This Morning's bosses called out by viewers over major location blunder

This Morning made a major location gaffe on Monday’s show, and viewers didn’t let ITV get away with it.

At the start of the show, Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford were speaking to a paddle-boarder in Weymouth.

The ITV hosts were speaking to guest Buster in Weymouth about a rather friendly seal called Sammy, who had been mounting people’s paddle boards.

During the interview the hosts referred to Weymouth as being in Devon – but it’s actually in Dorset.

A graphic on the screen read “Weymouth, Devon”, while another said “Devon’s local ‘seal-ebrity'”.

Fans rushed to Twitter, showering the show with messages saying that Weymouth is in Dorset, not Devon.

One said: “Hey @thismorning Weymouth is in DORSET, not Devon.”

While another wrote: “Weymouth Devon??? Weymouth is in Dorset.”

“@EamonnHolmes @RuthieeL weymouth is in Dorset guys not Devon!”, added a third.

After realising the error, Eamonn and Ruth quickly corrected the mistake.

Eamonn cleared up the confusion as he said: “Weymouth is in Dorset, not Devon.”

Ruth added: “I should have known that.”

Sammy the seal has hit headlines after hitching rides with people on their paddle boards.

Seals are usually shy, but this animal, known as Sammy, has been spotted regularly at Weymouth, Dorset, for months.

Sammy has even been known to approach people, and has started hopping on board with boarders taking to the ocean waves.

Also on Monday’s This Morning, viewers went into meltdown after the show’s consumer expert accidentally swore.

Katie Morley was on the episode to help viewers in her ‘consumer helpline’ segment.

Katie was listening Lesley explaining the difficulty she’d had getting a refund for a sofa during the lockdown.

Her emotions got the better of her as she declared: “So sorry darling that’s s***”, before quickly covering her mouth when she realised what she’d done.

This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV.
