Daybreak was a national British morning television programme broadcast on ITV from 6 September 2010 - 25 April 2014.[1] Daybreak replaced GMTV which aired its last weekday edition on 3 September 2010.[2] Daybreak launched three days later.[3]
In March 2014, ITV announced that the show would end later in 2014 to be replaced by Good Morning Britain (a name which harks back to the original Good Morning Britain programme, the UK's first commercial weekday breakfast television programme broadcast by the then Channel 3 breakfast franchisee TV-am).[4] Good Morning Britain made its debut on 28 April 2014.[5][6]

History
The decision to replace GMTV with Daybreak followed the full takeover of GMTV by ITV plc.[7] Daybreak and Lorraine made up the weekday output of ITV Breakfast. At weekends, children's programming filled this slot. An advertising campaign, promoting the new show, started on 23 August, with short break-bumpers in between the start and end of an advertisement break, broadcast during the evening schedule of ITV.

On 19 November 2011, it was reported that original presenters Adrian Chiles and Christine Bleakley had been axed.[8] Chiles confirmed that they were to depart from the programme in the New Year, however they left the show on Monday 5 December 2011 stating that "we were assured we could go with our dignity intact."[9][10][11] Dan Lobb and Kate Garraway took over on an interim basis until new presenters were announced.[12] On 8 December 2011, ITV chief executive Adam Crozier defended the decision of hiring Chiles and Bleakley, saying it was necessary to "take a risk".[13]
On 4 May 2012, Aled Jones and Lorraine Kelly were confirmed by ITV as the new permanent presenters,[14] Jones said "I am thoroughly looking forward to sharing the sofa every morning with such a consummate professional as Lorraine Kelly."[15][16][17][18]

On 28 August 2012, it was confirmed Singh would become the newsreader following the first hour of the programme and that BBC Weather presenter Laura Tobin will be joining the programme.[1][21] Garraway would present Daybreak on Fridays and cover for full-time host Lorraine Kelly in a new two-year contract.[22]
On 15 February 2014, Kelly announced she was to leave Daybreak later in the year. She had signed a new contract to now present Lorraine each Monday to Friday.[23][24]
On 4 April 2014 (three weeks before the Daybreak finale), Barbet co-presented for the final time, which made him the fourth presenter to leave the show after Chiles, Bleakley and Lobb.
On 10 April 2014, Kelly presented her final Daybreak before her Easter break, to concentrate on her own programme Lorraine, as part of a new contract she was offered.
On 25 April 2014, Daybreak came to an end, hosted by Jones and Garraway.
