Susanna was happy to have Rob with her on the show today, as she made very clear at the beginning of this morning’s show.
“It’s lovely to have you with us this morning, Rob,” she said. “And particularly to actually draw on your expertise.”
The duo then went on to discuss increased Russian military action happening in Ukraine at the moment.
How did viewers react to Judge Rob Rinder on GMB?
Plenty of GMB viewers took to Twitter to praise Rob and his stint co-hosting the show with Susanna.
“If you’re looking for a male producer to partner Susanna Reid then give the job to Rob Rinder the best yet in my opinion,” one viewer said.
“Glad to see Rob Rinder back, his calm and gentle style of presenting is much needed right now. Not Adil [Ray] screeching and talking over guests as he cosplays Piers… and fails,” another said.
“Thank chuff, Robert Rinder on #GMB today. Nobody needs Richard Madeley on days like this,” a third wrote.
“#GMB Rob Rinder for the job please,” another begged.
“Great to see Rob Rinder on the show. You need to have him on more often. Permanently would work,” a fifth said.
Not everyone was a fan though.
“#robrinder out of place in my opinion,” one viewer said.
Susanna on GMB presenter roulette

As well as Rob, Richard, and Adil, Susanna has also presented the show alongside the likes of Ed Balls, Bill Turnbull, Richard Bacon, Alastair Campbell, and Martin Lewis too.
During an appearance on Lorraine on Monday (February 28), Susanna joked that her rotating co-hosts was like “TV Tinder”.
“Now, when you are presenting right now, it’s a little bit like speed dating,” Lorraine Kelly said. “There has been a fair few fellas.”

“It must be quite difficult – because you’ve got to have a good rapport with someone,” Lorraine said.
“It’s important that, whoever’s on screen, the relationship has to work,” Susanna said.
“They [her co-hosts] are all talented in their own ways and they’ve all got a wealth of experience to bring to the programme,” she continued.
“It’s a privilege working with them all.”
