believe Fern is leaving - just won’t be the same without her. Oh how I love it when Phil and Fern get the giggles.

Wishing you all the luck in the world Fern - you are gonna be missed so much. K x


Trudy Sherwood says:

Oh that was funny Oh how good she is shame is going but can understand why. Hay you will both have to get a dvd together with all the best bits with you two. That would be good I would buy it.

I wish you and Fern the best and I hope they give you someone who you can laugh with, No one will be like are Fern thogh she is just great.


rosemary Parker says:

So going to m iss Fern- phillip without Fern will be like salt without pepper. you two are fab together. When I retired I looked forward each day to watching the two of you together, as I like a good laugh to break up a tiring day. Good Luck to you both, I hope you get a smashing replacement for Fern, someone with a good sense of humour and a caring nature, she will be hard to follow.
Love to you both


Sarah Giddings says:

Fern is going to be missed so much in her own right, but its the partnership between her and Phillip I will miss the most, it would be the same if he was the one leaving. Their partnership is unique. Good luck to Fern for the future, hope she loves being at home with the family, but dont leave it too long before coming back onto our screens! How about giving Dancing on Ice a go next time?! Good luck to you too Phillip, but dont you even dare think about going!!!!!!!! Keep on with the fun in the meantime. xx


lesley gibson says:

i am totally stunned, we howl laughing with you fern is this morning along with your good self, what a team! never can she be replaced it just won’t seem the same but hey ho all good things come to an end all the very best to fern and good luck to you phil x


Hilary says:

I was very sorry to hear that Fern is not happy to stay as you do both work brilliantly together.I have been an admirer of both of you since very early days & together couldn’t have been a better professional team, as well as showing the mutual respect you have for each other.We will miss the fun & ‘togetherness’ you convey.
It will be a sad day for all of us in July but wish Fern all the best for the future & Phillip someone he will be happy working with.


Jenny says:

Fern and Phil ARE This Morning and without the partnership I’m not sure if I’ll bother too much with it. Fern, you’re the person I’d most want as a best friend and next door neighbour. I honestly feel quite tearful that I won’t be able to see you four days a week. However, that’s me being totally selfish and I wish you and your lovely husband and children every joy and happiness. You deserve it.


Edward Foley says:

So sorry to hear Ferns leaving. The two of you had natural chemistry and made me and the family laugh. Please pass on my best.
Ed


toni scaife says:

fern is leaving omg!!
will miss you two making me laugh just by watching you laugh!!
its been a great 6 yrs of morning tele
i hope fern has fun in whatever she does next and phil hopefully gets on and enjoys working TM without her
all the best to both of you

p.s any chance of a dvd of the bloopers??? haha


Janice says:

Was absolutely gutted to hear that Fern is leaving. You two brighten up my morning, and I have been reduced to tears many a time from your giggling! I feel it is the end of an era and she will definitely be sorely missed. Fern is a lovely and warm person and I will miss the chemistry between the two of you, very much. The “dunking beef” and the “muffins” still make me disolve in tears of laughter every time I watch it. This morning, with the “spotted dick” comment made me laugh too. Wish you well Fern, we will miss you so very much.


Paula Pearce says:

Absolutely devasted that Fern is leaving. What shattering news. You two are like salt and pepper, you go together!

Please think wisely about your new partner because Fern’s shoes are going to be hard to fill.

Send her my love and to you too, it will be strange for you for a while.

Trevor says:

Its so sad to hear the news that fern is leaving, This Morning wont be the same again…


Sue says:

Sad to hear Fern leaving, will miss you both laughing hysterically!Couldn’t watch every day due to work but when I did you always made me laugh!


Amanda says:

I am terribly sad that Fern is leaving ‘This Morning’. The chemistry you have together on the programe is fantastic. Real buddies which is smashing to see. I love your fits of laughter because it is natural and true and brings sunshine to my day.

Give her my love Phil and I send my love to you too.

Of course I understand that she wants time with her family because like me and you they love her.


Allison Allen says:

So sorry to hear that Fern is leaving. The chemistry between the two of you works so well. I hope she still keeps in touch with the show, her bike rides etc. Maybe some special reports? You have both made me laugh until I’ve cried. Please pass on our best wishes and I hope she enjoys whatever new projects she undertakes.

Best wishes to you both.


dawn says:

So sad she’s leaving End of an era.


Helen says:

I`m gonna miss Fern, she is funny, warm and sincere…and when you guys set off laughing together, it is hilarious!!!!….she will be missed very much, I wish her all the very best for her future x


Sarah says:

So sorry to hear Fern is leaving, it wont be the same without her. Im sure she will want to be spending more time with her lovely husband and children - cant blame her for that!
Ive just watched ‘dunking the beef’ - have seen it numerous times but it still makes me cry with laughter.
All the best to Fern - she is a lovely lady.
x


Sharon says:

Oh! Gutted that Fern is going but I wish her every happiness and success in her future projects. Fern will be missed sooo much. I have giggled with you both over the last few years. Now a replacement - how about John Barrowman! Or someone we’ve never heard of yet!

Phil give Fern all our love and make sure she knows just how much she will be missed!


Suzanne Jones says:

As hard as it will be to find a replacement for Fern as you have the greatest chemistry between you. I think you wouldnt go far wrong trying to persuade Sain Williams from BBC breakfast news to join you. She has a wonderful personna and a great sense of humour too, not to mention her good looks. I think you would gel very well together. Grab her quick whilst shes on maternity leave. :)


Raefy says:

I have taken early retirement from teaching and watch the show every day. So sad to hear that Fern is leaving. It won’t be the same without her, she is such a lovely lady. I will certainly miss the banter between you two, especially when Phil is trying so hard to demonstarte a recipe!! Priceless…..


Yvette Marie Stevenson says:

i am going to really miss Fern with Phillip together you are really really funny because you just click and make each other lough and i will miss fern on this morning with Phillip and the rast of this morning’framily.


diane haguer says:

dont go fern, it wont be the same!

phil, dont let her go, lock her in the studio till she promises not to leave


carol says:

don’t no what to say, their is not a lot you can put into words about such a lovely lady like fern, she brought a spark to everyone’s life when she was on the tv, she is a true star and i will miss her very much, keep safe fern,xxx, and who ever you get philip i hope you the best for the future…xx.


Ellylaine says:

Fern and Phillip, the masters of one liners, double meanings, and the eye contact before you both burst out in fits of giggles, like a couple of naughty school children.
It took a long time before Richard and Judy’s replacements were filled, many of them did not gel at all, not until Fern and Phillip, and now another great partnership is coming to a close.
It is so sad but if Fern has her reasons then so be it, it will be very hard to find a replacement for her and for me it just won’t be the same.
Whatever you do Fern I am sure you have the nations best wishes with you, enjoy your family, your life, and whatever projects that come in the future. x


Stephanie K says:

Never seen that before, so funny! Do you have more funny bits? (I mean it in the nicest possible way!)


vivienne Bilton says:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Fernie dont go :’( we will miss you soo much, I LOVE the chemistry between you and Phil, your just so natural like really good pals who just have a huge laugh< I LOVE how you sometimes can’t get through a part of the show cos you both set each other off giggling, I will miss that cos the only others on tv who’s partnership and friendship is as honest and warm as your and Phil’s is Ant and Dec’s.
I wish you all the best in whatever you choose to do Fern and thank you soo much for cheering me up when I have felt down, I feel like I am loosing touch with a good friend :’(

(ps Phil, my daughter Vix has a similar sense of humour she will help you out any time I’m sure lol shall I send you her email, she lives in Hampstead :p

xx Vivienne xx


sara says:

No fern please dont you and phil are g8 i will b very sad and so will my daughteer who is six and i have to tape the show everyday so she can see u both


Marion O'Dwyer says:

Can’t believe our favourite duo will be no more! This Morning will never be the same without the two of you together. I wish Fern would reconsider, but if she has to go I wish her great happiness and good forture in whatever she decides to do next.


Lynne says:

Can’t believe Fern is leaving!! you two are the funniest couple on tv. Wont be the same without her but i wish her well and hope you have as many laughs with who ever takes her place! Good Luck Fern xx


Vivian Bennett says:

It will not be the same without Fern, Its not going to sound the same no matter who your new partner is. To say “Phil and Fern” is like saying “Egg and Bacon” “Tea and Toast” such a comforting sound.

Who ever replaces her will have some big shoes to fill,( I don’t mean that Fern has big feet either :-) )

I love to watch This Morning but I think it is the two of you that I really watch it for because I look forward to the unexpected happening each day.

will miss you Fern … But Good Luck.


Scary_Cat_Lady says:

nooooo! so sad!
i love you two
x x x


Elizabeth says:

So sad to hear about Fern, we would surely miss watching her every morning. You two are perfect together. Anyway, best wishes to her and good luck for the future.

Phil, we know that you will surely miss her but we will always be here to support you. Take care too.


Sheryl says:

Watching those clips always has me in fits of laughter, I have loved watching you both together every morning for the last 6yrs & will miss the fun you had, you have put a smile on my face on some tough mornings, so thank you…I wish Fern all the luck in her new projects.

Please don’t be the next to announce your leaving Phil!!!

Love to you both Sheryl xx


ellen says:

what a laugh you 2 are together , such a shame fern leaving but she must do whats right for her , however she will be missed with that infectious laughter of hers.. and just a suggestion holly willoby or carol mcgiffen they both good presenters..goodluck fern…


amanda says:

Im so sad Fern is leaving, what a lovely lady she is. She was good friends with my step mum Ruth along time ago in her west country days and my step mum still says she has not changed one bit from when they used to hang out, they have lost contact now, so i know she will be sad as she enjoys watching her on This Morning. Good luck Fern!!! xxx


Julia Robertson says:

That is such a classic tv moment… They are such a fantastic duo and their unique combination will be sadly missed!!


paul says:

thismorning will never be the same,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, no more “dunking Beef”


Sophie says:

Only 2 best bits? There have been so many more!!! Fern is such a lovely, funny, beautiful lady - good luck in all she does!


ann whittaker says:

This Morning wont be the same again without Fern.we’ve all laughed and cried with her.You are both GREAT together, but i wish her lots of luck with whatever her next adventure will be.Lets just hope phil can get somebody half as good as Fern,that can keep up that spark the pair of you have together.Good Luck Fern, you will be missed more than you’ll ever know xxxxx


Susie Harkin says:

Awwww Fern can’t leave! Thismorning will never be the same again! Good luck to her in whatever she decides to do.


Anne says:

Oh sad to hear the news - sad for myself as it’s the end of an era. So enjoyed the banter between you too - the warmth and the onscreen chemistry along with the perfect partnership comes down off the screen and envelops me so I feel like part of it - and for people on their own that’s so rare and so vital.

Will miss you on “This Morning” Fern - the place just won’t be the same without you.


Becky Taylor says:

I am gutted , you both brighten up my morning as I work from home ,will miss your partnership .
I have been a Philip Schofield fan since gordon the gopher days and think that Fern and Philip are the best pair on telly for entertainment of the best kind .
Am very sad to see you go Fern , best of luck for your future x


julie brookes says:

so sad
you can not help yourself but laugh, with them, they just have that presence that just makes you feel good … best TV husband and wife every lol


Tarotmaiden says:

Im really going to miss Fern , my mornings are not going to be the same without Fern and Phill


Laura says:

I’m so gutted to hear about Fern. You two are amazing together and make me laugh so much. Watching the two of you on my college day off is always a highlight. This Morning wont be the same without Fern. I wish her all the best xx


Suzanne Porter says:

Fern obviously has her reasons and has thought this through very thoroughly so all I can say is that I wish her the very best of luck in whatever she does in the future. As well as missing Fern, the thing that is bothering me most is that Ruth Langsford will be taking over her spot!! I know Fern will be almost impossible to replace


Clive Padfield says:

NO FERN!!! just no!


Charlene says:

Oh NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww I am so sad that Fern is leaving she is just one of the most fantastic presenters and the both of you together… well what can I say…. you are just fabulous. I watch everyday waiting for those moments when you loose it and I laugh till I cry.
You will be missed greatly Fern. Good luck with all you do in the future I am sure it will be as fabulous.
I wish the next co-presenter of This Morning all the luck in the world….. you have some pretty fabulous shoes to fill


Norman says:

Good luck to Fern, bring on Carol Voderman, she,will do the math!


em says:

I have just read the news that Fern is leaving This Morning. She will be sadly missed as the other half of a fantastic television partnership.Good luck to her in the future and i look forward to many more laughs with Phil!!


Paula says:

I can’t imagine mornings without you pair - you just know how to set each other off! Good luck to Fern - I think you are an inspiration to us all, and Phil, well, if you need a new partner….


Looby73 says:

i feel i have more or less grown up with Phil (Broom cupboard and Gordon!) and its always a pleasure to turn on the TV when hes on the partnership with Fern will never be bettered.Having had three children over the last nine years Philip and later Philip and Fern have got me through many a morning!I have cried and laughed with them both,i have admired the way they talk with their guests sometimes tackling extremely emotive subjects but always professional.I really really will miss Fern but im glad Phils still going to be easing me into the day! Best of luck xxxxxxxx


MaccaAddison says:

Some absolutely fantastic moments. I am going to miss the fact that Fern and Phillip will no longer be together on This Morning.

I hope she stays on our TV screens and I hope that ITV find another vehicle for them to work together, because quite simply they do work together.

Fern has her reasons and I can understand them, it is sad nevertheless.


Slinkyminky says:

I am so gutted. I love your giggling fits so much - sometimes they keep me smiling for the whole day. I think Fern will be a hard act to follow but I’d like to nominate Coleen Nolan. She’s a scream and would get on brilliantly with Phil (she fancies the pants off him apparently!)


Karen Chizlett says:

I am sooooo upset that my morning dose of laughter will be no more :(
You two go together like clotted cream & scones!! I just cannot believe that come September you will be sharing the TM sofa with someone else - it just won’t be the same. The chemistry between you both is so genuine that it will be hard to replace her. She is such a warm, caring and funny person that she will be a hard act to follow. I do wish her all the best for the future. Maybe now the cookery bits with her hubby will be more serious, but sadly not nearly so entertaining! I’m depressed about it already - please find a replacement to make us laugh as much….. actually, I could do it as I don’t like eggs either!!!! Much love, Karen xxxxx


Clare Marsdeen says:

Oh I could wee myself every time I watch those clips!! Fern will be very much missed please get her to stay the sofas won’t be the same without her. There are more people who are for her than against and I think she’s absolutely fabulous.

Clare - West Yorkshire


cora haines says:

oh my goodness what a shock philip and fern are the best in the world ,when you cry we cry and when you laugh we laugh and oh do we laugh,i will miss you so much fern i know you will miss working with phil and phil will be lost without you.thank you for all the lovely memories and the times you have lifted my spirits.i pray that this morning can find someone with just as good a sence of humour as you fern .good luck and much love cora x


Kiren says:

I remember watching that live and cracking up laughing with the two of you …. and I’m still laughing watching it again. Classic TM! :D


Victoria says:

Noooo! she cant leave, she just cant you two are made for each other.
But best of British (not Beef) to her.
XXX


Hayley says:

Oh noooo!!!, Phil and Fern 2gether ARE this morning,it is never the same with stand in presenters.You are both genuine,warm,kind,funny down to earth people and Fern will be really missed.I wish her good luck with whatever she has decided to do and hope that you will carry on Phil…
xxx


mel says:

NO FERN YOU HAVE TO STAY…YOU AND PHILL ARE “THIS MORNING”…THERE IS NOBODY WHO WILL EVER HAVE WHAT YOU AND PHIL HAVE…PLEASE PLEASE STAY.XXXXX


Sammii Jenkins says:

Can’t believe the news what am I going to do now to get a laugh, you and Fern light up morning


Lisa says:

What a shame - such a natural team and the perfect on-screen partnership. I’m not sure how it can work without Fern unless it’s someone like Allison Hammond. FYI Fridays don’t work….surely the viewing figures show that. I only hope that Phil gets a BIG say in who the next presenter is. Fern you will be missed….


Nette05 says:

Sorry that your double act is coming to an end - Good Luck Fern we will miss you - Schofe hope you continue to make us smile.


MelCox says:

Such a hilarious partnership. So good together, Fern will be hard to replace!

Brilliant clips, loved it when you 2 got the giggles, I’m sure it made the whole country laugh with you.

All the best to Phil with breaking in a new sidekick, and to Fern with whatever adventure grabs her next! xx


Jenny says:

I will miss Fern very much. Phil and Fern are so good together. I think Ruth would be a perfect choice.


Bex says:

I am absolutely gutted that Fern is leaving, my friend text today and if I wasnt at work i would have shed a tear! Good luck Fern and for as long as Schofe stays as a presenter I will continue to support the show! xx


Nicki says:

Sorry me again, just had to say I agree with Jessica, Alison Hammond would be fantastic !!! :)


toya says:

this is so funny i laugh my head off everytime i see it


Nicki says:

Gutted, absolutely gutted, not sure it will ever be the same as you two worked so well together. :(

That famous ‘dunking the beef’ clip I have seen countless times yet still cry with laughter.

You’ll be missed Fern xxx


loisxmariex says:

Haha, seen that so many times, never fails to makeme laugh!
We should do a petition for Fern to stay!!
Aww these are the moments that will be missed :(


nicola Bateman says:

i am goign to miss you both together!!! beg her to stay phil!!

Fern best of luck in what ever you do next! x

will still watch the show as its fab!x


Deb Taylor says:

You two are the Morecambe and Wise of This Morning!,you are both guaranteed to cheer us up! A joy to watch always. And am very glad your not leaving aswell Phil. But wish Fern every success for the future.

Deb Taylor

Ps. Beef has never been the same lol!!


Dennise Allen says:

Can’t believe the news - it just won’t be the same without her. The chemistry between them is unbeatable. Fern is so down-to-earth, genuine, loving, caring & kind. Sometimes it feels like we all know her personally.

I wil really miss watching her lose control when there’s a moment of innuendo !!


Jessica says:

I’m with everyone else on this one.
I do have a suggestion though - ALISON HAMMOND!she whould be perfect!
Best wishes to Fern


jude says:

it is a big shame fern is leaving, i had a good few years laughing and nearly going into labour on many occasion when i was carrying my twins, when i was at my lowest after having them , you both just brought me back up, i will miss her most for her understanding of what life is really like for woman that have had postnatal depression to weight loss. will miss you fern xxx
i hope you get someone just as funny as fern im sure whoever it will be you will make them laugh like you did fern, good luck phil


Lise says:

OMG! Cant beleive it, i’ve recently read her biography and was sooo touched by it, she is an insperation to many of us and will be sadly missed. Good luck to her though and Phil im sorry you are loosing your best friend (on air anyway). My god that is going to take some beating to replace her. I bet there are mixed emotions at the moment. The last show had better see the return of the Advocat!!!!!Go out on a high literally.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx


vicky says:

omg i am so shocked that fern is leaving we all love her to bits. and it just makes things better when phil and fern are together, the perfect pair.
who ever takes her place has a lot to live up to. fern is an insperation to many!
take care fern and good luck to whatever you go on to do next.
x x x x


Jennifer says:

It’s a real shame that Fern is leaving This Morning - the partnership between the two of you is one that has made me cry from laughter at times.

I wish Fern all the best in whatever she moves onto next and look forward to seeing her on some new shows in the future. And i look forward to seeing your new partner on the sofa of this morning later in the year Philip.

Let’s hope you and Fern can work together in the future - it would be a real shame to break up such an entertaining partnership.
xx


karin says:

Oh no!! Who else on the telly can give me those belly laughs when not meant to but you 2?? It makes my day when you lose it and giggle and I laugh so much even when I,ve no idea what has made the pair of you loose the plot.It,s beyond sad but we,ll keep with the silver fox!! xx


Carole says:

Gosh, so sad to hear that. I must echo the other comments though about an excellent replacement; of course the lovely yummy mummy to be, Miss Holly! I think she would make a superb partner to you on this Morning Phillip.

Enjoy the last few weeks and looking forward to some more classic Philfernisms……


Jayne says:

What a shame, Fern and Phil you made “This Morning”. You two belong together, I really hope you can work on something new together soon, as it would be tragic to loose this fantastic working partnership. You’ve made me laugh so much over the years, and equally, made me cry with your genuine sentiment.

Phil I wish you luck with your new partner in September, they certainly don’t have an easy job, as unfortunately they will be compared to Fern. I do feel for the new person, but you’ll sort them out and make them comfortable, I’m sure!

And to Fern I wish you every happiness and success in your future career, you truly are a lovely lady.

Good luck to you both - and please let it not be long before we’re all laughing together again!

With love xxx


Nicola Tyrrell says:

nuala jackson says:

Ahh phil dont let her go!! tie her up to the sofa!! she must stay!! family and friends can visit out of this morning hours!! If she really must leave, then there really is only 1 person that has proved herself worthy recently - holly willobooby!! she was fantastic when she co-presented with you!!! you and fern make such a perfect team! its so sad!! tried to twitter you, but couldnt work thing out!


sharon says:

I hope you will have a fruitful time after This Morning although i am still wanting you to stay, take care, the last programme will be one to watch,god bless you both xxx

So sad Fern has decided to leave. I have enjoyed watching This Morning for many years and will miss Phil and Fern’s banter. I wish Fern all the best for future.

I am so sad that Fern is leaving This Morning. You two are the best double act going and have had me in hysterics on so many occasions. Fern will be missed hugely in our house. We wish Fern the very best for the future and love her dearly. Good luck Fern.
All our love and best wishes,

baby_tweeter says:

OH No! My Mummy has just started maternity leave just to watch you two in the mornings, I was just a handy excuse for her to lounge around watching you two mess up in the mornings, and chuckle about it for the rest of the day. She is going to be gutted, and me too, even though I’m only 8 weeks old XX


Ruth says:

After watching Richard & Judy for yrs i didn’t think anyone could replace them but along u both came n brightened up my mornings(when i am HOME)u will be very missed by me Fern What will poor Phillip do good luck with ur future
best wishes
Ruth xx


Jacky Bridgland says:

There will only be one Phillip n Fern, no duo will replace you both! You have given so much over the years, you have made me laugh and cry - all at the same time!!!!!
A hard act to follow, i wish you well for your future.
Jacky xxxxx


sally says:

oh gutted!!! you were great together!!! tell us its not true !!! and that it was all a big joke for you to giggle at next week /?? x


sharon says:

I laughed som much watching these! If you’re struggling for a replacement, I have some time on my hands at the moment…..


Flutterbys says:

Such a shame .. all good things come to an end and you and Fern will go down as one of the all time favourite presenting duos … I have no doubt we will see plenty of Fern on our screens and I’m sure you will get along just fine with your new sidekick … (I have an idea who)Congratulations on all you two have achieved together so far & Good Luck Fern …. This Morning fans will miss you xxx


Lauren J-R says:

please please please relase a dvd of Fern and Phillips Funny Moments!! Dr Chris always says laughter is a fab medicine and I have never laughed so much as when I watch you two together!!!!


kaz says:

philip and fern have cheered many a morning up for me, thier partnership on daytime tv will be missed greatly, i hope that fern gets family time and that she is not away from our screens too long, iam glad that philip is staying on and look forward to seeing who his new this morning partner is, holly would be a brill choice but i guess she is already very busy with a new baby, x factor and DOI - look forward to watching this morning till july for all the laughter and tears with phil and fern.


pauline campbell says:
