Richard Madeley couldn’t wait to big himself up with Mick Lynch and the RMT man’s 3-word response was everything
To the world of Richard Madeley – stick with us, please – where the Good Morning Britain presenter was super excited to be interviewing rail union boss Mick Lynch again.
You might remember Lynch has a habit of owning Madeley into various other dimensions when the pair encounter each other.
Just in case you missed it – or want to enjoy it again – here are the pair last month.

So Madeley was especially keen to point out that in their last chat on Tuesday that he might actually, finally, have had a point.
And Lynch’s 3-word response was everything.
What do you think Richard Madeleys priority was in his interview with Mick Lynch from the @RMTunion? Trying to prove he'd been right all along last month when Mick made him look like an idiot.
Today Madeley didn't look like an idiot. Just petty #GMB pic.twitter.com/eLYzkdpqfC

Feels like Madeley might have had an open goal there but he still managed to hoof it over the bar.
“Well Richard, you’re always right, as everybody in this country knows…”

He lost me at "The Guardian's a left wing newspaper".

Possibly our favourite bit is Susanna Reid’s face as Madeley inches his way towards his point.
On the hour, every hour, he & Suzanna re-ran the earlier interview adding their spin. Desperate to set the scene as Rich Wuz Rite before the interview with Lynch, then that dire “introduction” to the interview itself. And Lynch still made his points clearly with Suzanna finishing

We’re with this person.
I could watch Richard Madeley v Mick Lynch exchanges all day long.
