This Morning legend Dr Chris makes rare ITV appearance to mark milestone moment

Long before she became one of the most popular and well-known presenters on This Morning, Josie Gibson found TV fame in an entirely different way.

And it seems that his longtime GMB co-host Kate could be joining him on the This Morning sofas.
