Good Morning Britain (often abbreviated to GMB) is a British breakfast programme, broadcast on weekdays from 6:00 to 8:30 am on ITV. Good Morning Britain originally launched in 1983 for TV-am before being replaced by GMTV and later Daybreak. Good Morning Britain relaunched on 28 April 2014, after Daybreak was cancelled. As of Autumn 2017, Good Morning Britain has around 700,000 viewers tuning in daily (with an audience share of 20% and a peak of 1 million viewers) despite the programme previously struggling in the ratings.
So far there have been various main presenters; from the beginning in April 2014, the hosts were Susanna Reid, Ben Shephard, Charlotte Hawkins and Sean Fletcher, but in January 2015, Reid and Shephard became the two main hosts, with Hawkins reading the news and Fletcher, as sports editor, presenting the sports news. In September 2015, Shephard cut his appearances to just two days a week, with Kate Garraway covering the other three until November 2015 when Piers Morgan joined the presenting line-up. Garraway is currently a co-host on Thursdays and Fridays, often joined by Shephard.

Good Morning Britain is broadcast from Studio 5 at The London Studios where GMTV was brought from during its seventeen year run.

Good Morning Britain is a news, lifestyle, showbiz and entertainment magazine programme which informs the day ahead, bringing the latest news, sport and weather headlines to the nation. The early-morning show is interspersed with celebrity interviews, human-interest features, showbiz updates, financial advice, political news, health items and live reports from locations across the UK and around the world.
2014
Good Morning Britain launched on 28 April 2014, with four main presenters – Susanna Reid, Ben Shephard, Charlotte Hawkins and Sean Fletcher. In-depth news stories were presented, as well as shorter bulletins and headline updates. Sports news was also featured with Fletcher, and Shephard also contributed when Fletcher was unavailable. Weather bulletins are presented by Laura Tobin, with Alex Beresford standing in when Tobin is unavailable. Entertainment news takes place with Richard Arnold.
Reid, Shephard and Hawkins all presented 4 days a week, with Fletcher presenting every day. When Reid wasn't present, Hawkins took her place. When Hawkins was unavailable or standing in for Reid, either Kate Garraway or Ranvir Singh would take her place. John Stapleton would present in place of Shephard when he was unavailable.
Between 13 June and 11 July, the team reported on the 2014 FIFA World Cup with Fletcher live from Brazil with all the highlights and reaction. They also utilised special graphics and music adapted especially for the event. Up until September, one of the presenting team would read a news bulletin at 09:00 for sister show Lorraine.
On 19 September, there was an extended Scottish Independence Referendum special from 06:00 until 10:00, with Reid and Shephard presenting live from Edinburgh, while Hawkins and Singh presented from the studio in London.
On 2 December, Phillip Schofield co-hosted Good Morning Britain as part of a 24-hour TV presenting challenge for Text Santa. He also interviewed David Cameron live from 10 Downing Street later in the programme.
2015
The programme had a refreshed start to its second year on-air, with a lighter theme tune, and slight alterations to the set. The old desk had been replaced with a much smaller one, with the logo lit up at the front, and there are now only three presenters behind it instead of four. Timings throughout the show were also changed. News bulletins remain the same, however only one sport bulletin takes place, and weather bulletins and regional news have moved their slots.
The presenting team also changed. Reid and Shephard continued as main presenters, while Hawkins became newsreader, and Fletcher was appointed sports editor.
In January, Hawkins left for maternity leave. During this time, Garraway covered for the majority of the week, with Stapleton and Singh also covering at times. When either Reid or Shephard were unavailable, Garraway became the main presenter. Once Hawkins returned in June, she became newsreader three days a week. Fletcher acted occasionally as a stand-in newsreader.
During the week of 13 April, former Daily Mirror editor Piers Morgan guest presented the show. He presented alongside Reid and Garraway.
On 8 May, there was an extended General Election special from 6:00am until 9:25am, with Reid and Tom Bradby presenting in the studio, replacing Shephard who was in the studio until 6:50am when he went down to present from the South Bank to talk to voters.
On 14 May, sister show Lorraine was broadcast from the Good Morning Britain studio due to industrial action at ITV.
John Stapleton left the show in July, marking the end of his ITV Breakfast career.
On 24 July, Good Morning Britain broadcast a special programme live from inside Buckingham Palace with Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway. They presented a majority of the programme from inside the royal residence. Throughout the show, they broadcast a regal tour around all the state rooms reviewing some of the prominent objects and paintings which are displayed. Laura Tobin was live from the Palace Gardens with the weather. Hawkins and Singh were in the studio with news bulletins.
On 4 August, the programme was interrupted by a fire alarm 7 minutes before the show was going to end. They were talking to Emmerdale stars Charley Webb and Anthony Quinlan who were live from West Yorkshire. The fire alarm sounded mid-interview and the studio had to be evacuated. They left viewers with a pre-recorded standby programme to fill the timeslot, followed by a pre-recorded episode of sister show Lorraine', before the programme came live on-air at 8:50am.
From September, Shephard had his shows cut down to two a week, with Garraway covering the other three. By this time, Garraway had become a main presenter with Hawkins still in the newsreader position. On 9 September, Reid presented parts of the show live from outside Buckingham Palace, as she reported on the Queen's Royal Milestone. Garraway and Singh also presented from the studio.
On 16 November, Reid presented the majority of the programme live from Paris, in the wake of the Paris Attacks the Friday prior. Hawkins and Garraway also presented news bulletins from the studio.
On 23 November, Piers Morgan[4] joined the team as a permanent presenter, following his earlier guest week. He now presents three days a week. A few days later, the programme's political editor Sue Jameson left the show, to move to Australia.
2016
The format remained the same throughout 2016.
On 29 February, the programme was dedicated to the 88th Academy Awards, with specially made opening titles, theme music and graphics.
On 22 March, the show was extended to 10:30am to cover the breaking news of the Brussels bombings. Morgan and Reid presented hard-hitting coverage of the news shortly after the report broke out at 7:15am. The extended coverage meant that sister show Lorraine and The Jeremy Kyle Show were both cancelled, although Lorraine did start for the first 10 minutes. The following day, Reid presented coverage of the aftermath live from Brussels, whilst Morgan and Hawkins presented from the studio.
On 25 March, the programme was due to be broadcast but was incompetent due to an evacuation at The London Studios because of a fire just before 7:00am. The fire took 2 hours to fully extinguish. Filling the timeslot was a pre-recorded standby episode of the programme, with Shephard and Reid, followed by an episode of Dinner Date. Sister show Lorraine was broadcast as normal from 8:30am, since its Friday edition is normally pre-recorded.
Between 28 March and 8 April, Jeremy Kyle and ITV newsreader Mark Austin were guest presenters for the Easter break. Austin returned for a further 2 editions on 31 May and 1 June.
On 24 June, the show was again extended to 9:25am to cover the result of the EU Referendum, with Morgan and Reid presenting from the studio. As the result was announced, Morgan and Reid presented hard-hitting coverage of the outcome, as well as coverage of David Cameron's resignation.
On 22 July, Good Morning Britain broadcast a second royal edition of the programme live from inside Buckingham Palace with Kate Garraway and Ranvir Singh. They presented a majority of the programme live from inside the royal residence. Throughout the show, they broadcast a regal tour around all the state rooms, reviewing some of the prominent objects and paintings which are displayed. Laura Tobin was live from the Palace Gardens with the weather. Hawkins was in the studio with news bulletins.
Morgan and Reid didn't present the show during August, due to the summer holidays. During this time, Shephard, Garraway, Hawkins and Singh alternated. They also presented coverage of the Rio Olympics for the majority of the month with Nick Dixon live from Rio de Janeiro with all the highlights. They had adapted special graphics and theme music to mark the event.
On 19 August, sister show Lorraine was broadcast from the Good Morning Britain studio due to technical problems in its regular studio.
On 5 September, coinciding with the return of Reid and Morgan, there was a refresh, with some minor changes made to the set, such as a new modified desk with new lighting and a perspex glass top. Furthermore, the wood panelling was replaced with white panels in the sofa area and weather area, with the latter receiving a new weather screen. The studio's accent lighting was also changed from orange to yellow. Graphic changes were also made, with a new over the shoulder graphic as well as a new Coming Up screen.
On 3 October, new weather graphics were introduced, coinciding with ITV Weather's graphical refresh.
On 9 November, the show was extended up until 9:25am covering the latest news and results of the US presidential election, with Reid and Morgan live in New York City, Ranvir Singh in Washington D.C and correspondents with reaction from across the United States.
