I'm away so I can't actually watch the show, is Susanna back? If not who is in the studio?


Sean, Kate and Ranvir.

What had to happen one day arrived today, Kate and Ranvir and Charlotte to News.

Charlotte pushed under Ranvir now. I don't know why Ranvir is in today, she only normally does Thursday and Friday. It looks like Kate Garraway is now a main presenter. Rolling Eyes

Ranvir's there because John's no longer with the programme, and both Ben and Susanna are on holiday. There's only Sean left and you don't seriously think they're going to give him a chance at presenting, do you? That wouldn't at all fit with the 'Loose Women AM' programme they're turning Good Morning Britain into.

What we said is that Charlotte is here but not in the main presenter

I'm responding to this, TVDP.

Ranvir should be on headlines though, not Charlotte.

It seems Piers isn't joining GMB next month, so if Ben does go down to two days a week, I'd hope Charlotte's role gets increased. This seems unlikely though, Kate will probably become a main presenter.

Kate IS a main presenter. Don't you get this?

No, Kate is a stand in. The 'main' presenters are Susanna, Ben, Charlotte and (formerly) Sean.

Who are you to confirm who is and isn't a "main" presenter? Kate can hardly be called a stand-in, when she appears as much, or more that some of the others. Bosses are clearly pushing her back to the top, with the side-lining of Charlotte and Sean.

It does look like Charlotte is being side-lined with Kate and Ranvir taking centre-stage. The bosses must be going by viewer feedback, it is the only explanation. I would be pretty unhappy if I was Charlotte, since returning from maternity leave she is like a spare part.

As someone that doesn't watch the show too regularly, my interpretation is that Ben and Susanna have always been billed as main presenters (ie they were in the middle of PR shots, and who the hype was initially about) with Charlotte & Sean secondary presenters.

Kate is primary cover for Ben/Susanna, and Ranvir next in line to cover if both are off.
