A daily 30-minute Egyptian TV program aired during the holy month of Ramadan, highlighting the various personal qualities of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Each episode focuses on a specific aspect of his personality — such as preacher, conqueror, host, leader, merchant, husband, and fasting worshipper.

The Sunday Programme was GMTV's political programme. It launched on 16 October 1994 as a replacement for Sunday Best, which was GMTV's original Sunday morning magazine. The programme aired between 7:00 am and 8:00 am, just after The Sunday Review (a 60-minute signed review of the week's news).
It was originally presented by Alastair Stewart, who left in 2001, and Steve Richards took over. From 1995 to 2001, the programme was called Alastair Stewart's Sunday Programme, but this was changed when Alastair left in 2001. In 2008, the programme was quietly axed and replaced with children's programming.
The Sunday Review was a 60-minute signed review of the week's news, replacing Sunday Best on GMTV. A previous incarnation had been broadcasting since early 1993 under the name "Timeshift"
As part of the later rebrand that took place at the start of 2009, LK Today was rebranded as GMTV with Lorraine, to coincide with GMTV Today changing back to GMTV. Lorraine moved for the first time into the main GMTV studio, instead of having her own part of the studio to host from.
In 1994, Top of the Morning was replaced with the GMTV-produced Quarter to Nine. In June 1994, Kelly went on maternity leave, returning in November 1994 to do a mother and baby slot. This led to her becoming the main presenter of Nine O'Clock Live. The show proved so popular that it moved to the earlier 8:35 am slot had been retitled Lorraine Live in the Autumn 1997.
Lorraine Kelly first began presenting Top of the Morning in January 1993. In March when Fiona Armstrong walked out of the main GMTV show, Lorraine moved to the GMTV slot and Fern Britton and Amanda Redington took over hosting Top of the Morning. Top of the Morning was produced by an independent production company.
