Channel 4 has confirmed that The Big Breakfast is to be axed in the new year. After 8 years of morning telly.


The show should have been axed long ago - but WHAT should replace it??

Richard and Judy with a programme called 'Richard and Judy'. Now that would be good.

I'd just like to say, that if they want to save the show, I'm available for work.

I come cheap, I don't eat much, and I'm really funny first thing in the morning.

I could pull in 5m viewers easy Smile

Well I don't see what the alternative is for C4, especially if they want to appeal to the core audience of 16-30 year olds at breakfast. They won't want to do serious news as that is already catered for by BBC Breakfast, showbiz / lifestyle is done by GMTV, so what's left ? I guess that they will actually stick with The Big Breakfast as the C4 programme director has said

'A revitalised Big Breakfast remains a strong contender to keep the slot.

'Any new proposal will have to convince us that it has the distinctiveness and invention to rival The Big Breakfast's appeal to its core audience.'

How about a special version of Big Brother where all the crap presenters from the BB are locked in a house and people vote who should get shot in the mornings.

And JB could do the voiceover, or maybe controo the cameras, he had fun with that CCTV camera that Breakfast wee put in charge of ion May Day

Chris Moyles wasn't to bad on it last week although he had to keep to the script however I liked it when he critisized (can't spell) the clothes instead of keep saying that they were lovely when all other presenters do
