ITV HAS INSTRUCTED a barrister to carry out an external review of the facts following Phillip Schofield’s departure from This Morning and subsequent press statements, chief executive Carolyn McCall has said in a letter seen by the PA news agency.

The session is expected to focus on scrutiny of the forthcoming Media Bill, with SNP MP John Nicolson – a committee member – writing on Twitter: “The issues erupting around ITV have been a cause for concern.The letter says ITV has instructed Jane Mulcahy KC, of Blackstone Chambers, to “carry out an external review to establish the facts”.
“There have also been wider stories about This Morning including about a former This Morning presenter Dr Ranj,” the letter said.
