  • Richard Madeley revealed on Monday's Good Morning Britain that he suffered a double fracture of his wrist after falling on a loose pavement in France.
  • Susanna Reid introduced the show and acknowledged Madeley's injury, to which he responded with a joke about whether he had a good break.
  • Madeley quipped, "I'm not discussing the pain threshold. We don't think about pain," when Reid asked if his injury was sore.
  • This isn't the first time Madeley has discussed falling; in December 2022, he slipped while getting out of his car when presenting live from Whiston Hospital.
  • On the same episode, Madeley and Reid discussed Greta Thunberg’s aid boat being boarded by Israeli forces while travelling to Gaza.
