Good Morning Britain hit by Northern Lights photo 'prank' as Laura Tobin fooled by viewer's shot

Good Morning Britain and its weather presenter Laura Tobin fell victim to a Northern Lights photo prank on Monday, as they used as photo from a viewer of a location that clearly wasn't what it was claimed to be.

This weekend there was excitement for stargazers and anyone who'd been longing to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights for ages, when it was forecast that they would be visible in Scotland, Ireland and England on Sunday night. Those who cast their eyes to the skies were rewarded with some amazing views although some people had their enjoyment hampered by clouds.

An excited Laura invited GMB viewers to send their photos in of the views they caught of the Northern lights on Sunday night and one she drew attention to had been posted o9n Twitter by viewer Nick Harvey. Taking to the social media platform to share his image on Sunday, he wrote: "The #NorthernLights from Crowborough, East Sussex are taking my breath away."
