The longtime host of the BBC morning show took to social media as he penned a heartfelt tribute to the stand-in co-hosts.

All three of the hosts are popular with fans and the journalist posted a collage of behind-the-scenes snaps on Instagram.
Each duo of presenters gave their own pose but it's clear Jon enjoyed their company as he beamed in every shot.
