   What do you think of Petra and Corin as the new Breakfast presenters? I quite like them together from the brief attention I paid to it this morning. |

   I like Corin, and thought he was good last year. 
 I missed the show this morning, might try watch some tomorrow.
 
 Ive never really liked Petra so unsure about her.

   I like Corin, but not a big fan of Petra.  Kind of not the same without Pippa, but may be with time I will grow to love it again.

 I am the same. I know it sounds silly but they look funny together, she is so much shorter and smaller than Corin, they don't look balanced    |

   It just feels like Pippa's having a few days off. And she'll be back soon lol I'm sure we'll all get used to Petra. I think she's kinda funny. There could be worse people hosting it    |

   Yeah it'll take awhile to get used to. I keep seeing Corin on there and thinking oh it's the business crap lol.   Was in Auckland briefly last year n kept staring at this car coz I was sure it was Petra Bagust! (I never see anyone remotely famous) and turns out it was her, they drove down the street to us and she had a chat bout what they were up to, she was really lovely! |

   I only say an hour yesterday. Petra isn't as annoying as I thought she would be, which is always a positive. And I seem to be the opposite to everyone else, I don't think Corin is doing so great...   He is nice eye candy though!

   Before it started I thought Corin was going to be awesome and I was really disappointed that Petra had been chosen to take over from Pippa...but 2 days in and I have to say I've been quite impressed by Petra.  I've never really liked her but she seems to be really natural and quite funny.
Corin is good but seems a wee bit nervous...once he relaxes I'm sure he'll be great.
 
 One thing I find quite funny is some of the stuff that people text in that they put at the bottom of the screen!

   She was rather boring this morning, and seemed at times to be trying way too hard. 
 Replace?

   I think they are doing a great job, I like Petra, she has always been good at the Xmas in the Park coca cola things , new things take time to get used to, I think she and Corin  are doing well together

   I think they are doing great so far- its only 2 days in and it will take a while for them to get the kind of chemistry that the previous presenters did.

   I'm not really sure about Corin.  I saw him do some 'tough' interviews last year and came across as trying to hard.  Petra is not to bad.  I guess they just need some time to settle into there new roles
