The two made their debut on Friday
Alison and Dermot’s first show comes soon after it was announced that Eamonn and Ruth would be stepping down from their usual weekly hosting roles and instead filling in for Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby during holiday breaks.
Back in December, Ruth and Eamonn reacted to the news by posting messages to their fans on social media. Eamonn shared an image of him and his wife accepting a National Television Award, writing in the caption: “We bow out of 15 years of our Friday slot on This Morning today. Thanks for the memories, hope we made some for you too. Until February, may it be a Happy Christmas to you all.”
Ruth also said her goodbyes via Instagram, “It’s a changing of the guard on Fridays from January. We hope you make Alison and Dermot as welcome as you’ve made us over the years. Have a Ball you two! It’s not Goodbye from us, it’s simply Au Revoir until the next half term.”
