TV presenter says hosting This Morning with Richard Madeley was ‘worst job ever’
TV presenter Jenny Powell says hosting This Morning with Richard Madeley was her "worst job ever".
The 54-year-old didn't hold back as she opened up about secret telly "feuds" at ITV.
Regular Good Morning Britain guest host Richard famously presented This Morning alongside his wife Judy Finnigan fro 1988 to 2001.
Jenny once stood-in for Judy as Richard's co-presenter, but admits it wasn't a pleasant experience.
She told : "My worst job would have to be doing This Morning with Richard Madeley for a few weeks when Judy was off.
"I found that quite challenging.

"It's difficult to replace someone temporarily - someone who's been working with their husband and then all of a sudden you're there."
Jenny - who also presented Top of the Pops and Wheel of Fortune - went on to reveal the reason she was driven to quit Loose Women.
She was a guest presenter on the ITV show in the early 2000s, appearing alongside the likes of Stacey Solomon and Janet Street-Porter.
But she left Loose Women in 2005 and never returned - admitting now it's because she felt "intimidated" by the other women.
