A second commented: “Love watching you both, especially as you hold people to account and challenge them.”
Another added: “You two are absolutely amazing, no one could do a better job than you pair.”

Is Piers leaving GMB?
Ahead of the summer, Piers joked he may leave GMB next year as Susanna revealed contract negotiations are still “underway” for 2021.
He said at the time: “We have two more days left, then you’ll all be glad to see the back of us. Not forever, we’ll be back in September.”
Susanna replied: “For now! Whenever you say we’re off and we’re leaving…”
Piers exclaimed: “Morgan quits! Good riddance!”
