ITV Good Morning Britain under fire as Ranvir Singh and Robert Rinder slammed by viewers for 'shambles' interview

Good Morning Britain has come under fire after viewers slammed its presenters Ranvir Singh and Robert Rinder. The TV personality and barrister, best known as Judge Rinder, has been at the forefront of the ITV breakfast programme for the last week.

Robert returned to the show on August 15 alongside Charlotte Hawkins after hosting the news programme earlier this year with Susanna Reid. Viewers have already seen Robert make it clear he 'doesn't care about getting in trouble' as he hasn't held back in his interviews with the likes of government ministers.

On Monday (August 22) the TV judge was joined by Ranvir Singh who is a regular host on the show. Whilst the pair were at the helm of the programme today, they were both hit with criticism after what was described as a 'shambles' interview.

Viewers hit out at the presenters for continuously interrupting their guests during a segment discussing the ongoing strikes.

Whilst discussing the walk outs at the UK's busiest port, Ranvir and Robert welcomed Miles Hubbard, a regional officer at United the Union, and Paul Davey, a spokesperson for the port of Felixstowe, onto the show.

Whilst Miles Hubbard began explaining the employees pay dispute, Ranvir interrupted to ask: "What is the average wage then if there's strikers today?".

As the Union officer attempted to answer, the presenter then continued: "Sorry to interrupt because you've both got places to be but just answer quickly the question about the allegation that you haven't put the pay offer to your members fully."

Elsewhere in the interview, Robert was also accused of speaking over the guests.

Viewers took to Twitter to share their anger at the interviewees being interrupted so many times in what they branded 'painful'.

@t_catttt wrote: "Absolute shambles of an interview from the two speaking to the man who who wants to work for fairness. Their views to him were ridiculous."

@djrustynail asked: "Why does #gmb get guests on the show, only to talk them down and interrupt them?"

@Chizzy227 tweeted: "This interview is painful," whilst @WAFCRob added: "Typically biased presenter with his constant rude interruptions."

@FlopsyPickle also commented: "Well this is a s**t show of an interview. Rob and Ranvir not only keeping talking over the guests, they are doing it over each other, it’s incredibly frustrating."
