Why is today’s This Morning pre-recorded?

Updated: Fans tuning into ITV’s This Morning today were greeted with a pre-recorded edition.

The programme had faced a possible delay following a power fault at the studios, but fans tuned into see pre-recorded highlights introduced by Ben and Cat.

Lorraine had indicated that This Morning might not get underway until 11am, which could still mean it goes live, later.

Who was meant to be on This Morning today?

Today’s programme was due to feature:

• Jo Brand – joining the show for a chat.
• Tilly Ramsay – appearing as a guest.
• Sharon Marshall – bringing viewers the latest news and gossip from the world of soaps.

Is Lorraine on ITV today?

The earlier scheduling uncertainty also prompted questions about Lorraine, particularly after viewers were warned that This Morning could be starting later than usual.

The suggestion of an 11am start caused confusion about the ITV daytime timetable, but the studio power fault has now been resolved and This Morning is confirmed to begin at 10am.

Is Loose Women cancelled today?

Loose Women is scheduled also air as normal today.

Despite the technical problems that initially threatened to disrupt the morning schedule, ITV’s daytime programming is continuing as planned.

Viewers can therefore expect the usual line-up of daytime television, with This Morning starting at 10am and Loose Women following in its regular slot.

What happened to the This Morning studios?

A power fault at the studios caused the disruption to ITV’s morning broadcasting arrangements.

The technical issue raised the possibility of a delayed start for This Morning, with 11am mentioned as a potential new start time.

For viewers, that means business as usual: This Morning starts at 10am, just with a pre-recorded edition.
