I've just been to the BBC World homepage and there was a banner advertising 'Breakfast on BBC World'. Is this new to BBC World or have I been incredibly ignorant?

This is not new - it happened at the same time as The World Today was launched.
It mainly targetted at the European market rather than across the World. Breakfast is not mentioned in the on air titles .. only on promos etc that are seen in Europe.

No - Breakfast is just a way of branding the bulletins you already see to the European early morning market.
The Breakfast that's seen on BBC1 and N24 will not go onto World

Does noboby read what I write!!!!!
Breakfast is a branding tool used by BBC World in Europe - it started at the same time at The World Today started.
It is NOT the Breakfast that goes out on BBC1/N24 and is not branded as Breakfast on air as that would look stupid in parts of the world where it is not early morning.
