Susanna, 51, and Richard 63, swapped the comfort of their seats for a couple of stools in front of TV screens as they interviewed guests on the programme.
Quickly taking note, @berniebernie64 tweeted: "#gmb why are they suddenly sitting on stools is it for more drama."
"Uhhm... why have Susanna and Alan moved onto bar stools and abandoned the massive desk all of a sudden?! #GMB," @UnInterlocutor commented referring to Richard as Alan due to many often pointing out his likeness to Alan Partridge.
@RichardKawalec complained: "@GMB what's the idea of Madeley and Reid getting off their seats and sitting on stools to conduct an interview. Looked painful and amateurish."
"By the way NOT a good idea to sit on stools, looks very out of place. NO not interested in what you are talking about all just different opinions nothing concrete," @sjashley1 shared.
While another, according to the Daily Star tweeted: "At least they're sitting on stools to interview about serious issues now, instead of Susanna leaning and lolling on the table clutching her mug, and Richard fidgeting and posing - still fiddling with his pen and script and jotting while the guest is speaking though!"
