Judge Rinder has been back on GMB for a day and viewers are already calling for his return.
The ITV star is the latest guest host to fill in for Richard Madeley.
Richard is taking some time off for the rest of the year and is rumoured to be heading into I’m A Celebrity.
When the show began, Rob told Susanna Reid that he felt “intimidated” about hosting the show.
However, Susanna was quick to point out that guests will feel the same being grilled by a barrister.
“They should be afraid,” he replied.

As the show went on, viewers rushed to social media to compliment the star on the job he was doing.
The judge wasn’t afraid to let his views be known, as he hit out at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as well as grilling Sajid Javid.
