ITV Good Morning Britain viewers spot change and wonder if it's because of Richard Madeley

Good Morning Britain viewers were quick to spot a change to the programme and instantly thought it may be because of Richard Madeley.

The presenter has been back at the helm of the ITV news programme alongside Susanna Reid as they continue to bring updates on Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

But during part of Monday's edition of the show, viewers were distracted as the hosts slipped away from the desk and appeared in a different part of the studio.

Susanna, 51, and Richard 63, swapped the comfort of their seats for a couple of stools in front of TV screens as they interviewed guests on the programme.

Quickly taking note, @berniebernie64 tweeted: "#gmb why are they suddenly sitting on stools is it for more drama."

"Uhhm... why have Susanna and Alan moved onto bar stools and abandoned the massive desk all of a sudden?! #GMB," @UnInterlocutor commented referring to Richard as Alan due to many often pointing out his likeness to Alan Partridge.

There was a change in the GMB studio (ITV)

@RichardKawalec complained: "@GMB what's the idea of Madeley and Reid getting off their seats and sitting on stools to conduct an interview. Looked painful and amateurish."

"By the way NOT a good idea to sit on stools, looks very out of place. NO not interested in what you are talking about all just different opinions nothing concrete," @sjashley1 shared.

While another, according to the Daily Star tweeted: "At least they're sitting on stools to interview about serious issues now, instead of Susanna leaning and lolling on the table clutching her mug, and Richard fidgeting and posing - still fiddling with his pen and script and jotting while the guest is speaking though!"
