CITV Breakfast (1999)

  • Kids
  • 210 min episodes
  • 12 seasons

CITV Breakfast is a British digital television station owned by ITV Breakfast Limited, part of ITV plc. It broadcasts every morning between 06:00 and 09:25. It was originally designed to complement its sister channel GMTV, and offered children's programming every day. On weekdays teleshopping was shown for the first half hour until 6.30am followed by Action Stations! until 9.25am. Weekends changed to pre-school programming, with Wakey! Wakey! airing 06:00 to 09:00 on Saturdays and Sundays. A teleshopping strand was featured on Saturdays and Sundays airing from 09:00-09:25. A repeat of The Sunday Programme was aired at 07:55-08:55 each Sunday from 1999-2008. The station closed down at 09:25, although viewers didn't notice any changeover between GMTV2 and CITV. On 17 March 2008, ITV2 and its one-hour timeshift channel have been broadcasting 24 hours a day, meaning GMTV2 programming moved from ITV2 to ITV4, broadcasting its usual hours. The stand continues to be simulcast on CITV. As of November 2006, a one hour delayed version of GMTV2 had been available on ITV2+1 on Sky and also on Freeview, running from 07:00 to 10:25, however due to the change from ITV2 to ITV4, GMTV2 was available one hour later on ITV4+1 on Sky Channel 180.

    Read synopsis

    The Big Breakfast was a British light entertainment television show shown on Channel 4 and S4C each weekday morning from 28 September 1992 until 29 March 2002 during which period 2,482 shows were produced. The Big Breakfast was produced by Planet 24, the production company co-owned by former Boomtown Rats singer and Live Aid organiser Bob Geldof. The programme was distinctive for broadcasting live from former lockkeepers' cottages commonly referred to as "The Big Breakfast House", or more simply, "The House", located on Fish Island, in Bow in east London. The show was a mix of news, weather, interviews, audience phone-ins and general features, with a light tone which was in competition with the more serious GMTV and even more serious BBC breakfast programmes.
