Dermot O’Leary on This Morning today
Dermot and co-presenter Alison presented from a new location today. The duo swapped the studio for the cobbles to present a special Coronation Street collab show.
Why does Dermot look like he’s off to a funeral?
The special Coronation show included a tour round Weatherfield and a street party attended by Corrie cast members. There was also a retreat inside The Rovers Return Inn for shelter when a classic British dowpour struck! However it was not the changed location, but Dermot’s changed appearance, that seemed to get This Morning fans talking.
In the spirit of the occasion, Dermot seemed to have opted for an outfit outside of his usual style. In a change from his usual presenting attire, Dermot was looking very dapper in a smart black suit.
During and following the segment, many viewers took to social media to try to make sense of Dermot‘s strange appearance. They all seemed to be saying the same thing about the presenter’s outfit.
“Why is Dermot dressed for a funeral?” One person tweeted.
“Is Dermot going to a funeral after this?” Someone else agreed. Another person also said: “Why does Dermot look like he’s off to a funeral?”
Overall, the special episode of the show received mixed opinions from ITV viewers.
