Daybreak (TV-am)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Not to be confused with Daybreak (TV programme).

Daybreak was an early morning news programme on the former United Kingdom breakfast station TV-am. It ran from 06:00 to 07:00 with an emphasis on news stories. The first edition was broadcast on the TV-am launch date of 1 February 1983 and was presented by Robert Kee, and also Angela Rippon, presented in front of the TV-am newsroom. As TV-am's viewing figures fell after its launch, Daybreak was initially cut back to 30 and then 15 minutes, as well as moving to a green screen studio before being finally dropped when the station changed its programming in search of higher ratings.

The name was revived in 2010 for ITV's replacement for GMTV.^[1]
