Richard Madeley could have been in the right place at the right time as he reveals he suffered a fall as he arrived for work on Good Morning Britain. Instead of heading to the ITV studio for the latest edition of the news programme on Monday (December 12), the presenter and co-host Kate Garraway headed to a North West hospital.
While Ranvir Singh held the fort solo in the studio, Richard and Kate headed to host the show live from Whiston Hospital in Merseyside. The show's own Dr Amir Khan and Dr Hilary Jones were also at one of the busiest hospitals in the North-West to shed light on the current pressures facing the NHS frontline, ahead of possible strike action this week and next.
GMB were given unprecedented access to areas of the hospital which would not encroach upon patient care or privacy. From the ambulance station to the specialist frailty unit, Kate, Richard and Dr Amir spoke to staff from a number of departments, who gave a genuine insight into what is happening on the frontline.
