BBC Breakfast News 1986 – 1989

A new upmarket look for Breakfast Time was introduced on 10th November 1986, the programme now rebranded “BBC Breakfast Time”. Gone were Frank’s sweaters and the sofa in favour of the serious news format. Francis Wilson was granted a reprieve though, and stayed with Breakfast Time until 1992.

The studio was given a minor refresh in 1989.
