The World Today

It's sad to say but there will be no The World Today next week, and I would have thought the same for the following week! So I wonder if they'll have a special on Friday evaluating the top world news stories that have happened over the year!

TV-am Question

Did TV-am ever feature regional optouts? I cannot seem to remember if they did or not. Also, has any one got the full versions of the Good Morning Britain or Daybreak theme, as all the ones I have found sound terrible! Thanks in Advance
