Will be giving my first interview about the big Trump scoop to @reallorraine on @lorraine – whose studio is right next to @GMB ..

Lorraine Kelly said Piers Morgan was 'fired up' as he said he 'waited a year' to make his ITV return. The TV star hasn't been seen on the channel since shortly after his dramatic Good Morning Britain exit last March.
