Good Morning Britain

The thing is at the end of the show : we have the ticker «ITV Studios Limited » or for Lorraine we have ITV Breakfast Limited

Oh good god, as has been said many times, it is a reference to the entity that produces the show, ITV Studios.

As in "live from ITV Studios' offices" not, "live from the ITV studios".

It's clearly obvious when they reword it for a special, it is talking about the production arm NOT the actual facility that the cameras are at.

Why is it so difficult for people.to understand?

Even more than that actually, ITV Studios are subletting studios 2 & 3 from Studioworks (rather than hiring). They are fully staffed with ITV Studios employees and they are ITV's studios for the duration of their sublease.

Aren't they damp-hired rather than dry-hired? I thought Studioworks provided engineering support still, but ITV Studios provided the crew? Or are ITV Studios also handling maintenance and engineering support?

Damp hire isn't unusual these days.

It would make sense if there was a core team of Studioworks staff providing certain support for the three studios. But 2&3 are certainly sub let rather than a traditional hire agreement.

I suspect Charlotte was in today, rather than Kate, due to Kate being in NYC visiting Good Morning America.

She is by far the strongest of the understudies and a real shame she was sidelined having been Susanna's main cover in the early days.

I thought it was more of a damp-hire buy-out. No sub-leasing. Studioworks own and operate the studios, but ITV Daytime have them 24/7 as a buy-out.

It's definitely a sub-lease rather than a hire agreement.

Of course, that's not to say they get the studios totally dry (in the same way you can lease space in a managed building with a caretaker, concierge etc).

Either way it's as much ITV Studios as (if not more than) when Good Morning Britain was at The London Studios.

There's also no BBC Studioworks facilities credit on any of the ITV Daytime shows (but there is on any ITV production made in TC1)

Why would she be visiting GMA?

I wonder if we'd ever get two male anchors covering the show, GMB usually has two female anchors of either Susanna, Kate, Ranvir and Charlotte being paired together when Ben or Piers are away but I don't think Piers or Ben have ever had male co-anchors.
