What did GMB fans say about Richard on Twitter?

Well, if we were Judy Finnigan‘s other half, we’d steer clear of Twitter.

One said: “Richard Madeley adds zero value to #GMB. Why is he still on here?”

Another urged: “Please don’t watch #GMB when the insulting and unprofessional Richard Madeley is on.

“It’s the only way @GMB will get the message that the majority of people think he’s not fit for purpose!”

A third called out Richard’s interrupting.

They said: “Why does Richard Madeley interrupt every single guest #gmb are interviewing?

“I wish I was joking, every single guest he’s interviewed this week, he’s interrupted. It isn’t even cross examining, it’s just rude,” they claimed.

“Why does Richard not let Susanna have a WORD in when they’re interviewing people? He’s so rude!! #replacehim,” thy commented.

“He likes the sound of his own voice,” another viewer replied.

“Why do you bother getting politicians on – ask them a question and as soon as they start to answer the self-opinionated two just talk over them?” asked another.

They added: “OFF button employed until Ben and Kate are on!”

“When are you going to drop Richard Madeley?” asked another.

“Inappropriate comments. Constantly trying sarcasm. Just get Ben or Adil [Ray] on,” they added.
