The Scottish Mail on Sunday

HEAR a nasty pay row is brewing at This Morning,

-

I where the show’s star presenters Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, right, have received a bumper pay rise for working an extra half-an-hour a day... while no one working behind the camera has had a bean.

According to my ITV mole, all staff on the show – even editor Martin Frizell – have been told their pay will stay the same, prompting grumbles that Holly and Phil should sacrifice some of their rise to free up some cash for everyone else. My source says: ‘The rumour is that the amount that Holly and Phil have been given for their extra work totals more than the editor’s annual salary, believed to be around £130,000.’ Although they’ve been given extra staff resources, it seems it’s one rule for ‘the talent’ and another for those who do all the hard graft behind the scenes.
