Richard Madeley has returned to Good Morning Britain after a break saw him replaced by Ed Balls. The presenter has been missing from the ITV1 show, which he often hosts alongside Susanna Reid, for two weeks.
The 66-year-old returned on Monday, March 6 and explained his absence on the programme was due to a "freak accident" that led to an operation. Richard remained off screens while he recovered.
Welcoming Richard back to the show, Susanna said: "You appear to have made a full recovery." Explaining his absence, the presenter said: "I had a freak accident, basically I was crouching down on a slope between my open car door, and I was just fiddling around with something at the bottom of the car door.
