The GMB star then cast the rest of the team, with Susanna Reid as Catherine Zeta-Jones, Laura Tobin as Martine McCutcheon and Dr Hilary Jones as George Clooney. However, fans had their own suggestions, with one pointing out that Piers bears a resemblance to the bird lady in Mary Poppins, writing: "Brenda Fricker as Piers Morgan, undoubtedly."
Another added: "Susanna Reid would surely be played by Jennifer Connelly. And Piers Morgan played by Brenda Fricker."
