Loose Women dropped from ITV schedule tomorrow
Today saw Loose Women air for the final time this week.
The show usually airs Monday through to Friday, however this week, it’s set to be replaced in the Friday schedules.
Instead, the show’s all-male spin-off, Loose Men, will be airing at 12:30pm on ITV instead.
The hit spin-off is returning to mark International Men’s Day – which takes place this weekend (November 19).
A host of familiar faces will be returning to front the show tomorrow afternoon.
Vernon Kay will be returning to host the show tomorrow.
He will be joined by the actor Larry Lamb, singer Olly Murs, and sports personality Ade Adepitan MBE.
Together, they’ll discuss men’s mental health, love, and loneliness in a bid to tackle taboos.
Jake Quickenden will also speak about losing his father and brother to cancer. He will also have a testicular examination in front of the studio audience.
Vernon Kay speaks about Loose Men
Tomorrow’s host, Vernon, spoke of his excitment about hosting Loose Men again.
“It’s always exciting to host Loose Men and in general, it’s really important to talk about both men’s physical and mental health,” he said.
“This particular show will highlight how important it is for men to not succumb to the stigma of talking about body issues – let’s get rid of all that!”
He then revealed that he’ll be joined by a new panel tomorrow.
“I’ve enjoyed every moment of being a guest on Loose Women over the years and I think a show like Loose Men is very, very, very much needed,” Larry Lamb said.
Janet Street-Porter under fire on Loose Women
In other Loose Women-related news, Janet Street-Porter came under fire earlier this week for her comments about Matt Hancock.
During a chat about I’m A Celebrity, Janet said that if she was in the jungle with the Tory MP, she’d “physically assault” him.
“It’s a good job I wasn’t in the jungle this time because if I had been round that campfire and he’d walked in, I would have either physically assaulted him or I would have to leave,” she said.
Viewers were not happy with Janet – or the fact that her co-stars had laughed after her shocking remark.
“Why is it ok for Janet to say she would physically assault Matt & gets a laugh from the panel & audience? What would happen if Matt had said that against Janet,” one viewer tweeted.
“So on #LooseWomen Janet Street-Porter said she would physically assault Matt Hancock & the other Loose Women didn’t react. Yet if a man said they would physically assault a woman, the Loose Women would be outraged & saying he’s encouraging violence towards women & girls,” another said.
