Loose Women fans were not happy with the ITV programme earlier this week as the panel discussed topics including whether they'd be willing to pay for an expensive funeral.
Jane Moore hosted the debate while Linda Robson, Sophie Morgan and Gloria Hunniford joined the panel.
The Loose Women panel welcomed Dragon's Den entrepreneur Deborah Meaden in the studio and discussed topics including the song they'd like played at their funeral and EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy's admission that she had once gone three days without a shower
However, ITV viewers felt it was time the programme took a break and blasted the funeral discussion as "miserable".

"Daily I'm reading stories about cast falling out it's time ITV drop this programme and save thousands of pounds. #LooseWomen," a third added and another shared: "This Dreadful Show need to stop airing on our Television screens it’s passed the expiration date #LooseWomen."
Elsewhere, on this week's Loose Women, panellist Brenda Edwards broke down in tears as the ITV show paid tribute to her late son Jamal Edwards a year after his death.

In the clip, Brenda said: "This last year has been one big massive rollercoaster ride and considering I don't really like rollercoasters, I have to be honest, with all the support I've had, everything has been bittersweet.
"I don't think you can really put it into words. It's good to have Tanesha here and have her around because we're going through it together. I try my best not to show her my upset, she tries her best not to show me but then there's times when we're both upset together."
The panel all wore blue in honour of Jamal as Brenda explained her son was a Chelsea supporter and a "true blue".
