Good Morning Britain star Andi Peters announced a major change to the programme on Monday
A Good Morning Britain presenter has revealed a significant change to the programme.
Monday’s (May 18) instalment of the popular ITV show saw hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls return to the studio to present the most important headlines from across the UK and internationally.
They were accompanied by Kate Garraway, who covered the remainder of the day’s news, alongside Laura Tobin and Andi Peters, who provided weather and competition updates, respectively.
During the programme, Andi disclosed a major change to the ITV competition that left Susanna and Ed astonished.
“What a lovely way to start the week, because Andi, as it turns out, spent his May travel budget in the first two weeks of the month, and therefore he’s got to be here!” Ed playfully remarked, reports the Mirror.
Andi then responded: “I mean, I’ve been in more glamorous locations, it has to be said. How lovely to see you both on a Monday.”
The presenter then unveiled the reason for his studio appearance, stating: “I’ve got to tell you the reason I’m here, because we’re doing a style of competition we’ve never done before.”
While speaking directly to viewers through the camera, Andi continued: “Listen carefully at home – this is the big bit. You can see it on screen now. £115,000. I do cash all the time, it’s a huge amount of money. Life-changing amount of money launching on television today.
“But if you win, they win. Because if you win that prize of £115,000, I’m going to give somebody you know £10,000. So, of course, you could give it to your friend, to your brother.”
Susanna, who appeared visibly astonished by the alteration, exclaimed: “Love it!”
Andi went on: “The winner [gets to] choose. You could choose your neighbour,” before turning to Ed: “You could choose Susanna.”
“We can’t enter,” Susanna then made clear.
Andi wrapped up: “It’s something new today. £115,000 up for grabs. But remember if you win, somebody else wins, because we’ll give them £10,000 too. You choose,” before competition details were displayed on screen. ITV audiences can discover more by visiting itv.com/win.
