ITV James Martin Saturday Morning fans have said they "have to laugh" after the chef was clapped off the show today. ITV returned with another edition of the chef's weekly breakfast programme on September 28, with the programme airing from 9.30am.

Today, James served up a feast of delicious food for comedian Lucy Beaumont and pianist Alexis Ffrench, while there are recipes from chefs Meliz Berg and Ronnie Murray. But the end of the show drew criticism from those who were tuning in.

Taking to Twitter, now X, a fan typed: "Do have to laugh when they clap James Martin for every meal he cobbles together on his show. That’s literally his job. Imagine being in the office and all your colleagues clapping every time you press send on an e-mail."

"I mean.. come onnn James. Baked Aubergine with parmesan, stuffed with sultanas.. That IS NOT food," another fumed. " @sat_jamesmartin why does everything being cooked on the program always and I mean always contain either " a little bit or a nice little bit " of whatever is in the recipe. ? Its all I hear of your recipes now," asked another.

Another typed: "You naughty boy James. I have eaten my screen. JH." Reflecting on today's episoe, another posted a message to Alexis French and said: "@AlexisFfrench wonderful hearing you speaking on @sat_jamesmartin there about bringing transformative musical experiences to young people! Our students @HarrisFed loved their afternoon with you. @RTMusicUK can we do this again please"

"Just watching you with James Martin, and you mentioned your in-laws Les & Jean we have met them many times holidaying in Lanzarote lovely people. Good Luck with the tour," another typed. Another said: "Good finish to a fantastic week. Thanks James and the Gang. Really enjoyed the laughs this week. JH."

"Can't lie I love James Martin," another wrote. " @sat_jamesmartin amazing food and guests as usual, but does anyone else think Alexis Ffrench looks like Howard from the Halifax ads? I do wonder where my head is sometimes," wrote another.
