ITV STOPS flying Andi Peters and Jeff Brazier to luxury destinations to promote competitions amid job cuts
ITV has stopped sending Andi Peters and Jeff Brazier to far-flung locations across the globe such as the Maldives, South Africa and Thailand, to plug the broadcaster's competitions.
MailOnline understands that executives at the channel feel it's in 'bad taste' to continue flying presenters like Andi, 54, and Jeff, 46, to luxury overseas destinations after announcing hundreds of redundancies across ITV daytime shows Lorraine and Loose Women. This year alone, Andi has broadcast from the Maldives, Australia, Cape Town, and Florida, while Jeff has jet to Thailand, Sri Lanka and Malta, which according to insiders, has 'irritated' production staff who have since been told their roles are at risk. 'It's the way of the world, inflation is insane, cuts have to be made... a lot of my friends and colleagues on this show and at ITV have been there for decades, and I can't tell you how upsetting it was to see people walking around numb with shock and fear about what they were going to do.'
