Dan Walker 'storms off' GMB as he pokes fun at Piers Morgan's heated exit

BBC have reportedly been left feeling uneasy as the search continues for Dan Walker's successor. The former BBC Breakfast star's replacement has reportedly already been chosen, according to reports.

Piers Morgan, 57, was described by a member of his team who'd reached out to Jack Monroe as a "huge fan" of her work - but she claims that Piers had hit the block button on her on Twitter years ago, ironically telling her she was banned from his show for life.The activist, who has racked up more than half a million followers, was skeptical about the new approach - and she took to social media to tell the world that the man known for campaigning against cancel culture had tried to cancel her.She published a letter apparently sent by Piers' team to her - alongside the notification that she had been blocked - and wrote sarcastically: "He's a huge fan".Jack added a smirking emoji to punctuate her feelings.The letter she had received asked her: "Are you interested in coming onto Piers Morgan's new show Piers Morgan Uncensored soon?"It continued: "The show is really keen to cover the cost of living crisis - of course."Jack writes in her Twitter profile that she has been a past user of food banks and is now an activist campaigning to end poverty, so concerns around rapidly accelerating costs for British people is her area of expertise.Piers' rep then added: "Also bring your recipes and approach to our global audience."Piers would love to have you.

Piers Morgan, 57, who has recently launched his new TV show, Piers Morgan: Uncensored.The Loose Women panellist warned she was “not frightened” of the former Good Morning Britain star as she admitted her satisfaction over his new programme “bombing”.Piers has been dealt with a blow after seeing his TalkTV show take a dive in ratings.The first instalment of the programme boasted more than 400,000 viewers and became an instant hit.However, the momentum was soon lost as his figures have dropped significantly since April.Monitoring the ratings, TV critic and broadcaster Scott Bryan tweeted: "Piers Morgan Uncensored continues to experience some of his lowest overnight ratings yet."His first episode in April had 317,000 viewers. Last night’s episode had *just* 32,000 viewers, a tenth of that."Denise reflected on Piers’ show’s fast decline in ratings, confessing she was “happy” to see it had lost momentum.She said: “Sometimes I can’t help it and I’m sorry, I’m not a vengeful person, but when I saw that his show was bombing, was I happy? Yeah!”Denise’s observation follows a long-standing feud between the pair after Piers branded her a “Covid-denier” after she pointed out the “horrendous collateral damage” lockdowns could have in people’s wellbeing.Recounting the pair’s row over the coronavirus pandemic, Denise said: “He’s [Piers Morgan] had digs about me.

BBC Breakfast, as staff are said to be "uneasy" that Dan Walker's replacement has already been chosen - despite applications being ongoing.Dan Walker left the programme after more than a decade last month to make a move to rival network Channel 5 News.And since then, bosses have been battling to find an adequate replacement for the star, with external applications invited on the BBC website.Though the deadline for applications closed on May 24, interviews are said to still be ongoing for the role, and no official replacement has yet been announced.However, a BBC source has now confirmed exclusively to Daily Star that staff have been left feeling "awkward" behind-the-scenes, as bosses seem to have rushed into the "hasty" decision to make Jon Kay Dan's replacement.They confirmed: "Much as everyone thinks Jon Kay is the heir apparent for Dan's job, there has been some uneasiness that the 'header' picture for the official BBC Breakfast Twitter account has been changed in the last few days (while the process is still ongoing) to include Jon as one of the four main stars."It's perhaps fair enough as he has been part of the 'family' for months, but some of those within the BBC are still vying for the job and feel it's now already been decided."They added: "Some of those candidates also wonder if the show bosses could have waited a few more weeks before doing it."Despite Jon being "well liked" in the studio, it has made certain people feel "uneasy".Our insider said: "There is a bit of awkwardness that the bosses have put Jon in this situation.

Good Morning Britain fans were baffled over a question Richard Madeley asked one of ITV's reporters during the latest episode. The presenter and co-host Susanna Reid were back at the helm of the news programme on Wednesday (June 15).

Susanna Reid could not fight back the tears on Tuesday’s episode of Good Morning Britain (June 14).The host was joined by David Badilli and Manny Ruiz, who were both deeply affected by the Grenfell Tower tragedy which ruined the lives of many five years ago.Brave David, had been a firefighter at the scene and was taken with resting many who were trapped in the burning blaze.He had been tasked with rescuing Manny’s 12-year-old niece Jessie - who sadly did not make it out alive from the devastating fire.David was sent to the 20th floor to bring the young girl to safety but she had travelled to the top of building to get away from the flames and had no way out.Jessie's tragedy brought the two men closer together and they are now close friends with the pair appearing on the ITV programme sharing their account of awful situation together.The heartbreaking story left Susanna emotional and in tears and she commended the twosome for their "courage" and "bravery".Becoming choked up as she addressed the two men, she said: "I can see how hard it is to hear… it’s hard for me and all I did was report on it here in the studio."Susanna went on: "I can’t imagine how hard it is for you to listen, I know you’re friends you and David, and David at the time, you didn’t realise you were looking for your friend’s niece."But to find out someone was in the building trying to get Jessica back and she’d done what she thought was the safe thing to do, meant she was getting further into danger.
