What could save Daybreak?

It just looks so bleak and depressing, even the set is dull! For the past 2 years and for the next several, the early morning news is going to be depressing for everybody (recession, cuts, job losses etc). I think they need to counteract this by having an upbeat lively, entertainment type show (minus the hundred aRAB in between and phone-in competitions :rolleyes:). Infact, all they needed to do was tweak GMTV a bit but retain the upbeat, bright and lively atmosphere they had.

ETA: Dan is a sexy mofo - they have to keep him and give him Adrian's job! :D
 
If they insist on touting their non-existent chemistry, they could probably get a drivetime show on a local radio station. Maybe BBC London or even LBC.
Not a breakfast show, as clearly they are not morning people.

I think Christine would be good on QVC. She could probably get a job there.

Adrian should probably focus on radio.
 
They have a sofa the size of a bus but try to sit on each others laps at one end making out they fancy each other.

Hey ITV .... Give it up ....They dont :D
 
Watching the set change is just sad:yawn:. They need to scrap daybreak, get rid of them two, move into a small studio without any windows, build a set which is cheap and cheerful, then get two no body presenters to host the show. It will soon have the ratings. Call it Good Morning. (GMTV) Job Done.
 
Can't see him ever wanting to do it but Steve Dixon would be a good choice. Warm, down to earth and enagaging but with the journalistic experience when it comes to breaking major news stories.

For a lot less than
 
A very off-putting thing for me is how Christine leans forward towarRAB the camera, people who do that in real life are invading your personal space and that's how it feels on TV too.

It's amazing she is doing that, it's an amateurs mistake.

Having them sitting so close together is also rather intimidating, like some kind of "televangelists" pushing a fund raising drive for their church.
 
Just to recommend Ian Hyland's take on Daybreak in today's News of the World and Carole Malone's view of Christine Bleakley in the same organ:D For once a Murdoch title not knocking the BBC:eek:
