Good Morning Britain host Richard Madeley became the talk of Twitter once again this morning, as viewers criticised a segment in which the presenter talked about the late Olivia Newton-John.
Grease star Olivia died on Monday aged 73 surrounded by her friends and family, leading to an outpouring of tributes from fellow stars including a heartfelt message from John Travolta. But as Richard paid tribute to Olivia on the ITV breakfast show, some watching at home were left less than impressed by his remarks.
“I wish I’d met her, I wish I’d interviewed her - it never happened. I always regretted it actually, as the years went by,” Richard started off by saying, before going on to comment on an iconic 70s poster of Olivia.
