ITV show This Morning has insisted its presenters Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby did not “jump the queue” for Queen Elizabeth II’s lying in state.
TheThis Morning presenters Willoughby and Schofield queued in a separate line to the thousands of mourners who waited hours to view the Queen lying in state in the ancient hall.
The pair have received criticism on social media after they appeared inside Westminster Hall without having taken part in the queue.
Good Morning Britain host Susanna Reid said she had queued for seven hours and 20 minutes to see the lying in state.
