Amanda Holden has made a sly dig at This Morning hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield for "jumping the queue" to see the Queen Lying-in-State last week. There has been massive backlash for the longterm presenters of This Morning, when Holly, 41, and Phillip, 60, could be seen lining up in Westminster Hall to pay their respects to the late monarch on Friday, however, their 'media passes' meant that they were fast-tracked ahead of thousands of others who had queued for up to 24 hours. A petition to have them axed from the show has reached nearly 60,000 signatures, and celebrities from Eamonn Holmes and Amanda Holden to Piers Morgan have waded into the row.
