GMB chaos as Bill Turnbull suffers awkward gaffe during show

Good Morning Britain was sent into chaos this morning after presenter Bill Turnbull lost his earpiece during the advert break.

Bill, who is stepping in this week for Piers Morgan while he’s on holiday, misplaced the earpiece during the ad break and had the entire ITV team including co-host Susanna Reid trying to help him find it.

But the show couldn’t be halted and as it came back on air Bill turned to Susanna and asked, “you sure you haven’t got it?”, as she burst into laughter.

Susanna explained to the audience that the reason they were in hysterics was because Bill had lost his earpiece during the break.

She told the audience: “You know they call Wednesdays hump days? Well, Bill is really having one of those Wednesdays.

“So you forgot your contacts and were having trouble reading…”

Bill interrupted: “Yes, I forgot to put my contacts in so I’m having to put glasses on and then my earpiece popped out during the break and now we can’t find it anywhere.

“The entire team, the thousands of people that work here were trying to help us find it.”

The camera then showed a flashback of what happened during the break as people desperately looked around the desk to try and find Bill’s earpiece.

Susanna continued: “If you think we staged this we absolutely did not. This what just happened in the break.

“It’s a tiny little earpiece, its about the size of a five pence piece or a peanut.”

Bill then joked and asked the viewers to also look behind their sofas and TVs “just in case it’s there”.

A crew member then spotted the earpiece between the paperwork in front of Bill and rushed over to the desk to pull it out from between Bill’s script.

Fans were loving the gaffe and rushed to Twitter to share their thoughts on the hilarious moment.

One wrote: “He’s so loveable. Would like to see him co-host on Thursday and Friday when Piers comes back.”

A second tweeted: “This is the longest I’ve kept GMB on! Such a better atmosphere with Bill Turnball just lovely to watch!”

Another commented: “I have loved watching Bill this week. So much fun. Such a gentleman. Please come back soon.”

A fourth said: “Oh bless him he’s so cute,” followed by a laughing emoji.

Good Morning Britain continues tomorrow at 6am tomorrow on ITV.
