“But don’t you see that that’s utterly bonkers,” the presenter replied, with Grant in agreement as he seemingly replied to Schofield’s comment.
Actor Hugh Grant has voiced his frustration at the government’s handling of the coronavirus crisis.
The This Morning interview followed after Schofield launched a scathing attack on the government as he described the “utter confusion” he felt watching the Prime Minister’s lockdown update on Sunday night.
Grant, 59, reshared a clip taken from ITV daytime programme This Morning, which saw presenter Phillip Schofield ask health secretary Matt Hancock whether he was really saying that people could see their two parents separately 10 minutes apart, but not together under new lockdown guidance.
