I agree that Breakfast is a sorry mess of a programme, and is an embarrassment to the BBC.
If they just put on 3 hours on non-corny, headline led news updates, rolling every 15 minutes, the BBC would regain some major credibility, and offer a service that isn't currently being catered for.
Sky News Sunrise is also a pityful hole.
What's wrong with doing news at breakfast time on TV?
And so the plot thickens regards the change from Jules to Julia - perhaps a pre-emptive move on the grounds that "Julia George" is less of a mouthful than "Jules George"
