ITV Daytime Shows Face Dramatic Shake-Up

What's Happening?

Fans of ITV's daytime shows will experience a shake-up this week as Aintree Racecourse's horse racing affects the schedules of This Morning and Loose Women.

Changes to Shows

This Morning will be extended by an extra 30 minutes, running until 1 pm instead of the usual 12:30 pm sign-off. On the other hand, Loose Women will be axed completely on Thursday and Friday to make way for the annual horse-riding competition.

Previous Shake-Ups

This isn't the first time ITV daytime fans have faced schedule changes. Loose Women was canceled last Wednesday due to the Government's Spring Statement, and earlier in March for the Cheltenham Festival. This Morning also had to finish 15 minutes early in mid-March.

Special Edition

This week, Loose Women fans enjoyed a special episode called Loose Men, led by Craig Doyle with Jeff Brazier, Jordan Banjo, and Iain Stirling discussing toxic masculinity, inspired by the Netflix series Adolescence.
