Susanna Reid is called out by Keith Duffy and Brian McFadden as she makes a blunder while trying to rush them off GMB
Susanna Reid was called out by Boyzlife when she made a blunder on Wednesday’s Good Morning Britain.
The journalist, 53, was chatting to Boyzone’s Keith Duffy and Westlife’s Brian McFadden alongside her co-host Richard Madeley.
Keith and Brian appeared on the show to promote their upcoming tour as musical duo Boyzlife, which kicks off in January 2025.
But before they could mention their latest announcement, the GMB hosts shared a sweet 30-year-old throwback clip of Richard interviewing Boyzone.
When their brief trip down memory lane ended, so did their interview, with Susanna seemingly deciding it was time to sign off without discussing the group’s tour.

As the broadcaster tried to say goodbye to their guests and wished Brian and Keith “all the best,” the two quickly called out her mistake.
“You never mentioned the tour!” they shouted in unison.
Amused by the mistake, Keith joked, “We don’t get up that early in the morning, we just do it to promote our tour.”
Boyzone – made up of Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Mikey Graham and Shane Lynch – achieved international fame and six UK number ones, including Words, No Matter What, All That Matters To Me and You Needed Me.
The band officially split in 2000, but regularly reunited for landmark tours – including the Back Again… No Matter What tour in 2009 – the last time they performed as a five-piece.
The band reunited in 2013 to celebrate their 20th anniversary with a tour and new releases.
In 2018, Boyzone confirmed their plans to split for good after releasing a final album dedicated to late bandmate Stephen Gately.
The band revealed that they would be calling it quits after their 25th anniversary tour and album.

It was a tribute to Stephen – who tragically died suddenly in 2009 at the age of 33 from a congenital heart defect.
Confirming the news on Twitter, the four shared a photo of themselves along with a statement.
They wrote: ‘The new thing is out and yes, it’s true. Our new album will be the last for Boyzone. We’ve had 25 great years and we promise this will be our biggest and best year yet. Watch this space… #BZ25 (sic)’
The album featured an unheard song by Stephen, which was changed to include their own vocals.
Keith previously admitted he struggled to cope when the band returned to touring following Stephen’s shocking death.
He said: ‘We did two huge ones [comeback] tours in 2008 and 2009, and we did four nights in each location. We came back in 2009 with the Greatest Hits album, and in October we were in the middle of recording the Brother album when we lost Stephen.
“He died in 2009 and in 2011, two years later, we hit the road again, which was way too soon. Much too fast.
‘Emotionally and psychologically… I’ll be completely honest: Shane and I drank too much, trying to numb the pain, both on and off stage.
‘It just didn’t work and it wasn’t fun. We didn’t want to be together. Then we took a sabbatical.’
Busted and McFly made the dreams of 2,000 pop fans come true when they announced in 2013 that they would become one band.
And nineties heartthrobs Boyzone and Westlife will follow suit as Brian McFadden and Keith Duffy come together to create a super duo called Boyzlife.

The former pop stars are at the forefront of the venture and revealed there are ‘no limits’ as they shared their plans to tour together.
The pair will share stories about their heyday in pop music and perform their band’s best-known hits.
Keith tried to crack the film and television industry after Boyzone broke up in 2000.
He appeared in the 2001 series of Celebrity Big Brother and had a very brief stint in ITV’s Splash in 2014, but it was his role as Ciaran McCarthy in Coronation Street that put him on the radar.
