Daybreak - the launch onwards

GMTV Style competitions remain
Can't have everything, eh

Me neither.

Ahem.

I see Kate has now shown up for the 7 o'clock top of the hour

Like someone else said, the music could get repetitive - mabye just 1st day though.

Competitions seem better, whilst I suppose there've got to have them, Daybreak's seem a lot less in your face - just more to the point. No Keith Chegwin too!

And Sue - why didn't they run her report in the first hour? And also, it does seem like old news (mainly from Saturday) to lead on to me.

True.. But I see they've not dumbed down on the questions! 'How long is a century?'

I believe its 25 years, oh hang on......

Yeah I suppose so, but you always get ridicolously easy questions. Mabye it's just as it's the 1st day , but from what I can see only once an hour isn't too bad. GMTV's seemed like it was every 15 minutes!





Also notice there doing much less "Live's" Only one so far i think - much more in the studio - Better really ! Like that apparent Daybreak "handbook" said - a lot of them are a bit pointless and unnesssary . Better to have say John Stapleton in the studio than outside a random building in rain or whatever.

Pretty pleased that the competitions aren't long, the VTs used to get on my nerves when they were on GMTV.

As for Daybreak overall, I like it. I was always wary of Adrian and Christine but I have to say I can see their chemistry and I do quite like them, but Adrian seems awkward in his reading of the autocue. The set is amazing, looks much better on screen. The music sticks in your head too!

III LLOOOVVVEEEE IITTT!

Well nearly all of it! A few things niggling me, but much less than GMTV! Still, I need to watch a whole week before making my judgment!

BTW, I think Christine is doing brilliantly

I liked the whole TOTH will the editiors on the sofa. I also ejoy having the correspondant on the sofa after their reports. The 'Next' traps are good also - it seems rather like a rolling news station!

Rather impressed with the launch so far, although Lucy looks a bit wooden. The music is starting to get on my nerves though...
