Good Morning Britain’s interview with Patsy Stevenson was accused of being ‘weak’ after hosts Ben Shephard and Susanna Reid failed to ask her about the break from the lockdown.
Today was the first Monday of the ITV show since Piers Morgan’s abrupt exit from the Meghan Markle debacle last week, in which the 55-year-old Piers walked off the set after his fight with his co-star Alex Beresford.
Susanna Reid was joined by Ben, who usually joins her on Thursdays and today’s big guest was Patsy Stevenson, the woman who was arrested in South London after attending a vigil for the murdered Sarah Everard.
Patsy said she was terrified during her ordeal of arrest on Clapham Common on Saturday night while showing solidarity, admitting that she “didn’t know why she was pushed to the ground so hard.”
Images of her ordeal shocked the nation, yet viewers were quick to ask why Ben and Susanna didn’t question her about her trip, considering there is a ‘Stay Home’ coronavirus message, restricting travel. .
They also wanted to know why he did not cooperate with the police when they asked him to leave.
Twitter was filled with comments when people pointed out that she broke the rules.

One said, “Susanna and Ben are weak! They would probably ask different questions if @piersmorgan It was there!”
Another added: “If Piers had been there, that interview with Patsy would have been different. #GMB.”

One viewer didn’t hold back, adding: “OMG, OMG, OMG, @ITV and @GMB need to write a book on how to kill a leading TV show in a week. This is painful … this became a social day of OAP BRING BACK PIERS “.
Yet another said: “#GMB it feels so much better without Piers. People seem to be able to utter a word in the margins. “
