Daybreak host Adrian Chiles has admitted that the morning show is a disaster, according to reports.
The show was launched with a huge fanfare as the replacement for GMTV.
However, since it aired viewers figures have been dropping as it proves unpopular with fans.
In a frank admission Chiles admitted the programme was one of the worst shows UK viewers have "seen in years".
Adrian revealed that he had considered quitting the programme as he thinks one the reasons Daybreak is not a hit is because he is grumpy, something he blames on the early starts.
He is quoted by the Daily Mail as saying: "Normally I'm pessimistic about absolutely everything.
"But God forgive me my arrogance, I tried being positive about this because I felt in my water it was going to be a storming immediate runaway success. And I was completely wrong."
The 43-year-old added that he had considered leaving the show, saying: "Sometimes I look at myself and think, `Do people really want to wake up to you?'
"Some days I have thought very definitely no, in which case my days are numbered."
He continued: "But I've changed my mind about that. I think it can work.
"The figures are getting a bit better. We've been having a laugh, it was a bit more like the old days and we felt a bit happier in our own skins."
