BBC BREAKFAST UNVEILS NEW SET

BBC Breakfast, the UK’s most watched morning news show, is getting a makeover for the first time in over a decade. An all-new multipurpose studio is being launched which will be shared with BBC Sport.

The state of the art space will be situated in Salford’s Media City. Sally Nugent and Jon Kay will be the first presenters to start the day from the studio on Monday 26 June.

The new space features some of the latest broadcasting technology, including high-tech GFX, whilst keeping the iconic red sofa at its heart. It is also larger than the previous studio and features three more cameras. The new state of the art screen technology will allow the BBC Breakfast team to tell stories in a creative, bold and imaginative way, and enable collaborative sharing across sites.

A new camera angle also highlights the position of the studio at the heart of BBC North operations within Salford Quay House where BBC Breakfast, Sport and Radio 5 Live are based.

BBC Breakfast airs every day from 6am on BBC One.
