Good Morning Britain’s weather presenter Laura Tobin has opened up on her future on the show, and said that while she ‘loves’ her job, she would like to branch out and work on other programmes

Laura Tobin is eager to dive deeper into climate change programming.

The 42 year old weather presenter, a staple on ITV’s ‘ Good Morning Britain ‘ since 2014, expressed her passion for her role but is keen to expand her horizons. She shared: “I love it! I mean, I get to tell people the weather every day, and then I have like a little segment every day where I can talk about something else.”

Her daily segments vary from climate reports to phenomena like the Northern Lights or extreme global rainfall, which she finds thrilling. “Whether it’s like a climate report, whether it’s the Northern Lights, whether it’s extreme rainfall around the world – for me, weather forecasting is my first love – it’s my bread and butter, it’s what I do.”

Tobin relishes adding educational snippets to her forecasts, enhancing viewers’ mornings with science. “If I can, like, jot in all of these extra bits, you know, sprinkles of science while people are having their breakfast that make it interesting – it’s a dream scenario.” She is enthusiastic about hosting more shows focused on climate issues, having already collaborated with the Tonight Team on projects like dietary changes to combat climate change.

“I’d love to do more shows talking about climate change. I’ve done some stuff with the Tonight Team looking at the multi-benefits if you want to change your diet – one thing people can do to reduce the impact of climate change is reducing food waste,” she tells the Express.

Working alongside Charlotte Hawkins, Adil Ray, Richard Madeley, and formerly Ben Shephard, who now pairs with Cat Deeley on ‘ This Morning ‘, Tobin feels she has the “best job in the world” thanks to her colleagues. She continued: “I literally have the best job in the world. Charlotte [Hawkins] and Adil [Ray] just came over. And yeah, we just have a laugh every single day.

“And we’re always seeing Ben walking down the corridor – so it’s like he’s not even gone – we see him all the time! I mean, I feel we have like a big cast of presenters and everyone just brings something different when they present. For me, I love having Richard Madeley, because he’s a big space geek.”

“There was a big comet going through the sky, and he was like, ‘Laura, Laura, Laura! ‘ And I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’ve got my fellow science geek! But, obviously, Martin Lewis – he loves a graph – he’s the only person who brings a graph to the show, other than me. Everyone brings something different.”
