The programme then displayed a side-by-side image of two shots of the Himalayas overlooking a city. In one image, smog surrounds the mountains, while the other picture shows that the smog has cleared. We re seeing the Himalayas before and after, Lorraine says. You can see the split-screen there. That was before when it was just smog basically, and then look at that. Crystal-clear views. Remarkable isn t it?
However, eagle-eyed viewers of the show took to social media to highlight the fact that the images were edited.
Twitter users noticed that the exact same washing is on the line in both, and the exact same people can be seen in the corner of both images.
Scots broadcaster Lorraine Kelly s ITV talk show is being investigated after receiving over 100 complaints over a misleading photograph of the Himalayas aimed at highlighting how lockdown has changed the earth for the better. The broadcast regulator Ofcom is probing the debunking of the use of two pictures of famed mountain range featuring in a David Attenborough-fronted documentary claiming one was clearly photoshopped . The concerns surrounded shots of Himalayan pollution levels as the Scots journalist chatted to Mike Gunton, the executive producer of the BBC Natural History Unit documentary The Year Earth Changed narrated by David Attenborough. The before and after pictures were aimed at showing how once people could not see the range due to smog - but after lockdown there were clear views.

Lorraine Kelly s show has sparked complaints after it used a photo of the Himalayas illustrating how the lockdown had drastically reduced pollution - but it turned out to be photoshopped.
She discussed the pictures last month, amazed by how different the landscape looked before and after the lockdown, with the mountains on the horizon now visible, all the smog disappeared.
She was speaking to producer Mike Gunton, who created documentary The Year Earth Changed, when they discussed the striking images. We’re seeing the Himalayas before and after. Before people in Pakistan couldn’t see them, Lorraine said.
