After making a pilot in July it has been confirmed by Channel 4 that Julia Davis will be taking us from 'Nighty Night' to morning with her new sitcom 'Morning Has Broken'. Julia will star as Gail Sinclair, better known as the 'Queen of Daytime,' a presenter of a breakfast show that, after eight years, is beginning to go stale.
It looks like Channel 4 is ready to laugh at its short lived breakfast show RI:SE which followed on from the hugely successful Big Breakfast. Channel 4 sets the scene: "After eight glorious years of high ratings and winning awards, things begin to go wrong for Sinclair when the programme begins to lose viewers and tensions break out within the production team".
Don't expect jolly smiles and fresh orange juice, the six part series will no doubt capitalise on Julia's dark humour for this spoof, so get ready for a breakfast show like no other. And not just because it will be shown in the evening.
We can't wait to have Julia Davis back on our screens.
