My experience at ITV's Good Morning Britain!

I started my day by waking up at 4.45am, I know what you're thinking, so damn early! I got picked up and driven to the ITV (not bad at all). 

We went through the early morning routine of getting the scripts ready incase they're needed for the guests and running through the timings of today's show.

Down to the studio! I got shown around backstage, the make up area, dressing room and the guests waiting room. Which was all very exciting!! It was also amazing meeting some of the guest on today's show, such as Martin Lewis, Richard Arnold, Dr Hillary and then of course the presenters themselves! Kate Garraway, Charlotte Hawkins, Laura Tobin, Sean Fletcher and John Stapleton. 

I was allowed on set behind the cameras to see the live broadcast of the show. It's amazing how big the set looks on screen when in reality it's quite small and intimate. The presenters were laughing and joking around with each other off camera and sneakily eating breakfast as well. It was great to feel the atmosphere of the show and talk to the camera men as well! I even had a few photos taken on the set of Good Morning Britain. 

The gallery is just amazing!  Having all the screens running with the live show as well as people who are waiting to go on air, such as in Milton Keynes. The script reader along side the actual footage and all the people working together to make the show a success. The hustle and bustle of the very quiet room was just brilliant to see as you actually get a chance to see the people that make the show. 

I was lucky enough to meet the guest on the show and have a good chat with them before and after they went on air. It's quite strange meeting people you see on TV all the time!  it's pretty surreal!!

I also had the opportunity to talk and have a picture taken with Scott Mills, who was a guest on Lorraine's show, to talk about his Strictly appearance and he kindly offered a photo in hope that I would vote for him on Saturday! I have to say that was very strange, meeting someone who you listen to on the radio every day, but he was just as lovely as he seems. 

I was also taken on a tour around the studios to see the different sets, and the backdrops to some of them as well, such as The Graham Norton Show. It's amazing how all these great shows are all shot in the same studios! 

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to go on the This Morning set.  They were rushing around in preparation for the show and didn't want to intrude or cause a hassle, but my time on GMB and a quick pop in to Lorraine was utterly amazing and I'm so very lucky and grateful to be able to do that! 

Me being me, managed to get lost on the way to Kings Cross and had to make the desperate 'I'm lost' phone call to my friend who thankfully told me the way. I had an amazing time in the studio and on set (despite the 4.45am start and the oh so painful feet!) so thank you Good Morning Britain for having me! @GMB.  I might even be lucky enough to go back another day, fingers crossed! Such a fantastic start to my day and it was only 11 o'clock!
