RICHARD Madeley returned to Good Morning Britain today and revealed a very annoying problem at his home.
The veteran broadcaster, 66, told viewers that wife Judy Finnigan, 74, is now sleeping in the spare room due to a pesky mouse terrorising their bedroom.

Richard, who was co-hosting with Charlotte Hawkins, thanked viewers for their suggestions on getting rid of the rodent.
He said: “Can I just thank everyone that’s ringing in for tips on how to get rid of the mice we’ve got in our house.
“I was saying earlier that Judy is now sleeping in the spare room because we’ve got this mouse in the bedroom now and it comes out from under the bed at about 11 o’clock every night on the dot, virtually to the second.
“I’ve set traps, I’ve got poison boxes out, I have tried peanut butter and it’s not drawn it out.”
Charlotte then told how Lindsay Hoyle, the Speaker of the House of Commons, has brought his cat Attlee to work to ensure the parliamentary estate is clear of mice ahead of the royal reception on Tuesday
Richard then said: “Mr Speaker, can I borrow Attlee for the day, please?”
The presenter’s time in the GMB hotseat this year has been fleeting with a revolving line-up of Martin Lewis and Ed Balls helping out alongside Susanna Reid.
Last month Richard revealed he suffered a freak accident when he closed a car door on his own face.
He explained: “I was crouching down on a slope between my open car door… and I turned round as the car door decided to close itself. Gravity pulled it shut.
“It’s a big heavy door and it hit me on the chin, and I really bit my tongue to the extent I needed an op.
“I had to have some stitches in it.”
