Mr Dull? I thought that was the rightful title of non other than Jake Lynch.

Shocked Seems far longer to me. They say time flies when you're having fun, but there is an exception to every rule. Time for it to be replaced with a news programme!

It's certainly alot better than what it was and to be honest I'm quite enjoying the current schedule. I know it's a cliche but I'd rather be eased into the morning than yanked with a serious news bulletin. Just hope the background gets changed sometime soon....

I preferred the Bowen / Raworth / Stuart / Beckett era to be honest. Closely followed by Williams and Turnbull.

These days, I just couldn't bear to watch it.

I have to agree with you. The original team from October 2000 was excellent and the programme had a suitable mix of news and features.

IIRC, the original Friday and weekend presenters were Darren Jordon and Sarah Montague. Not the best pair Breakfast has ever had, but Jeremy Bowen and Sophie Raworth were brilliant on Mondays-Thursdays.
