Towards the end of the show, the pair spoke to commentators Gillian Keegan and Kevin Maguire about the day’s news, before handing over to Lorraine Kelly.

Just before GMB went off-air, Susanna revealed that she will be taking some time off over half term next week, but will be back the following week.

“Kevin, Gillian, thank you very much indeed. Good Morning Britain is back tomorrow from six, now it’s time to join Lorraine. And I’ll see you after half term,” she said, with Ed adding: “And me. See you soon.”
