ITV This Morning viewers fuming over 'ridiculous' segment

This Morning fans were left angry today, as the show had a segment all about Christmas.

Despite it still being August the show went all out for Christmas, with 120 days to go.

John Lewis has already opened its Christmas shop, to "help Brits beat lockdown boredom" so the show took a look at things you could already buy in shops.

Host Eamonn Holmes thought it was too early to be chatting about the subject, but Ruth Langsford was all for it and said she couldn't wait for the festive season.

Presenter Georgia Burnett spoke about decorations, Christmas trees and festive food that you could purchase.

There were mince pies, which Eamonn and Ruth tucked into with glee and decorations from the Disney store.
