Viewers aren't happy with the decision to pull all scheduled shows for a live news broadcast

This Morning and Loose Women have been scrapped for live updates after David Cameron resigned as Prime Minister.

One fan responded: “I'm not happy about that I love my girls x”

With another adding: “That is ridiculous should have had their say instead of all the usual who got it wrong rock."

Another upset viewer wrote: "Shame, I would have loved to have heard what you girls had to say on it!!!! Feisty!!"

Despite the change to regular scheduling, many were unsure if the shows would still be recorded and broadcast later on.

 Loose Women will still be filmed today and broadcast at a later date.

After his family members had travelled directly to the studio, one fan responded to Loose Women's Twitter asking: “Will you still be recording a show as my Mum as Sister are due to be in the audience?”

Confirming that the ladies will still be filming, Nadia Sawalha replied: "We won't be live but we are still doing the show !"

Upset at the decision, another loyal Loose Women viewer added she was “devastated” at the news and it had "ruined" her day.
