Do we know exactly what is going to happen when Adrian is on Champions League duty? Dan or John to fill in on Thursday?

Chiles Is in London on Wed. Night anyway, as Arsenal's game is the pick, but they do have highlights that go on till midnight usually. May well be case of wait and see..


Are they also going to keep Christine on with somebody else at her side, or will it be a case of when neither of them air on air, the other will not be either much in the way that happened when they had a few weeks break off the one show earlier in the year.

I assume Granire is actually Grainne? I think she is rather good actually. In fact, apart from Christine sitting on Adrian's knee, this whole Daybreak thing might just turn out to be rather splendid on the whole. Of course, GMTV it is not, but then again it's not supposed to be.

On t'other channel, Bill and Sian have managed to demonstrate effective chemistry over the years without the need for Sian to practically lounge atop Bill. Adrian and Christine please note.

However, there is a detectable chemistry between the two and it might just pay off.................................

If I was in charge, I would still recommend that John Stapleton moves on to London Tonight. He would be good at that. If Daybreak wanted a replacement special correspondent, they could do worse than Mr. Geissler!

The Daybreak brand (Ikea with autocue) is so far away from the former GMTV brand (fluffy carpet and big slippers) that retaining John (and even Kate) doesn't really matter an iota!

As long as Adrian doesn't have Christine strapped to his back next week in a papoose, it might just do well.

John Stapleton moving to london tonight ild be very suprized to see that ITN Produces LT and Daybreak is produced by itv breakfast there different companys and I doubt itv would move him so soon and I doubt john would want to go from national to regional.

Grainnre I like i think shes a good presenter and would do well maybe as an ireland correspondent or as an entertainment role and in newsreading but for features editor it does not work it does not suite her reporting on monday was at a very low standard.

Bill and Sian do have good Chemistry but at times I find BBC Breakfast a bit heavy sometimes and I now prefer Daybreak its miles better than GMTV and has a mix of I want to see of a morning.

I Doubt Christine will get the day off on wednesday/thursday I Would chose John to cover.

I'm sorry, Ginofish, but are you that obtuse that you do not realize that her name is Grainne , not Grannire?

Given the quality of its attempts to fix your previous posts I would not put much faith in its abilities.

After watching all the videos our kind member provided I can say I love everything about Daybreak, set, music, hosts, content and most of all that great view they have, 10 out of 10.

Matt Smith is doing the highlights - and think this week at least Adrian will probably do Daybreak on Thursday too. Listings seem to suggest he will anyway - and ITV are probably too scared that he'll quit in a strop should they offer to get someone to stand in for him.

Thursday & Friday are also going to be big news days due to the Pope, so I imagine Adrian will present.

Haven't Dan and Kate been confirmed as the occasional stand-in presenters? Seem to remember reading that somewhere. Or was I just dreaming that?!
