Good Morning Britain viewers are all saying the same thing about Ed Balls – and it could be bad news for Richard Madeley
RICHARD Madeley may wish to look away now – because Good Morning Britain viewers reckon there’s a new star in town.
Many have been bowled over with Strictly Come Dancing legend Ed Balls’ performance on the ITV show this week.
Ed Balls has been filling in for Richard Madeley on Good Morning Britain
The former Strictly star has been hosting alongside Susanna Reid
Several sung the praises of the former Labour MP – who has been filling in for Richard – on Twitter.
The 55-year-old former Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer won particular acclaim yesterday for grilling deputy PM Dominic Raab.
One appreciative viewer wrote: “Nice to see Ed Balls rinse Raab on #GMB.”
Richard, 65, usually hosts the breakfast programme from Monday to Wednesday, but has been missing from screens since Tuesday.

On Monday Richard presented solo in the studio while Susanna reported from the Poland-Ukrainian border.
But the TV legend has been replaced by Ed, who has fronted the show with Susanna, 51, since.
