Susanna Reid has not yet started her daily London-to-Salford commutes to front BBC Breakfast, but the presenter is more than a little tired with all the fuss over her choice of on-air clothing. Reid had a swipe at viewers who complained about the sight of her cleavage on early morning TV, telling the Radio Times: "People seem to be shocked that women have breasts. There will be complaints about the fact that there is literally a shadow." The Daily Telegraph says the magazine reports that Reid was found scouring the BBC studios for a spare T-shirt to wear under her regular attire just minutes before she went on air. Let us hope viewers cut her some slack when the 3.30am starts arrive.
