How can she be 60? She just can’t be. Who’s messing with us?


Is it her own 60th, or that of the character she plays?

Here we go again. Someone else that doesn't know the definition of the word 'persona'.

It’s now Colonel Lorraine Kelly!

That was nice. Good tv. They must’ve known that Lorraine might descend into tears, hence having Ben also in the studio to hold things together.

Honorary Colonel of the Army Cadets of the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.

Or alternatively a poster just having a bit of a tongue-in-cheek joke.

This place probably gets more annoyed at the Lorraine Kelly actor jokes than the 'real' Lorraine Kelly.

Because she has the ability to mute people that make the same jokes over and over on Twitter. A luxury not yet afforded on TVForum (more's the pity).

Does anyone know why Ben Shephard changed his outfit for the last part of GMB to match what he was wearing on pre recorded Lorraine? Did they really go that far to try and hide how it isn’t live?

Hadn’t even thought of that! How ridiculous!!
Brekkie and alexhduk gave kudos

It was a pretty odd conversation immediately before it as well. Ben used the past tense and said something like 'wait until you see what I had for her' while Ranvir was phrasing everything to suggest it was about to happen live.

They made it look like Ben did go straight from GMB to host Lorraine live, however, the gap between seeing Ben on GMB and seeing him on Lorraine was only about ten seconds so it was all a bit silly and sloppy overall.

Also, just as a fun aside, Ben Shephard will have been on air for four and a half hours over the course of today's 'daytime' schedule, (Good Morning Britain, Lorraine, Tipping Point).

I was going to say about this. If you cast back to when Piers hosted the 35th anniversary edition, it took him about 20 seconds to get from studio to studio. Ben seemed to manage it in 10, with no breathlessness.

When is the Friday show recorded? They surely have to start striking the Loose Women set as soon as the Mon-Thu live shows have finished?

I’d imagine that they’d record it earlier whilst GMB is on the air.

Though wouldn't Ben have been doing GMB on Thursday?
