She added: “In a week of terrific growth in viewer numbers and share, it is fantastic news that ITN has a contract extension to produce GMB for ITV until at least December 2031. This is a massive show of confidence in our team Good Morning Britain, our journalism and our ratings. Thanks to the viewers – who are at the heart of everything we do.”
