What is your favourite breakfast programme/channel

*Chuckle* I'd forgotten those smily suns! Although I must admit I only took an interest in the weather once Ulrika came along

Where did you get the screenshots from, BringBackThames?

I bought it - a VHS of TV-am from the day I was born for about £30 from Moving Image. They were very quick and nice in replying.

Used to watch ITV mainly, with a bit of Channel 4 Daily.

Also saw bits of 5 news Early, espically when Tanya James did the weather(What's happened to her BTW?)

Now I listen to BBC Local Radio.

Look at my sig, for a big clue!

What stuff is on the vid? The whole programme? What happens at commercial breaks?

We don't watch television during breakfast time - instead R4's Today programme is drummed in both my ears for the rest of the day.

If you don't usually listen to it give up on Breakfast TV for day - you'll be suprised how much better <<Today>> is.

whole programme + all commercials!

I normally open my eyes to Kilroy. Getting up before 9:00 is an alien concept to me.

It has the original clock on, too, I see.

Do Moving Image store every single prog since 1983 then?

How do you get hold of one then. I want to see TV-AM from 9/6/86 (My DOB)

BBC Scotland did a weird experiment, before Breakfast Time.
It televised Radio Scotland's Good Morning Scotland. I remember seeing a report about it (I think on Swap Shop, bizarrely).
The BBC considered doing a joint radio/television breakfast programme, which would have been bizarre.

Swap Shop pretended to be a breakfast programme for one show. I think they called it UK AM. It included John Craven reading the news on the hour every hour. It was a bit odd. This was before Breakfast Time started.

Russell Harty also got in on the act before breakfast tv started. He joined the presenting team on The Good Day Show in Boston (where he was leagues ahead of the American presenters) and edited highlights of the programme were shown instead of his normal chat show.

Radio 4 wins my vote, by the way.

How long have Sophie Raworth and Rob Bonnet been doing Breakfast now? I remember the days on Breakfast when it was Nicholas Witchell and Jill Dando, then Justin Webb and Juliet Morris, then John Nicolson and Sophie and then Sophie and Jeremy. Rob Bonnet has been doing the sport for ages as well - did Eamonn Holmes (Mr GMTV himself) used to do sport? What would happen to Sophie if she left? Jill Dando went onto the Six o'clock news, when it had half a million presenters, but now it only has 3 (Huw, Fiona and Sian), where would she go? Juliet Morris didnt exactly do much when she went.

The MOMI for me is a short tube ride away with no changing involved! TVam was still around when i was born,I'm not under 7 you know!
