This Morning viewers slam presenter over doughnuts and jokes in queue to see Queen's coffin ThisMorning
This Morning's Alice Beer has been criticised for handing out doughnuts and cracking jokes as she met members of the public queuing up to see the late Queen Elizabeth II Lying-in-State in Westminster Hall.
Alice, 57, who has been with This Morning since 2014, went to speak to people who have camped out overnight to see Her Majesty Lying-in-State and say their personal goodbyes to a much-loved monarch. After the boy, named Lewis, explained to her that he had traveled from Cheltenham and arrived in London at 12.30am that morning, Alice asked him: "Are you tired?"
Viewers rushed to Twitter to vent their frustrations about Alice's joyful manner at such a sombre subject as the monarch's death, with one saying: "Does Alice realise it’s the actual queen these people are queuing for and not queen the band?"
