SUSANNA REID
What are you looking forward to the most about being back on our screens after the
summer?
Susanna: “I can’t wait to be back on the GMB sofa reporting on all the breaking news stories
of the day. I really enjoy how our viewers interact with us on Twitter throughout the
morning so I’m looking forward to hearing from them. It’ll also be great to catch up with all
the team after the summer holidays and of course see my fabulous cohost Piers Morgan!”
Who would be your ideal sofa guest for September?
Susanna: “I would love to have Barack and Michelle Obama on the GMB sofa. Also since
we’ve spoken to Donald Trump on the show I’d love Hillary Clinton to come on at some
point too.”
What has been your most memorable show so far this year?
Susanna: “The morning of the EU referendum result was a particularly memorable show.
We stayed on air an hour extra, until 9.30am, bringing our audience the breaking news and
biggest stories of the morning. I also questioned Nigel Farage on one of the Leave campaign
promises that £350m in savings from leaving the EU would go to the NHS. He said this
wasn't going to happen during the interview and footage from the interview was shared on
social media millions of times."

LORRAINE Who would be your ideal sofa guest for September?
Lorraine: “My ideal sofa guests aren't always the big A listers although obviously I love
talking to my favourites, Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep. Often it is viewers who have done
something incredibly brave or life changing, or have made a difference. I would, however,
dearly love to interview Amal Clooney to find out what it is like being married to George and
how she has taken to her new life of worldwide stardom, while still being a successful
lawyer in her own right.”
What are you looking forward to the most about being back on our screens?
Lorraine: “I enjoy the the interaction with viewers, finding out what they enjoy, what they
want from the show and getting their opinions. I also love all of my fabulous gangs, on
screen and behind the cameras. You are only as good as your team, and my team are the
best of the best.”
What has been your most memorable show so far this year?
Lorraine: “That's a tough one. I enjoyed our week long special with a live audience of
viewers in the studio. I also was beside myself to interview former astronaut Buzz Aldrin. I
watched him walk on the moon when I was six years old and it was just incredible to meet
him in person.
“I also found it very moving to talk to Alison Ross live on the show on the 20th anniversary
of the Dunblane massacre where 16 little children and their teacher were shot dead in the
local primary school. I first met Alison when she was just a little baby when I spoke privately
with her mum Pam, whose elder daughter Joanna, was one of those shot dead aged just
five. I've kept in touch with the family ever since and watched Alison grow into a lovely
young woman who now has a baby of her own.”
