London Tower Block Fire

Good Morning Britain opening:

Awful news to wake up to.
Very detailed and compassionate coverage from Piers and Susannah this morning.

BBC World News now simulcasting Breakfast with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty

ITV are showing close scenes of a 70 year old man whose flat now has smoke emerging from his flat. It's truly heartbreaking to watch

Lorraine is off air today due the dreadful fire in West London. Follow @gmb's extended coverage for the latest updates and developments

Another terrible incident. Does anyone have any of the BBC/Sky overnight coverage or were we all asleep at the wheel? Did ITV News come on air or were they asleep too?



I noticed the introduction to the 7 o'clock hour: "Hello, this is BBC News with Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty" instead of "Hello, this is Breakfast with..." etc.

BBC Breakfast continuing on the News Channel and it looks like Business Live is cancelled (as you would expect).

GMB on air until 10.30am.

And on BBC World News. There has been no business news on world since last night (UK Time) or if you in my part of the world since early this morning.

We will be staying on air until 10.30am to report on the #GrenfellTowerFire as firefighters continue to try and save residents

BBC repeating the same old interviews and vox pops - they should have at least moved on to other news with the ticker going as there is nothing to add at the moment.

WOT NO JEREMY?
