Good Morning Britain is set to be cancelled alongside a number of other shows in a shock ITV scheduling shake-up.
The show hosted by Susanna Reid has been cancelled on Friday for the FIFA Women’s World Cup which starts in Australia and New Zealand next week.
However, GMB is not the only show to be axed as there will be no This Morning and Loose Women on Thursday.
Instead Lorraine Kelly will be hosting a bumper show on Thursday so fans get their daytime TV fix.
The World Cup tournament will kick off with Norway vs New Zealand on Thursday morning.
If the Lionesses triumph it will be an extraordinary achievement following the Euro 2022 championships as they would become the first senior England side to win two major football tournaments back-to-back.
Their rivals include four-time contest winners the United States and Germany who have won five of their last eight games.
A number of England’s Euros heroes were on the plane that arrived in Brisbane for the tournament, including Lucy Bronze, Alessia Russo and Chloe Kelly.
But there are also six players in Sarina Wiegman’s squad who were not part of the victorious side on home soil last year.
The list is a mix of old faces making their return and young guns hoping the start of their international career is a successful one.
Both BBC and ITV will be airing coverage of all 64 World Cup matches including England’s clashes with their group D rivals Haiti, Denmark and China.
