Fiona Phillips - Daybreak Out Of Touch
Former GMTV presenter and broadcaster Fiona Phillips who is currently doing the paper review on BBC Radio 2 breakfast show with Richard Madeley was asked, " What you think about Daybreak" She replied , " they are out of touch" - Although she did say " She likes Adrian and Christine" I did hear her say this. I think Richard and her knew the Mail would pick this comment up.

Absolutle rubbish. She was employed with GMTV long before she and Martin Frizzell got together.
Hardly.
When they married, she was already the showbiz presenter for GMTV based in LA and he was a lowly roving reporter.
She is totally right about Daybreak. For a start, the set it totally wrong for a breakfast show. That kind of clinical setting, cold materials, sharp furnishings, harsh lighting and dark scene out of the window is not what you want to see when you get up in the morning. The only thing colder than the set is one of the presenters.
The way Adrian says Christine's name and she says his at the start of the show and after every break is really grating now too.
Well said about her hubby's role.I think Fiona was on the sofa for a year or so before Martin was made editor. I used to really enjoy her showbiz reports. She was a little tongue and cheek and her banter with Eamon was funny then. She became annoying to me when she got on that sofa.
I was thinking the same
Wouldn't it be brilliant for all those 'how on earth can you say that?' moments!
Cringeworthy and unmissable
Daybreak has improved recently but that's been largely down to Kate Garraway's presence - I doubt whether Christine Bleakley will survive long term in the role but Adrian Chiles is probably more likely to.
