It needs a standard entertainment section - so instead of bringing in items like George Clooney's engagement minutes after telling us of a horrific murder, they just say "at X time, we'll have the entertainment news" - and then the entertainment section should be about movies, tv, music whatever but not sloppy stories everyone already knows.
And get someone else to present it other than richard flippin arnold.
What about Northern Ireland? A programme called "Good Morning Britain" being broadcast to a nation that is not part of Britain (which is England, Scotland and Wales only). How left out they must feel...
How does Ben Shepherd hand over to the NI reporters for the NI news? Do they use the same graphics/fonts for their reporting or is it the ugly, standard and basic UTV News colours/font (Arial).
I don't think UTV have the contract to do breakfast news on the ITV breakfast licence (same as STV don't up here). It was a company called McMillian IIRC. No UTV/STV branding.
He looked so uncomfortable standing there. At least give him a stool. I wish itv had the balls to drop Hils, Richard, and Ross.
Dr Hillary hasnt he got a Surgery to get to at 9am in the morning, or do his payients get told Dr Jones, cant see you this morning, cause of his TV career.

I doubt most of them take the title of the programme that seriously, as long as the content includes them which of course it does.
Do people of the Isle Of Man and Channel Islands complain when UK is used in a programme title? I doubt it.
They don't tell you anything that doesn't pop up on the internet or twitter feeds.
Not everyone's got a twitter account or looks at twitter. Most people would rather turn the tv on and sit down with a cup of tea and watch the news and a few interviews.
perhaps in 2005 there was no hot contender for viewers, perhaps in 2005 FF had not yet become the obnoxious know it all sneer and bullly that she later was
or perhaps thats what the hoi polloi wanted at one time
A lot of people are saying bring back daybreak. When daybreak was on everyone said it was crap.
No.
When Daybreak FIRST STARTED with Adrian Chiles and Christine Blakely and all those other dire presenters it was rubbish but they got rid of them and made the show better with Ranvir, Matt, John Stapleton, Laura, Aled, Lorraine and Kate. It was a vast improvement from when it first started. Now they decided to get rid of it because it was getting less viewers than BBC. I think a lot of Daybreak's viewers will now switch to BBC.
This current format will not last. It's too American, it's too fast paced, most British people don't want a fast paced breakfast show. I'm sorry to all the people that like it but it just will not last. I guarantee it.
Too many competitions, yesterday's news, sponsored by (who cares) and the regional opt out for news is to say the least dire. Same package with a different wrapper.

Daybreak had its best ratings right at the start... Every revamp lost viewers. The most successful daybreak presenting team were Adrian and Christine.
Aled mr christian my faith is my life jones has had to be the worst ever cringeworthy choice for that programme....totally charmless vacuous and fake urgh
If s reid the mememe queen was not on it i might watch but shes so in your face staring you out, i reckon she has a psycho problem.....well it was proven with her antics on strictly come dancing, lol what an embarassment! She runed bbc breakfast, she should take lessons from the lady on there before, sian, bbcs worst ever decision to move her, instead we have had an influx of mememes (s reid) arent i great (the asian lady with the mans haircut)and i can be bothered when can i get home (louise minchin)female presenters on there

Because that was when it started and people will always watch a new show to see what it's like. People were getting fed up with Adrian and Christine and so didn't watch. That's why ITV got rid of them and brought back some of the better presenters but by that time people who had switched over didn't switch back. If Daybreak had started with the presenters and format it had at the end it would never have lost so many viewers.
Change it back to a boring, dated, cheesy show that nobody watched??
Dated?. How was it dated?. It was two presenters presenting current news. Sometimes they'd interview politicians about what's going on in the world of politics now. They'd have guests on, showbiz news. It wasn't dated at all.

True.... Ed Miliband was interviewed by Aled and Lorraine on Daybreak. Aled fired the killer question "Who do you think will win The X Factor"!!!

Arnold and King, need GMB to keep them in a job

Joking or not, I'm sure the makers of GMB would love it to be as successful as GMTV when Fiona was presenting:)
In 2005 when it was Eamonn and Fiona, GMTV had a reach of 6 million.
By 2008 it had dropped to 4.2 million.
Its not as simple as just "ratings"

Or shall we wait for some more poor ratings and ask him at the end of this week?
If only. If only!

Those two plus Ben and Kate Garraway! We've got the original team back! They'll only need Andrea back to do the weather as well. I would love it.
(I mean it!)
A 1980s set, mumsy host, cheeseball aled, awful graphics, Richard, Hilary, Ross...
