Richard Madeley and Ranvir Singh were back on Thursday’s Good Morning Britain to discuss the latest news headlines
Richard Madeley was forced to halt Good Morning Britain and cut an interview short on Thursday following a sound blunder.
Richard and his co-host Ranvir Singh were chatting with Miranda actress Sally Phillips about the education crisis in schools when the mishap took place.
The GMB host went to speak to guest Daniel Kebede via video link, but after suffering a sound issue, he had to pause and apologise.
“I am terribly sorry to interrupt you,” Richard said cutting Daniel off. “We have got a problem on our line, we are getting a lot of interference and we can’t really hear what you are saying.”
“We are going to try and fix that problem and come back to you,” he added, reports the Mirror.
The duo continued to chat with Sally as they tried to fix the technical blunder. After speaking with the actress in the studio, Ranvir and Richard cut once again to Daniel from the National Education Union, who explained what needed to be done about the crisis.
Richard began: “What needs to be done? How can we fix this?”
“There needs to be urgent investment, there has not been enough investment in schools, they are in crisis,” Daniel replied.
“The last education secretary recognised that and that is absolutely what our young people need.”
Sally, in another part of the conversation, highlighted that more than half of children with special educational needs are not attending school due to unmet requirements.
She expressed to the hosts: “The system isn’t working for anyone. It certainly doesn’t work for the children, it doesn’t work for teachers, it just doesn’t work for anyone.
“There is a recent report suggesting that 40 percent of parent carers have considered suicide and yet the….”
Richard, taken aback, responded: “What? ” as Sally reiterated: “Yes, 40 percent.”
She continued to point out that the system is “underfunded” before sharing: “I have three kids who are all neurodiverse and have different needs.”
