Breakfast TV
Anne Diamond
Thirty odd years on from the birth of breakfast TV in this country, the media are still talking about it – perhaps because from time to time, they still can’t get the programming right. Witness what’s been going on for the past few years at ITV. Well, tonight there’s yet another programme all about those early months. It's on BBC 2 tonight (“The Battle for Britain’s Breakfast” at 9pm) which claims to expose some of the skulduggery that went on behind the scenes. Just thought – when me and Nick (Owen) started on TVam all of those years ago, he was a fan and lifelong follower of Luton Town Football Club. Now, all these years later, he’s chairman and the club is more successful than ever. Who’d have thought? Certainly not him!
