Jade Bullen previously gave Studio Insider a behind-the-scenes look into the early stages of her career. Now, she returns to share what a typical day (or rather, night) looks like in her current role as a program assistant for Good Morning Britain. While her weekly schedule varies depending on the rotation, this particular shift offers a revealing glimpse into the demanding world of breakfast TV.
Jade’s day starts when most people are winding down. Taking on the night shift means arriving at the studio in the early hours, long before the sun rises. Despite the unconventional hours, her role is critical to ensuring the morning broadcast runs smoothly. Tasks range from writing call sheets and printing presenter briefs to stocking up on newspapers and ensuring every detail is in place before they are live. It’s a job that demands both precision and energy, especially when many of her responsibilities must be completed before dawn.
Surprisingly, breakfast marks the halfway point of her shift, and by 9 am, when the show wraps up and viewers are just starting their day, Jade is clocking out. The hours may be tough, but the job is anything but dull.
As Jade has shared before, it’s her deep passion for TV and live production that fuels her through the challenging hours. Her enthusiasm and dedication are what keep her coming back shift after shift—proving that when you love what you do, even 2 am call times are worth it for Good Morning Britain.
