GMB's Susanna Reid recreates iconic Vogue cover with 'croissant bikini'
Miriam Margolyes' decision to pose nude for British Vogue was discussed on Wednesday's instalment of Good Morning Britain, with host Susanna Reid highlighting how the 82-year-old left little to the imagination with just iced buns preserving her modesty.
Susanna Reid mimics Miriam Margolyes' vogue cover
Actress Miriam Margolyes has graced the cover of British Vogue for the fashion magazine's annual Pride issue.
In one eye-catching image, Miriam bared all, but her modesty was protected by an assortment of iced buns.
During the latest episode of Good Morning Britain, host Susanna Reid tried to recreate Miriam's daring Vogue photograph.
Susanna held two croissants over her chest and said: "I've got a new top this morning..."
Her co-host Richard Madeley started laughing as she joked: "I'm not sure I can strategically place these in the same way [as Miriam]. Miriam has done something similar, hasn't she?"

Her colleague Richard Arnold added: "It's very Calendar Girls, isn't it? I'm thinking you can pull it off."
Susanna later described the look as her "croissant bikini" as they continued to talk about Miriam's iconic cover shoot.
Richard and Susanna praised Miriam for always being herself as they gushed over the star.
However, Richard did find it odd that Miriam's snack of choice is raw white onion which she "carries in her bag".

Despite confidently posing for Vogue, Miriam told the magazine she struggles with body confidence.
The Harry Potter star explained: "I like my face. I think my face is kind and warm and open and smiley.
"But I hate my body. I hate big t*ts [and I have] a drooping belly, little twisted legs.
"I'm not thrilled with that. But you just make the best of it. You have to. You do the best you can."
The quick-witted actress is known for being candid in interviews and she told the magazine about having to undergo heart surgery to have a stent fitted.
"When you're young, you never think about death," she explained. "You just think about your next f**k basically. I think about death a lot.
"Oh, every day, for sure. Every morning when I get up I think, 'Hmmm, another day,' which maybe I wasn't expecting."
Good Morning Britain airs on weekdays between 6am and 9am on ITV and ITVX.
