Well the Daybreakers are back today and I enjoyed that , something cool before the kids go to school was also fun and i think brought across a one show sort of feel with Christine.

Does kate only work 3 days a week or something because steves been on at least twice so far I think hes just as good if not better and has a good on screen chemistry with AC+ CB.

Adrian Presented this morning which I thought he wouldant have due to his UCL commitments.

Also this Enviroment correspondent role that messors vearmusy and mcabe have there not doing anything of the sort there presenting the weather and that's it I wounder when we will see a report.

And Tamsin was a bit under parr this morning.

What is the point of Daybreakers (that is the thing where they show three clips and people vote, right?)

It seems you have to go to the Daybreak website to vote, why would you do that when you could just go straight to YouTube and see any of the clips right there and then?

With Daybreak's ratings falling (apparently), I have a question.

If Daybreak reached GMTV's level of ratings, would Adrian and Christine stick around or be put on other ITV projects, with lower profile presenters (Kate Garraway and Dan Lobb spring to mind) taking over?

No because many of the viewers who are watching now is because of them , viewers may have switched to the bbc/sky when GMTV Went and the numbers are made up for people who like AC+ CB or people giving the programme a chance , also I doubt Dan Lobb and Kate could sustain that amount of viewers .

It's interesting that we all look at Daybreak in that way. If it was any other programme in any other slot and it was deemed a failure by ITV it would just be replaced with another programme. If Daybreak isn't popular, why couldn't ITV just replace it with something else? What makes the morning slot so different?

The amount of money they've just splashed out on state of the art studio , high profile guests and star sinings there not going to throw it off quite easily. Besides I hope daybreak stays the way it is for many years yet.

I doubt they will do anything to Daybreak just now, they will just let it tick along so they can see what will happen when BBC Breakfast moves to salford.

Early days, Guys. Early days. As the BBC have already learnt from the "Eldorado" and "Sixty Minutes" ventures, you need to give a new product more than ten minutes from launch to define whether or not it's a sinker or a swimmer.

Strange that Adrian and Christine had swapped positions on the sofa today after Adrian said he always has to have Christinesa on his left.


Why, is Adrian now sitting on top of Christine, instead of the other way round? This is a preposterous notion of chemistry. LOL.

Where can I buy a desk (rather, coffee table) like that one in front of their sofa? It's awesome.

And both of those sank!

Is Lucy Verasamy off sick or on holiday?

Erm that's the whole point, programmes that are cancelled before being given a chance/or have improved/bedded in but decision to cancel had already taken place.
