Rare to see Steph McGovern presenting with Bill, on a Monday, and she's on tommorow as well.

Out of interest, has Steph ever presented with Charlie Stayt?

Just pointing out that it's 3 years since Breakfast first broadcast from Salford. To me, it almost seems like it was always there now.


I think it's quite nice that very little about the program has changed over recent years and that stability has been a factor in its success.

I still find myself momentarily surprised every time they cut to the outside view and it's not London.

It pleases me that Susanna Reid's departure had a negligible impact on Breakfast, thus proving the age old adage correct - the show is bigger than any one person.

The thing with Breakfast as a casual viewer is that the presenters are so interchangeable that it doesn't matter who presents as the content is king.

You're right. I usually get about 15-20 minutes to watch it while I'm eating my breakfast - and as long as I get the news headlines, a weather forecast and the regional news/travel/weather, I'm not interested in anything else, including who is presenting. I'm also much more likely to channel hop at breakfast time too, much more so than at other times. If whatever Breakfast is covering is not appealing to me, I will quickly switch to Good Morning Britain or Sky News. I've got very limited time to get news in the morning and I don't want to waste it on uninteresting drivel. However, later in the day I'll usually pick whichever news bulletin is convenient and watch it without changing channels.

Breakfast is now showing an episode of 'extra time' from 2005 with Richie Benaud.

Does anyone know how long (weekend) Breakfast have been running a 'The Papers sting before their papers review? I spotted it just before 8.25am, and it'll presumably be used again in an hour. Its different to the one used at night on the news channel, and has 'BBC Breakfast' on it.
