Is GMB live or isn't it? Because I noticed Ben say just before himself and Susanna did the Ice Bucket Challenge 'we are now live' as if they aren't live normally?

I just don't know what to say to that. I don't think that deserves a serious response.

Apparently it's live on ITV+1, with ITV[1] showing it an hour ahead of it's live broadcast.

I think it's recorded about 8 weeks or so in advance. Just like Coronation Street.

GMB have a very special machine that can deliver them the news of the date that they are about to pre record which is why there normally is a lot of showbiz rubbish.

It is actually broadcast ahead of time, from a strange future where the only media outlet left available is ITV.

What I mean is, I see the 6am open on the ITV website before 6am, all I want is a little help to make me understand, yet all I get is sarcastic comments.

Maybe it's your clocks?

No, on itv.com it says 5:35 and a clip of the 6am open is up.

Maybe they pre-record the headlines? It's not unheard of...

The text headlines are posted online before the show begins, and once the show starts then a video of the live 6am is posted on the page but the 'time updated' doesn't seem to change and shows the original time the post was posted.
