Good Morning Britain's Kate Garraway delivers moving opening statement as show breaks with tradition

Kate Garraway delivered a moving opening to Good Morning Britain as the show broke with tradition to air on Sunday, as The Queen's coffin was due to leave Balmoral.

While, in the aftermath o f The Queen's death on Thursday, ITV took the decision to pull programmes like Lorraine, This Morning and Loose Women, GMB went ahead on Friday morning and, in an unexpected move from the broadcaster, aired live again on Saturday, with Ben Shephard and Susanna Reid at the helm.

Kate appeared on Saturday's show from outside Buckingham Palace to react to King Charles III's first address to the nation the night earlier. The presenter said she felt the 'very real' emotion in the new monarch's speech, praising him for 'reassuring the country' in difficult times.
