People expect because BBC Breakfast is serious and boring, stuckup and always shamingly plugging BBC shows, that every other breakfast show should be. People can't get it into their heads that not everyone wants serious rolling news in the morning.


I think Breakfast is professional and well made. People see men in suits and think it's all po-faced and serious all the time but it isn't. Bill Turnball is brilliant. And Breakfast plug BBC shows the same way Daybreak plugs ITV shows. And as well they should.


At least Daybreak has a broad spectrum to plug shows, not like Breakfast where its always Stricly or Doctor Who. Daybreak and GMTV always pluggs shows from other brodcasters regulary. And no they shouldn't really on public money.


It would be ludicrous to have a BBC show and not mention other BBC programmes on it. Swap Shop, Going Live and Live & Kicking did it as has Blue Peter. People always use the licence fee as a stick to beat the BBC with. The BBC would be mad not to talk about shows on their own channel. And Breakfast have promoted ITV shows as well during interviews.

Mike, I think you have probably just given Daybreak it's single most biggest ratings boost! Hoards and scores will now be tuning-in to see said newscaster!

If I recall those photos of Tasmin were taken by an ex boyfriend for private use which The Sun got hold of. Hardly proof that she's a crap hack!

I think Daybreak could find a better person to present the news, Emma Crosby, Helen Frospero, Katie Derham, anyone would be better than Tasmin, she is not the best.

Daybreak did not want a credible journalist, they need a 'face' to present their news, and to be honest - many people I guess recognise Tasmin as the news anchor. Whether she is good at presenting the news or not, is not Daybreak was concerned about.

She's the Sharuna Sagar of network though, where mistakes breed.

This man is a legend. Tamzin is fantastic btw, only jealous people wouldn't like her. So sexy people can't read the news?

Tamzin might be great, whoever she is. However Tasmin, the newsreader on Daybreak, is distinctly average...
