ITV’s Lorraine is on borrowed time. For nearly 15 years its effusive host Lorraine Kelly has been smiling aggressively through fashion shows and diet tips and Hollywood gossip, but now, in a round of major cuts to its daytime productions, ITV bosses are axing it by half, giving 30 extra minutes to Good Morning Britain and getting rid of its off-season shows altogether.
