Kay Burley vows to take on Piers Morgan with new breakfast show – 'It's my turn'

The early morning TV war steps up tomorrow at 7am when Sky News’s Kay Burley@Breakfast takes to the airwaves. As Brexit comes to the boil, channel bosses think it’s the perfect time to have their star name hosting a new show from the heart of Westminster. But Kay says it’s not just MPs who will be running scared – Piers Morgan should be worried too.  

She told the Sunday Express: “The bad boy of breakfast has had all of his own way for far too long. It’s my turn to make politicians’ blood run cold.” 

Morgan has been a morning menace for politicians on Good Morning Britain since 2015. 

His combative interview style and love-hate relationship with co-host Susanna Reid helps the show hit the headlines, with clips “going viral” most mornings. 

Now, with rumours that he is about to head Down Under for the up-coming series of I’m A Celebrity…, Kay says she’s ready to steal his thunder.

She said: “While Piers is potentially away chewing on kangaroo anus in the jungle, I plan to wine and dine with the movers and shakers of Westminster!” 

The agenda-setting two-hour show, from Monday to Thursday each week, sees her move from her afternoon slot on Sky News.
