THIS Morning viewers are convinced This Morning bosses have given a major clue about who will permanently replace Phillip Schofield.

It was revealed on today's show that Holly Willoughby and Dermot O'Leary will present This Morning for the next two weeks.

Dermot announced his long hosting stretch in what appears to be the biggest hint yet that he's the front-runner for Phillip's job,

The shake-up means Josie Gibson and Craig Doyle will not co-anchor with Holly for the next fortnight.

Instead Holly and Dermot will offer viewers a more stable presenting partnership than in recent weeks.

Fans are now convinced Friday host Dermot will end up being a main presenter.

A viewer wrote: "I think Dermot is a good choice to replace Philip on This Morning."

Another said: "This Morning should keep Dermot with Holly."

"I'm liking the Dermot and Holly combination," said one.

A fan added: "I think Dermot is very good with Holly.....and serious but funny too. Alison too overpowering but like her with Josie. Love This Morning. Holly Willoughby's so happy today."

Holly returned to the daytime show today for her second week without Phil.

Last week she spent two days presenting with Josie and the other two with Craig.

Today she's hosting alongside Dermot - having last presented This Morning together a decade ago.

They were also co-presenters on The X Factor's spin-off show in 2008.

Dermot said it was weird to be on the sofa together, as normally the pals see each other outside of work.

Meanwhile Dermot is a Friday presenter on This Morning alongside Alison Hammond.

Phillip stepped down from ITV after confessing to an extra-marital affair with a much younger male runner on This Morning.

The 61-year-old revealed he is “utterly broken and ashamed” — but stressed he did not groom him.

ITV announced Holly will co-host with various This Morning presenters in light of Phil's exit.
