Susanna Reid reveals her favourite Good Morning Britain moment as show gears up for 10th anniversary
Susanna Reid's most memorable 'Good Morning Britain' moment came just seconds before the launch episode went live.
The ITV show will turn 10 years old on Sunday (28.04.24), and the anniversary will be marked on Monday's (29.04.24) episode from 6am, and Susanna has recalled one of her favourite memories from fronting 'GMB' occurred as she and Ben Shephard prepared to go live for the first time alongside Charlotte Hawkins and Sean Fletcher.
Susanna said: "The first one has to be the launch.
"I remember sitting next to the wonderful Ben Shephard, who just as the opening credits were rolling whispered, 'You'll never get a second chance to enjoy this moment, because this is the only moment we'll ever launch this programme, 'Good Morning Britain', on ITV to the nation. So enjoy every second of it.'
"You can be quite nervous when you're presenting a new programme as there's a lot of pressure, lots of responsibility and there is obviously lots of media attention.
"And when he said that, I just thought, 'You're absolutely right!' In that moment when the music's running - yes, just enjoy it! So that's such a memorable moment for me."
Susanna also admitted being part of the coverage of Queen Elizabeth's funeral, and interviewing former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, were part of her memorable moments, and Charlotte has recalled the "sense of anticipation" on launch day.
She added: "There have been so many stand-out moments over the years.
"From that very first morning where we all sat round the desk with such a sense of anticipation of being there to launch a brand-new show, and all that was to come.
"There have been the breaking news stories, the emotional and inspiring interviewees, those with extraordinary stories.
"But for me, it has to be the time Hollywood came to 'GMB' and I was asked to appear in Bradley Cooper’s film Burnt, and I got to interview him about it. A moment I will never forget."
Good Morning Britain’s 10th Anniversary is Sunday 28th April. Watch GMB weekdays from 6am on ITV1 and ITVX
