It seems as though Good Morning Britain viewers were left less than impressed on Wednesday’s show.<\/p>\n

08:13, 28 May 2025Updated 08:23, 28 May 2025<\/p>\n

Good Morning Britain viewers were seemingly unimpressed with Wednesday’s broadcast.<\/p>\n

During the show, entertainment correspondent Richard Arnold excitedly shared some exclusive news with ITV<\/a> audiences.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on a recent Peppa Pig storyline where Mummy Pig revealed her pregnancy, Richard announced: “Now we have another treat for you, straight from Peppatown, in their first TV interview as a family of five, it’s Daddy Pig on FaceTime!”<\/p>\n

The screen then split to reveal Daddy Pig who commented: “Let me just pop out of the room! We’ve just got the little one to down.”<\/p>\n

However, the segment didn’t sit well with viewers, many of whom dismissed it as ‘nonsense’ and inappropriate for a news programme, reports Bristol Live<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One viewer vented on social media: “But Peppa Pig takes more of a headline [sic]. Complaining to Ofcom”<\/p>\n

Another expressed frustration with: “With absolutely everything that’s f***ed up and going wrong with this country, one of your top 3 headliners is about an imaginary pig?!! Seriously , #GMB producers Need to get outside and speak to everyday folk-“.<\/p>\n

Someone else said: “W*f is with all these pepper pig stories? It’s a f*****g news show yet we have stories about a cartoon as if it’s real life.”<\/p>\n

A further comment from a disgruntled viewer read: “Enough with this Peppa Pig nonsense.” As one viewer remarked: “Dickie Arnold and Peppa Pig’s new sibling. I’m almost lost for words. Is that how much you think of your viewers? As someone once said, THAT is a disgrace!”<\/p>\n

Dismayed, another took to Twitter<\/a> to reel: “And this is what British news has come to..”<\/p>\n

Richard Arnold, during his interaction with Daddy Pig on ITV, offered his congratulations on the new family member, with Daddy Pig displaying a baby grow with the Good Morning Britain emblem on the front.<\/p>\n

It didn’t take long for the rest of the Pig family\u2014Mummy Pig, Peppa, George, and Evie\u2014to join in and have a chat with the GMB presenters.<\/p>\n

Mummy Pig mentioned they chose the name to honour her great aunt, overriding Peppa’s suggestion to name the newest addition ‘baby’.<\/p>\n

At the close of the segment, Susanna Reid and Richard Arnold reiterated their congratulations.<\/p>\n
