This Morning presenters Martin Lewis and Josie Gibson fronted the show in early March and the Money Saving Expert went down an absolute storm with viewers.
Martin stepped into the presenting gap, 21 years after he made his show debut. And the Twitter hashtag was alight with praise, with some asking why Martin wasn’t given the full-time presenting job.
This Morning presenters in shake-up as Martin Lewis fronts show
Opening the show at the time, Josie welcomed Martin. Martin then reflected on his first ever appearance on the show more than 20 years ago. After a clip from Martin’s first appearance in 2003 played, he said: “I remember that day because I had wanted to be on This Morning for a couple of years. I did that show and I was pretty pleased, it went well.
“They called me up afterwards and said, ‘do you want to come on every week?’ And I cried. Now 21 years later…”
Following his stint, Martin said on X today: “And I’m done. Now to run home. Thanks to the team and the viewers for indulging my bucket-list wish to present @thismorning. I really enjoyed it. The gear changes can be tricky, but the 150mins just flew by. Hope it was a reasonable watch.”
Welcome @MartinSLewis! Can you believe it’s been 21 years since your first #ThisMorning job? It must be said, you haven’t aged a bit! pic.twitter.com/Nu9dbfP6t9
