BBC online news.

EchoedSilence · 06/09/2025 18:25

BBC Breakfast.

Pepperedpickles · 06/09/2025 18:26

Whatever is on itv usually. And if that’s rubbish then I put some sort of travel vlog on from you tube. I know BBC is a better source of news etc but the format just bores me to tears.

No time for TV. Radio 2 whilst getting ready. 🤣

I love to watch BBC news whilst I drink my morning tea/coffee but the second my kids wake up they put CBeebies on so to avoid arguments and have 10 minutes without hearing “mum” or being tapped I put up with it and read BBC news articles on my phone.

Classic Doctors on U. News is often too depressing first thing. I catch up later in the day.

BeMellowAquaSquid · 06/09/2025 18:28

If my husband gets up first I’m guaranteed to get up to sky sports news. If it’s the kids it will be a Netflix thing like Wednesday. If I get up on my own I sit in total silence and relish the fact no one else is in my orbit! I do like a bit of Saturday morning kitchen though or a game show

Cantseetreesforthewood · 06/09/2025 18:28

Watch? Nothing. Quick glance through bbc news online, and get on with getting out of the house.

Coffeeishot · 06/09/2025 18:29

Bbc breakfast and then bbc2 its usually antiques road trip or something , i take painkillers in the morning so I.watch whatever the ",something " is until the medication kicks in

Pascha · 06/09/2025 18:29

R2 in the car. Nothing before that, I like silence

Loveduppenguin · 06/09/2025 18:30

What do you mean? When?

SauvignonBlanche · 06/09/2025 18:34

BBC Breakfast on in the background while I get ready, R4’s Today programme on the drive into work.

I’m a proper old fogey.😁

Meadowfinch · 06/09/2025 18:36

I don't. Too busy running around getting ds out the door and onto the school bus.

TV in our house is evenings only.

itsgettingweird · 06/09/2025 18:37

Get home from ds swim training about 7.30 and leave for work at 8. Usually have GMB on in the background but don’t really “watch” anything.

BBC R4 on the way to work.

BotterMon · 06/09/2025 18:39

The birds in the garden whilst drinking a coffee.

KateBushAgain · 06/09/2025 18:39

I watch YouTube on a tablet sitting at my dressing table doing my makeup , best part of the day .

Theextraordinaryisintheordinary · 06/09/2025 18:39

Don’t watch anything in the daytime.

SunnyD4ys · 06/09/2025 18:40

Norhing, why do you assume everyone watches things in the morning, that's not normal is it?

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 06/09/2025 19:11

I don't watch TV in the morning. I listen to the news on R4 on my way to work.

ScarlettOYara · 06/09/2025 19:13

R4 Today as I get ready for work.

Teenagerantruns · 06/09/2025 19:13

BBC news normally for a bit, or sometimes whatever comedy repeat is on channel 4.

Berlinlover · 06/09/2025 19:16

Sky News.
