ITV Good Morning Britain segment pulled off air as Ranvir Singh forced to stop sweary report
ITV GMB's Ranvir Singh had to step in and cut the report. ITV Good Morning Britain had to cut one of its live reports today after explicit language could be heard in the background. During Ranvir Singh's news segment she was joined by the North America correspondent Noel Phillips, who was discussing the national guard troops in LA for the ICE protests. However in the background of the reports, the protestors in LA were heard using a number of explicit words as Donald Trump sends another 2,000 National Guards and 700 Marines to LA on the fourth day of unrest, writes The Mirror. As the report rolled, it was quickly cut as Ranvir stepped in saying: "I'm just going to interrupt that - I think we could hear some profanities being spoken. That's my understanding of what's going on there near Noel and we can't really broadcast that at quarter past eight in the morning. We're going to try to get back to him." Fans took to social media to talk about the on air mishap, one fan penned: "Who would think it be a good idea to be in the middle of the protesters that are angry…" The moment comes after Noel opened up about being shot with a rubber bullet while covering the chaos live from Los Angeles on Monday, leading to his need for medical treatment. Susanna asked Noel about the incident, she said: "You found yourself in the line of fire yesterday, didn't you? Just before your report at eight o'clock. "We had no idea at the time. We've seen a number of reporters, in fact you reported on one yesterday morning of a photographer who had been hit, what happened to you?" Speaking about the incident, Noel said: "Susanna and Richard, just 10 minutes before coming on air yesterday, I was on the floor talking to several protesters. I was on the floor because it was the best place to be, given the fact that the situation around us was so volatile, officers were obviously chasing protestors on the streets." He further described the moment of impact, saying: "As I was laying on the floor, I felt as though an enormous ton of bricks had fallen on my arm. I realised, within about 20 to 30 seconds, that a rubber bullet had grazed the top layer of my skin and had caused a bit of injury. "My arm was swollen, I went to the doctors, got it checked out, it wasn't broken at all. But, it was swollen, it still is swollen and it's in a bandage at the moment. "It's pretty surreal to be hit, but relieved as it could have been worse. These rubber bullets are less lethal than a bullet but they can kill you or seriously injury you."

ITV Good Morning Britain host concerned for co-star as loud bangs heard live on air
A live report on ITV GMB on Monday morning caused concern when loud bangs were heard. Good Morning Britain presenter Ranvir Sing had to reassure viewers tuning in to Monday morning's ITV breakfast programme. Ranvir was in the studio with her co-hosts Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid, delivering the latest global news headlines when loud bangs were heard in the background. The hosts went to Los Angeles via videolink where protests have reignited, with demonstrators opposing immigration raids clashing with law enforcement for a third day, writes the Mirror. Protesters congregating in downtown LA were told by police to disperse immediately, following earlier demonstrations that blocked a major city road. National Guard units, deployed by President Donald Trump, resorted to tear gas to disperse the protesters. The North America Correspondent for ITV, Noel Phillips, reported live from LA, with loud bangs audible in the background during his segment. Speaking to the camera, Noel said: "As you can see police are now trying to get these protestors off the streets, Ranvir. We're going to try and bring you more a little later on." Producers then told Ranvir to clarify the alarming sounds with Noel during the segment on the programme. Discussing the unfolding situation, Ranvir clarified: "And just to be clear, my producer was telling me that was fireworks because of course there's several cameras there. Just wanted to make that clear because for you because obviously alarming to hear that kind of sound." The loud bangs were quite worrying, which then prompted concern from another presenter. Later, Susanna checked in with Noel, asking if he was alright as the programme crossed back over to America for the latest updates. Noel confirmed he was unharmed before delivering an in-depth update on the unfolding situation. He then spoke with locals for his segment, while Richard and Susanna from the studio reminded him to "stay safe" as his report concluded. Elsewhere in the show, host Richard disclosed that he had suffered a double wrist fracture in France over the weekend. "That looks sore," remarked his colleague Susanna, observing the cast on Richard's wrist. Richard recounted the incident, he said: "Yeah, it's a double fracture of the wrist. I was walking quite quickly down a steep pavement in France, actually, on Friday,". He continued, detailing the accident: "The pavement was loose and it flipped up and it flipped me forward, and I thought, 'Am I gonna win or is gravity gonna win?' And gravity won, and I hit the ground hard. So yeah, I've got a double fracture and we'll see how it goes." Good Morning Britain airs weekdays on ITV1 and ITVX at 6am.
