The presenting duo were discussing Sarah Ferguson's recent breast cancer diagnosis when Susanna admitted that she hadn't gotten around to booking her routine mammogram appointment. 

Chatting about Sarah's diagnosis, which the Duchess of York revealed on her Tea Talks podcast, Susanna said: "I think the reason that she's open about this is that she wants this to be a wake-up call to people."

Susanna revealed that she hadn't booked a mammogram

She continued: "I hadn't realised, that there was a change in policy and screening, around seven months ago, back in September last year, where appointments used to be sent out for mammograms, now it’s an invitation, apparently, to make an appointment.

"As a result, around, just in London, 12,000 women are estimated to have missed out on breast screenings because of that new open invitations system."

The TV star admitted: "Now, I received one of those letters, an invitation to go. And, of course, what have I done? Absolutely nothing. I haven't booked in a mammogram and I'm 52 and I absolutely should take that up."

The following morning, Susanna shared an update and reassured viewers that she had booked her appointment. 

"My excuse was, I just didn't get round to it, and so yesterday I got round to it," she said, before explaining that the booking process wasn't exactly easy and that she had to overcome several "hurdles", including three separate phone calls.

The presenter was told that she would be sent a letter within two weeks with an appointment date set within six weeks.

"Anyway, all I'm saying is, it is not… it was straightforward enough, just a couple of hurdles in the way," she said.
