I'd agree, it's quite a nice little thread.

oh, you're right, it's bringing up lots of nice little clips - I was just a bit confused about why now.

Plus it gives me an excuse to go down my VHS collection to see what BB stuff i managed to save before the rest of my BB collection went in to storage!

Just been looking through some of my unread PMs and found this rather odd delight from TopCat.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have been around on this forum twice the length of time you have, and would like to see your arguments FOR the BBC instead of simply arguing against why I might be wrong. Could you not do that?
Regards

To be fair, this is probably the first time in their lives they have been twice the length of anything

And to be fair, there is more interesting, enlightening discussion on one page of it than in 135 pages of that fucking Good Morning Britain thread.Jason wrote:Because the general discussion of the show that formed in a thread in the gallery about the show was taking the attention away from the mock it's self.thegeek wrote:To save me trawling through umpteen pages of the Big Breakfast thread, could someone tell me why there's so much discussion about a show which ended 12 years ago?
On the subject of which, I have been shot down by anoilyrag, the ITV Breakfast insider for daring to suggest that the idea that 'GMB is still bedding in and will triumph eventually without a revamp' is highly unlikely. But he works for ITV and I don't, so what would I know.

Says a lot about some members on the forum that I was hesitant and nervous to post this in the Good Morning Britain thread. I am waiting to get replies from bullies on the site telling me that I am stupid or whatever...

Not suggesting that Good Morning Britain is cut - but a few years down the line - would a change in format (to make it more newsy) work?
I think the idea of the news hour was great - but I didn't like the idea of it clashing with BBC News at 6 - hence, I wonder if it would be good for breakfast television.
Perhaps they could do this sort of news hour from 6 - 7 like the GMTV and Daybreak MKII days... I personally think this has potential.
I'm not necessarily saying that ITV should definitely do this, but I am just suggesting.
Cue the angry TV Forumers...

I think you make quite a good point. I wondered a while back how feasible a more-regionalised breakfast show would be - to me it's no less feasible than having a half hour regional news programme in the evening.
It also says a lot about the forum that I would rather reply to you here than there

Well nobody's replied yet - but if a huge argument breaks out (which often does when someone makes a suggestion) then I'm counting on you for support!
