I've noticed this, but the reason for it being shortened is because the story before the ad break has overran a lot recently.

Sometimes the stories overrun, however, Len's interview today was scheduled just after the headlines at 6:45, so the ad break was pushed back deliberately. But then again, the Len interview could have gone under Entertainment.

An old report to show what GMB is doing wrong, with animating gifs to explain.

I miss those graphics. I fail to see how the slow destruction of them has done the show any favours.

They do look so much better - it's always the way when a new look is tampered with. 90% of the time what they started with looked the best.

I always prefer to watch GMB then Breakfast because of the much more liveliness and all that's going on. Whether it brings the news or not, the chemistry between the presenters are good and the laughter that occurs occasionally is always best unlike Breakfast

I agree. The Breakfast presenters are dull. Susanna, Ben, Kate, Ranvir and Charlotte always have a laugh together. They have fantastic chemistry, it's never forced.

I like the programme on the whole to be honest. Nice, modern graphics, with a clean and tidy set. The ability to do hard news stories is there, but I do feel some features are a waste of time (Mum in a million for example). Surprisingly, I enjoyed #SelfieEsteem. It highlighted some important issues, which Breakfast would never bring up.

I prefer Breakfast: great chemistry amongst the team: Bill, Louise, Charlie, Naga, Sally, Carol. And let's not forget where Susanna Reid started and perfected that "chemistry".

Give me BBC Breakfast any day over the gimmicks of Good Morning Britain.

Breakfast is just plain dry. Tiny little studio with out of date graphics, alongside presenters who clearly don't like each over.

It's not reflected in the ratings. And "dull presenters"? That will be why itv poached Susanna Reid then.
