Phillip Schofield #54 went away, now Castaway

Phillip Schofield #53 The Rise & Fall & Return Of The PeriSchofe

He doesn't know that you squeeze a mango to know if it's ripe? Hopefully in the next one they trail an "explosive" clip in the final show of him blaming holly for dragging him past the queue to see the queen. His pity party failing and also dragging her down with him is the best outcome.

update:

PS career resurrection attempt via Channel 5 trilogy Castaway, one epsiode screened last night, reviews aplenty, mostly poor.

A total exercise in self pity! Either tit or get off the pot Phil. Either say nothing at all or at least make it worth watching and throw everyone under the bus and spill the tea ffs. His ego hasn’t taken a dent anyway. Angry and blaming everyone but himself of course

Is this a snippet from Tattle?

The Guardian review, which I'm not clicking on at all, says he's "an incredibly bitter man (but he sure knows how to entertain)" with 2 out of 5 stars.

The optics of this public pity party aren't helping his cause. What a shame

 

[girlinbrum]

Oh Molly, if you are reading Tattle, really dear what are you proud of?

Turned off just when he got to the Island… ITV & the pedestals they put all their so called talent on is just wrong… he’s a horrible arrogant tv presenter who thinks he’s gods gift & forgets he had an underage relationship with a boy who was underage when started!! I’m sure there are more of Philfs young victims out there…

 

[JarvisCockerSpaniel]

LMAO they sent a runner out to dig him a little puddle of water to drink and then no doubt signposted it to him. I wonder if they also released the crab

I feel quite sorry for his daughters because it can't be easy trying to defend and be loyal to their father especially if their mother is in on the act.

The Telegraph review is pure SHAAAAADE, mama.

They call it a "compelling, bitchy, self-pitying revenge mission" and say: "A quick recap: Schofield lost his handsomely paid job as the face of This Morning after repeatedly lying about an affair with a runner who was 15 when they met and 20 when they began a sexual relationship (Schofield was then in his mid-50s). After more than a year of reflection he has decided to blame his downfall on homophobia, rather than his deceit. He will go no further than saying the affair was “unwise”, a description that sounds as if it has been workshopped by a team of lawyers and publicists."

which I think is bang on. Also point out that of course his daughters are gonna support him - he's their meal ticket and one of them's his manager!

Honestly tho I cannot comprehend the sheer scale of off-the-charts narcissism a man must have to be rightly done up like a kipper for predatory and deceitful behaviour, take a year off to think about it and rather than working on himself....blames everybody else!!

I don't, being purely cynical - their dad is their meal ticket. Are they gonna defend their £££££? Girl, of course they are!

Hopefully viewing figures will be minimal for the rest of this pity party extravaganza.

 

[Gym&Tonic]

So as we all thought this has backfired spectacularly. What a shame. Not

TBH I reckon they'll be high like the Meghan and Harry Oprah interview, but don't get it twisted - with Schofe as with H&M, people aren't tuning in cos they're fans, they're tuning in cos we all secretly love a hate-watch.

I feel sorry for these girls. They are doing his bidding for him. Literally sending them in to negotiate deals and uphold his public image, which is the rough end of the wedge. He really does have form using young people, in various ways.

 

[HollyGolightly]

Eamonn lashing out again...

 

[Ginnyjo]

So it backfired? only a self absorbed narc would think this was a good idea, PS was never beloved, he was just tolerated, now it's been exposed him and his brother are cut from the same cloth, noone wants him around.

 

[Ndrangheta]

(posted this in the Holly Willoughby thread too) Not sure if there's much about Phil, bit hearing him called a 'p3d0-perv' was satisfying.

I feel sorry for them in a way too. I bet the close, happy family image they all portray is just that. An image.

I agree, they seem to be trying far too hard with the 'happy family, we're very close and supportive of each other' narrative.

 

[iieee]

Is anyone watching Jeremy Vine? There's all sorts of old women calling in crying about how poor Phil has been treated making me feel a bit ill
