This Morning track down the Skelmorlie Cown<\/h3>\n

This Morning viewers have slammed the show for \u201cscraping the barrel\u201d after interviewing a man dressed as a clown who has been dotting red balloons around in Skelmorlie in Scotland in recent weeks.<\/p>\n

Fans claimed they were \u201cembarrassed to watch it\u201d as Alison Hammond and Dermot O\u2019Leary earnestly engaged with the segment.<\/p>\n

Reporter Isla Traquair, who was live in North Aryshire, spoke via video link while the clown began wandering behind her as Alison shouted: “It’s behind you. It’s behind you Isla. Look!”<\/p>\n

Isla then ran an \u201cexclusive interview\u201d with the man who remained in character throughout.<\/p>\n

Speaking in rhyme he sounded sinister as he spoke, even name checking Alison as he mentioned the game he runs for the locals and told viewers to look behind them.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Although he emulates the look of Pennywise, the killer clown from horror master Stephen King\u2019s IT, the extent of his mischief is placing red balloons throughout the area.<\/p>\n

Isla then chatted to locals who had mixed feelings about the gimmick, which the man, whose identity is unknown, has done for the past three years.<\/p>\n

One resident named Angela Jack said she’s not scared of him and saying he’s a “very good addition to the village” and that people “love him”. “They get on well with the jokes that he puts on,” she told Isla.<\/p>\n

Viewers were less impressed with the feature however and took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to slam the show for “scraping the barrel”. A fan called @CKurkova ranted: “They must be embarrassed presenting this trip, I’m embarrassed watching it.”<\/p>\n

A second viewer called @iamanotherben agreed commenting: “Just when you think they\u2019ve scraped the bottom of the content barrel clean they come up with this.”<\/p>\n

Someone else called @Charlie_Gaze quipped: “Plenty of clowns producing #ThisMorning at the moment with the content on display.”<\/p>\n

While another viewer calling themselves @MadameMinge couldn\u2019t take it seriously writing: “It\u2019s behind you! F*** me, panto season\u2019s started already.” (sic)<\/p>\n

Express.co.uk have contacted This Morning for comment.<\/em><\/p>\n

The furore comes in the first full week for the show since Holly Willoughby announced she was resigning. The ITV presenter shared a message to her 8.4 million followers on Instagram following days of speculation over whether she would be return to the show.<\/p>\n

She wrote: “I have let ITV know today that after 14 years, I will not be returning to This Morning. To everyone who has ever worked on the show over the years, thank you so so much.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also acknowledged the show’s audience writing: “Most of all, thank you to the wonderful viewers. You’ve been so loyal, so supportive and the very best company every day.”<\/p>\n

This Morning is on ITV weekedays from 10am – 12.30pm<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
