BBC viewers were left baffled when the beloved daytime show Morning Live vanished from the schedule without warning. The programme, hosted by Gethin Jones and Helen Skelton, usually airs weekdays on BBC One, offering a mix of lifestyle advice, consumer tips, and celebrity interviews.
However, fans tuning in on Wednesday were met with an unexpected replacement. Instead of the usual cheerful banter and practical segments, BBC One aired a special news report covering the latest political developments.
Why Was 'Morning Live' Taken Off Air?
The sudden disappearance of Morning Live was due to extended coverage of a major political announcement. BBC schedulers made the last-minute decision to prioritise breaking news, leaving regular programming temporarily sidelined.
A BBC spokesperson confirmed: "We occasionally adjust our schedule to accommodate significant news events. Normal programming will resume shortly."
How Fans Reacted
Devoted viewers took to social media to express their confusion and disappointment. One fan tweeted: "Where’s #MorningLive? My morning routine is ruined!" while another joked: "Did Gethin and Helen finally run out of steam?"
Despite the disruption, the show is expected to return to its usual slot once the news coverage concludes.
