ITV Cancels Loose Women, Shortens This Morning for Chancellor's Statement

ITV has announced a significant reshuffle in its Wednesday daytime schedule, resulting in the cancellation of popular shows This Morning and Loose Women to make way for The Chancellor's Spring Statement. This announcement was made by Ruth Langsford, who informed viewers that Loose Women would not air at its usual time due to the special broadcast. The statement, delivered by Chancellor Rachel Reeves, will provide updates on the UK economy and is set to last for one hour and 35 minutes. This change follows Vanessa Feltz's departure from This Morning, highlighting broader shifts within ITV's programming. Both shows are scheduled to return to their regular slots the following day. Viewers are encouraged to tune in on Thursday for a return to normal scheduling.
