I wonder if they will use this as a relaunch for ITV on Monday January 6th. New idents and a new look to the news as well.

I have a funny feeling the news will probably have a refresh. I'd love an update to News at Ten.

It made me wonder as the year of new idents will end at the end of December and it is perfect timing for an overhaul.

if there's a refresh to the news they should bring back the big ben at the start

They've already said ITV Creates will continue next year.

The chase is coming off in a week or two for another show!


It’s off now for Cash Trapped. Looks like Tennable is off for a new 3pm quiz in 2 weeks according to ITV Press Office.

An odd time of year to be messing with the regular schedule.

Well Piers kept banging on about his contract ending on December the 31st. So he must have signed on the dotted line.

I wonder if they'll revamp GMB again come the new year...

I wouldn't be surprised if Piers only does 7-9am, with a GMB Newshour type show at 6am with Susanna and/or Charlotte? Would allow for proper entertainment, weather and sport updates too.

The Viewback survey in the Summer when the plans were first known about did mention a News ‘Half Hour’ With Charlotte til 6.30.

That gives Piers a 30 min lie in.

Could do an NBC and make it completely advert & competition free...would be popular I think.

Dream on! They'll never do it ad free.

They've already said ITV Creates will continue next year.

It technically would be if they don't relaunch on New Year's Day. Not that I'm expecting a relaunch.

If NBC decided to do their breakfast show in the middle of a battlefield do you think ITV should follow suit?

An ad-free breakfast programme is one of those "would be nice" things, but realistically its not going to happen. Its the adverts that fund the programme after all. There may be a PSB element on the occasions where they go into rolling news mode and to hell with the adverts, but that's very much the exception.
