Bill Turnbull and Susanna Reid's 'effortless' relationship and cheeky on-air jokes

Susanna Reid shared a special partnership with former co-star Bill Turnbull, who sadly died on Wednesday aged 66 after a five-year battle with prostate cancer. The Good Morning Britain host and Bill's friendship shone on-screen with their effortless banter and cheeky jokes.

Susanna today described Bill as the "kindest, funniest, most generous man in the business", adding: "I feel lucky to have worked with him and he taught me everything. But above all, he was devoted to his family and I am heartbroken for them. RIP Bill. We will miss you so much."

The pair famously worked together on BBC Breakfast, where Bill appeared for more than 15 years before his departure in 2016. They were then reunited on the odd occasion for rival show GMB over the past few years.
