Eamonn Holmes mocks Piers Morgan for his delay in the studio

Eamonn Holmes amused himself a bit with Piers Morgan after having had to rush at the last minute to sit on the set of Good Morning Britain.

Piers arrived at the studio on Tuesday morning with only four seconds to spare after being stopped to chat with a makeup artist before going on the air.

Good Morning Britain shared Piers' clip, usually punctual, which seemed anxious and received a microphone very quickly.

Her co-host, Susanna Reid, moved her by saying, "Four seconds before the air, it was the stage in the studio."

Piers replied, "I have never missed a plane. Never missed an antenna time. I had a good old conversation with the makeup artist.

"I was there, someone came casually and said," Yeah, 40 seconds until we're on the air. "

"I went," What ?! "

You would never know it since Piers was at its usual location on the left side of the screen when the program started.

Eamonn Holmes, presenter of the show This morning, also witnessed the fun side of the situation. He joked that the late entry of Piers was a small fries compared to him.

He tweeted, "Getting to the studio early is like getting to an airport early – a waste of time. 4 seconds before transmission? Believe me, it's not going very well.

"I could read the newspaper at that time. Honestly, young people today. "

He added: "Some people have to get ready, others are born ready. I could write a book on it. All that matters is when the red light is on. '

Sky News weather presenter Nazaneen Ghaffar also confirmed his story: "It's so true! I can testify to the number of times Eamonn sat down literally while the camera made him headlines. "

Good Morning Britain airs on weekdays from 6am on ITV
