Overview
- ITV staged a star‑studded 70th anniversary celebration at London’s Guildhall, hosted by Joel Dommett at the site of the broadcaster’s first 1955 transmission.
- Presenters including Cat Deeley, Olivia Attwood, Susanna Reid, Charlotte Hawkins and others were photographed arriving and leaving the event.
- Multiple outlets reported staff frustration over the timing of the party, citing plans to cut 220 of 440 daytime production roles; ITV declined to comment.
- From 2026, Lorraine is set to run 30 minutes for 30 weeks a year, Loose Women will move to seasonal runs, and Good Morning Britain will extend with production shifting to ITV News as daytime teams merge.
- Lorraine, Loose Women and This Morning will leave Television Centre in West London, with a move to The Hospital Club reported by the Daily Mail but not confirmed, as ITV says savings will be reinvested in other genres.
