Two huge ITV daytime shows will be pulled off air for WEEKS in a schedule shake-up that will leave fans livid.
Viewers are usually treated to Good Morning Britain, followed by Lorraine, This Morning and then Loose Women every weekday on the channel.
But from next Monday ((9 March) things will look a little different on your TV screens.
Good Morning Britain will air from 6am, all the way through to 10am and then This Morning will start, and wrap up at 12:30pm.
This means that Lorraine, which usually airs between 9:30am and 10am, and Loose Women, which is on our screens weekdays for one hour from 12:30pm, will not be on.
Step-in host Christine Lampard, who has presented Lorraine on Friday due to Lorraine Kelly’s sore throat, told viewers: ‘That’s all for today, Lorraine will be back in a few weeks time.

‘Have a lovely weekend, we’ll see you soon!’
At the end of Friday’s episode of Loose Women, anchor Kaye Adams let viewers know: ‘It’s your last Loose Women for a few weeks.
‘But we will be back next month!
‘Until then, take care. Have a fabulous weekend and Easter, and we’ll see you very soon!’
Last month it was revealed that Lorraine and Loose Women would be off air for a WEEK after brutal cuts saw their episodes slashed in half.
They have been removed from the schedule to make way for the ever-popular horse racing event, the Cheltenham Festival, which kicks off on March 10.
The current TV guide, which only goes up to March 16, states that Good Morning Britain will air from 6:00am to 10:00am, followed by This Morning until 12.30pm.
It is not known what the rest of that week holds – however Kaye stated on Friday that Loose Women will be back in April.

Back in May last year, it was revelaed that Lorraine and Loose Women were set to be axed for half the year and Lorraine’s runtime has been slashed by 30 minutes, as ITV Daytime bosses announced huge cuts today with job losses in excess of 220.
Host Lorraine Kelly has faced the brunt of the cuts with Good Morning Britain now taking her 9:00am to 10:00am slot for 22 weeks of the year.
For the remaining 30 weeks of the year, Lorraine will present five days a week, meaning her Friday stand-in presenters Ranvir Singh and Christine Lampard are no longer needed.
It was revealed that Lorraine’s show would be slashed in half, running for just 30 minutes from 9:30am to 10:00am.
ITV sources told MailOnline at the time that they have decided to cut resources on their daytime schedule so that the network can invest in more drama programmes.
It was also announced that ITV Studios will no longer make Good Morning Britain but instead it will be made by ITN – the organisation which makes ITV News.
