View in browser Tuesday May 23 2023 Given how little ITV has actually said about it, fans of This Morning may still be wondering why exactly Phillip Schofield has gone. Yet for our columnist Michael Deacon, the presenter should have been given his marching orders more than a decade ago, when he was responsible for perhaps the most stupendously ill-judged piece of television of all time. Elsewhere, we review the sartorial savvy of Rishi Sunak and Akshata Murty off the back of their recent Japan trip, and everyone's favourite puzzle turns one. Happy reading!
