ITV daytime favourite This Morning is going to be airing six times a week with Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes presenting a new Sunday morning show, it's been announced.
ITV is now hoping to ease our Sunday hangover with a special weekend show starting from the 20th January.

Regular weekday hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby announced the exciting news yesterday.
Phillip explained: "We have an exciting announcement to make for Sunday mornings, with a weekend episode of This Morning.
"Eamonn and Ruth will be taking you through the highlights of This Morning from that week with some exclusive guests and lots of weekend treats thrown in for good measure."

Holly added: "It's official, we'll be going on the telly six days a week. Lazy Sunday mornings couldn't get any better."
This Morning boss Martin Frizell has said that the Sunday show will be "an unmissable package of the week's most talked about moments", so if you miss it during the week you can finally catch-up.
Sunday's episodes will start at 10.30am like the weekday shows, but this time also means the show will be going head-to-head with Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer's Sunday Brunch on Channel 4 for viewers.

In a statement, Eamonn said: "We'll be there on Sundays to put the cherry on top of your best This Morning bits of the week.
"Not only will anything you've missed be featured, Ruth and I will also be adding our own fresh content that you won't have seen."
Ruth added: "Stay in your pyjamas, put your feet up and enjoy a Sunday on This Morning with us!"
