You have been had.
My tip do research, research and research things like this.
Its the same with Martin Lewis saying cryptocurrency is a way to invest and he got Facebook to take action on the adverts.0 -
R Langform is off QVC.
Good morning is actually GMTV, an old programme at breakfastime on channel 3.
Good Morning Britain is another old one to do with TVam. (this one was good) it was on channel 3.0 -
Ruth Langford is still on This Morning with her husband Eamonn Holmes, a few times a week on ITV.
Ben Shephard, Kate Garaway, Piers Morgan and Susannah Reid are on Good Morning Britain, still on daily, on ITV.You can tell a lot about a woman by her hands..........for instance, if they are placed around your throat, she's probably slightly upset.0 -
I don't think Ruth Langford has ever presented on GMB (Good Morning Britain) which is current as Morglin says.
Re This Morning:
She and her husband take over from the main presenters (Willoughby & Schofield) when they are on holiday and most Fridays.
OP
Are you sure the item was really an endorsement?
Could it have been just an interview with someone involved in cryptocurrency and Ruth just had a go at buying and selling during the segment?
How long ago was this broadcast?0 -

There is a link above that explains it all, as does the last few posts. The presenters have nothing to do with it, the 'advert' is made up of screen grabs and re edited. It is exactly the same as the Martin Lewis ones endorsing dodgy crypto currency.

I think what the OP is alleging is different.
I understand that some unscrupulous companies use images of well known people to advertise their wares.
The OP is saying that he actually saw Ruth Langsford actually buying and selling cryptocurrency.
I'm not saying it's not dodgy.
Just trying to get to the bottom of what the OP actually saw.
I have a vague recollection of seeing something like the OP said he saw on This Morning.
If he saw the same thing as me, it clearly wasn't an endorsement.
Or maybe that clip (as opposed to image) was misrepresented later by this company.0 -

I think it is the same thing, a released video allegedly of a clip from a popular TV show , these light morning programmes do not do financial endorsements .I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
