Good Morning Britain fans claimed to "turn over'" minutes into the show as they issued the same complaint.
During Wednesday's (August 20) instalment of the ITV show, presenters Adil Ray and Kate Garraway brought audiences the most recent developments from Britain and beyond.
Sean Fletcher was also present in the studio to deliver additional daily headlines, whilst Laura Tobin provided regular weather forecasts.
Kate and Adil informed audiences about asylum seekers facing eviction from hotels, alongside the additional service fees accompanying pub purchases.
They also encountered a mother advocating for stricter regulations concerning young motorists following the death of her 17-year-old son in a tragic vehicle collision, reports the Mirror.

However, programme watchers swiftly became exasperated by the presenter selection and a fierce discussion regarding the government's asylum accommodation proposals.
"I can usually watch this but this is just unwatchable," one individual posted on X (formerly Twitter), whilst another contributed: "45 minutes of ITV nonsense."
A third commented: "Goodness, the show is a tough listen these days," with a fourth viewer likewise stating: "Kate and Adil, thanks for the heads up, time to turn over. No chance."
A fifth supporter reinforced the opinion, declaring: "GMB is so out of touch with the views of the British public, that's why GMB is sinking quicker than the Titanic."

The news comes after ITV viewers "switched off" just minutes into GMB earlier this week. Adil returned to the show after several weeks away, with several fans sharing their frustrations.
The Citizen Khan star was also involved in a tense interview with Joey Essex after he took several brutal swipes at the reality star.
Adil notably called Joey a "baked bean" ahead of his upcoming boxing debut, before questioning how much money he'd receive for taking part in the match.
Viewers rapidly flocked to social media platforms to express their unease, with one individual posting: "I've just watched the worst interview ever recorded on TV. Adil Ray trying to be funny and belittling Joey Essex. Cringe."

Channel 5 was advised 'not to run' royal series despite high ratings
EXCLUSIVE: Channel 5 has produced several shows around the Royal Family over the years, but there was one that could have nearly not aired Channel 5 was told to steer clear of broadcasting a television programme about the Royal Family, it has emerged. The broadcaster has screened numerous detailed programmes about the Royals through the years, ranging from documentaries examining Royal residences to shows exploring Zara and Mike Tindall, alongside Prince Edward. Programmes including Secrets of the Royals and Lip-Reading the Royals: The Secret Conversations have offered viewers an insider's glimpse into behind-the-scenes activities, yet there was one television programme that nearly didn't make it to air. Ben Frow, Channel 5's Director of Programming, disclosed that he approached the King and Queen 's communications officer to discuss whether he could provide information for a TV show During a question and answer segment at the Edinburgh TV festival, Ben explained that he had been transparent about the "fantastic numbers" that certain controversial Royals, such as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, achieve for Channel 5. "I fessed up and I said, 'Look, Andrew, Harry, and Meghan still deliver fantastic numbers for us'," Ben informed the Mirror and other media outlets. "I made my position clear [about Harry and Meghan] and they didn't say don't do anything, but in an email a couple of weeks later, he said, 'I'd rather you didn't'." He went on to reveal that the communications officer shot down his request for inside information, reports Gloucestershire Live. Ben continued: "It was about Royal Service, and we asked him if he could help us get something on the Royal Family, and he said, 'It's not in my job description'." Harry and Meghan have long been a topic of debate among the public, particularly since their decision to step down as senior royals in 2020 and move to the US. The duo have ventured into reality TV with their Netflix series Harry and Meghan, but they've also been the subject of numerous documentaries, including Channel 5's Harry and Meghan: What Next? and Meghan and Harry: The Rise and Fall. However, they're not the only contentious figures in the Royal Family. Harry's uncle, Prince Andrew, the younger brother of King Charles III, has also proven to be divisive over recent years This has led to him being the centre of attention in TV shows as well, such as Channel 5's Prince Andrew: Where Did All The Money Go? and Andrew & Fergie's: Unconventional Relationship.

Love Is Blind UK fans in tears over Scottish star's treatment: 'Just so sad to see'
Love Is Blind UK fans were left heartbroken for one Scottish star in the latest instalment of the Netflix dating show. *Warning - This article contains spoilers for Love Is Blind UK season 2 episode 7.* Love Is Blind UK has made its comeback with another four episodes today, and viewers are already slamming one participant for his dubious conduct after his fiancee broke down in tears. Episode 7 of the Netflix series delivered plenty of explosive moments as the Love Is Blind couples came face-to-face with former romantic interests from the pods during a reunion gathering. Whilst some participants maintained their composure, others displayed behaviour that fellow Love Is Blind cast members branded as 'disrespectful'. Health coach Javen, aged 28, was especially brazen, blatantly chatting up rejected participants Sophie and Aanu whilst his fiancée Katisha tried to maintain her composure. The episode, fittingly named 'You're going to get me in trouble' - referencing Javen's remark to Aanu at the gathering - captured him saying to Sophie: "I'd be lying if I sat here and said, '100%.'" He also enquired whether she "lived far from here" and declared: "You're naughty." But tensions escalated an hour afterwards when they arrived home, with Katisha appearing clearly distressed as Javen declared he was heading back out to socialise with some of the cast, reports the Mirror. The situation quickly became emotional and Javen departed the house without Katisha for his evening out, leaving the nanny and makeup artist from Dumfries, Scotland in floods of tears. During the scene at their apartment, Katisha remained silent as they shared dinner, with Javen observing: "It was good to see everyone." "How was your chat with Sophie?" she enquired, sounding downcast, as Javen responded cheerfully: "It was interesting. She's funny and she has good banter." "I see," Katisha retorted as Javen also described his conversation with Demola, Katisha's other love interest from the pods, as "interesting". "Interesting in what way?" Katisha fired back, to which Javen vaguely replied: "In the way that I was intrigued to know." "Ok, I'm going to bed; I'm very tired. Goodnight," Katisha declared dejectedly, planting a kiss on Javen's cheek. Javen was then seen texting someone on his phone before declaring: "I'm going out." The camera then switched to Katisha lying down, looking distressed as her fiance made plans for his night out over the phone. "You staying in?" he queried, to which Katisha confirmed once more: "Yeah." "I'll see you later," Javen said nonchalantly, donning his jacket as he left. Katisha immediately burst into tears and covered her face with her hand as the episode faded to black. Watch Love is Blind UK on Netflix for free with Sky from £15 Sky Get the deal here Product Description The episode elicited a heart-wrenching response from viewers, with fans flocking to X to voice their opinions. One viewer commented: "In as much as I wanna be like, yooo Katisha, you knew that kinda guy you were picking, I can't help but feel sorry for her. It's just so sad to see." They also noted: "As men are we just oblivious to how our partner is feeling? ? When Javen came back from the mixer could he not see that Katisha was not okay? "With my girl I instantly know when she's not okay. And in that moment my mind goes into overdrive thinking about..." Another viewer posted: "Did I watch this right? Did Javen go cheat nonchalantly in front of Katisha? That's literally next level losery. If that wasn't editing (even so, he left while she was distraught after his behaviour), then again, what a loser." A third wrote: "Katisha is better than me, l would not even kiss you goodnight especially after disrespecting me like that." One more raged: "WHY THE HELL IS JAVEN PULLING SOPHIE FOR A CHAT? ? IN FRONT OF KATISHA? IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY? !'Are you dating anybody?' 'you don't live far from here right?' Then he leaves her at home to cry alone?" However, some fans didn't have much sympathy for Katisha due to the choice she made in the pods, with one remarking: "Seeing Katisha cry over this loser, I can't even feel sorry for her cause she had a guy who made it clear he wanted to love her right but she said nahhh." Another concurred: "Katisha ruined her own experience. Even if she didn't pick Demola, she knew she never got that reassurance from Javen and still picked him." Meanwhile, another fan urged Katisha to leave the relationship, writing with crying emojis: "Katisha, please RUN there's still time." Is it the end of the road for Katisha and Javen? Stay tuned to find out.
