Andi Peters on GMB today
Today’s edition of Good Morning Britain saw Andi appear on the show.
The 52-year-old presenter appeared to host a competition segment – from South Africa!
“Cape Town, what a beautiful city, and Andi’s in amongst it this morning,” Ben Shephard said as he introduced the competition segment.
“Good morning from the shadow of Table Mountain,” Andi said from South Africa. “As you can see, it’s an absolutely beautiful city.”
“I’m at the V&A Waterfront, which is the most visited attraction in South Africa,” he continued.
“I know I’m very lucky to do this job, but to see sights like that on a Monday morning, even sitting at home in Great Britain, you must enjoy and savour it,” he said.
He then told viewers how they could win up to £250,000 in the show’s competition.

As expected, viewers weren’t too happy with the fact that Andi had been flown halfway across the world to present a short competition segment.

“Why tf does Andi Peters have to go to Cape Town to advertise a competition?!” another GMB viewer asked.
“Andi Peters 2 min snippet for #gmb all the way from SA. #CarbonFootprint’s n all that aye,” a third wrote.

“Once again laughing in face of us @andipeters yet on another jolly,” another ranted.
“ITV burning money to send someone to South Africa to tell you how to win a car makes perfect sense in a cost of living crisis,” a fifth said.
