ITV schedule as Loose Women returns and This Morning and GMB air special shows

Those tuning in to ITV this morning might notice something different.

The broadcaster has announced a dedicated day of programming for ITV NHS Day.

ITV has partnered with NHS Charities Together #OneMillionClaps for the special day as the official broadcast media partner and will appeal to viewers to donate to the NHS and send messages of support to their staff.

As part of the specially-themed content, which will impact all of the flagship ITV Daytime shows, Loose Women, which is currently off air, will make a return.

The morning schedule will go ahead as usual, but will be dedicated to bespoke content throughout, while ITV will again broadcast the Clap for our Carers "pause for applause" at 8pm.

This is what the ITV schedule will look like today.

ITV NHS Day will kick off at 6am with Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid for Good Morning Britain.

It will then be handed over to GMB with Lorraine at 9am.

Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford will present This Morning at 10am and then Loose Women will air a one-off special at 12.30pm.

The episode will see panellists Christine Lampard, Brenda Edwards, Stacey Solomon and Nadia Sawalha broadcast from their homes for a pre-recorded special as part of ITV’s NHS Day.

Across the day, viewers will hear the stories and heartfelt gratitude from survivors of coronavirus and their families.

Managing director of ITV Daytime Emma Gormley said: "Like everyone else in the country we want to say a massive thank you to our NHS heroes.

"We look forward to a day of extra special programmes in celebration and gratitude for our amazing NHS staff and all they continue to do for us."
