While Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary typically helm This Morning on a Friday, Phillip Schofield explained that there would be a change to this week's presenting schedule.

"A quick word about Friday's show, which we're doing, he said. "He's in high demand at this time of year but Father Christmas will be taking a break from his busy schedule to answer your children's questions." The 59-year-old didn't reveal the reason exactly why he and Holly would be returning, however, he has made it clear that Alison and Dermot will be back on the sofa next week.
