 Good Morning Britain has been taken off air in a host of ITV cancellations as the channel aims to reshuffle its schedule. The long-running fixture will not be aired during its usual slot on Friday alongside other shows who saw their running times swiped from them over the coming weeks. Loose Women and This Morning will also take a break during their scheduled broadcasting times on Thursday. The shake-up in daytime TV programming comes ahead of the Women's World Cup kick-off in Australia and New Zealand. Due to the global time zones, the tournament's matches will begin earlier in the UK and so daytime TV scheduling is set to suffer. Despite other ITV shows re-jigging their airtime, Lorraine fans were in luck after it was announced the chat show would host an extended show instead during her allocated hours.
