All the daytime shows cancelled by ITV for the World Cup, from This Morning to GMB

ITV’s daytime shows, including Good Morning Britain and This Morning, will face disruptions in the following weeks as the Women’s World Cup kicks off.

Live daytime programming is a staple of the channel, with Susanna Reid, Lorraine Kelly and Holly Willoughby mixing hard news with light entertainment every weekday. Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary are currently hosting This Morning during the summer holidays.

However, as the Women’s World Cup begins in host countries Australia and New Zealand on Thursday (20 July), ITV’s schedule will see a major shake-up until the final on Sunday 20 August.

Due to the major time difference Down Under, the majority of matches will be shown in the morning UK time. England’s Lionesses play their first match on Saturday (22 July), as they take on Haiti. The game will air at 10.30am UK time on ITV.

Across the tournament, the matches are split between the BBC and ITV, meaning only those airing on ITV from Monday to Friday will impact the channel’s popular daytime shows Good Morning Britain, Lorraine, This Morning and Loose Women.

You can find the full schedule for all the matches, including those airing on the BBC and weekends, here.
