The Bigger Breakfast had just completed its very first run, and was supposed to return to the house for the Johnny & Denise relaunch of the ordinary 7-9 show.
But following the sudden news over the weekend of the death of Diana, the relaunch was delayed untill the following monday, as Channel 4 hastily extended the The Bigger Breakfast into another week, as a news alternative service for children.
Jayne Middlemiss was a last minute stand-in. The whole thing was entirely unplanned.
Thanks for the info. I remember Richard and Vanessa Feltz presenting the show on Monday from outside Buckingham Palace, so I'm guessing this show is from Tuesday 2nd September.
Yes, the Monday show was branded 'Big Breakfast News Special' (the word 'The' was dropped from the title for the very first time). As far as I can recall, it ended at 9 and then the kids shows from 9-12ish were put out without the umbrella branding of The Bigger Breakfast.
Then from Tuesday - Thursday The Bigger Breakfast returned.
Friday saw the second 'Big Breakfast News Special', this time presented live from the front garden of the house with Ex-BB newsreader Peter Smith returning to host.
i loved the BIGGER BREAKFAST just as much definately launched Jayne and mEL'S CAREERS TOO
