BBC Breakfast tribute to Bill Turnbull
Speaking about her former colleague, Susanna said: “He mentored everybody on the programme, he was like the father of BBC Breakfast.
“He taught me everything, he taught so many of us everything about journalism, about television and about being a decent person in this industry… he was kind, compassionate and wise and a great friend and I loved every minute of being with him, I’m going to really miss him.”
