Daybreak relaunch with Lorraine and Aled

Calm down mate

I've checked it out, news update at 9 was by Angela Corp, don't believe it was a last minute fill-in. It looks like an on-screen try out, she seems good, very sombre for today's news.

She should be good, Angela used to work overnights for Sky News and as a Reporter for 5 news when Sky had the contract.

She is currently a producer for ITV.

Thought she looked familiar...

Seems it is Angela Corpe, who has some history with Daybreak:

Every time the news summaries are on, I always think that the news desk should be parallel to the screen, the close up shot looks wrong with the background of the orange stripes.

Im sure Daybreak still uses the shot parrell to the screen making Ranvir & the news desk a different angle (facing the sofa). from watching this I take it this is ony done this way during Lorraine perhaps as the cameras have all moved around leaving no space to use the 'normal'' shot

Sorry, should clear up what I meant. I meant the physical news desk should be parallel rather than the camera angle.

One thing that annoys about the newsdesk set is the way the big screen is installed.

The way that section is cut out is shocking.

My brother wouldve done a better job!

Can we please stop the 'thought police' mentality on here?

Its getting stupid where you cant make a simple comment about a change of presenter, without someone piping up about privacy etc!

(And if people in the public eye didnt get themselves into a position where they appeared in the tabloids, then people wouldnt comment on them!)

By the looks of it, there was meant to be some digital set extension there too, but replaced it with frosted glass and a backlight.

Louisa James on the sofa with Matt - covering for Ranvir, Louisa is good did she present on the sofa for Daybreak V1, GMTV newshour?

It seems it was last-minute. Ranvir went home sick after 8am. Louisa James filling in on the Newshour this morning and doing a very good job IMO.
