Victoria Wood's All Day Breakfast is a 50-minute television comedy special, written by and starring comedian Victoria Wood. It was broadcast on BBC One on Christmas Day 1992.

The show was essentially a parody of British daytime magazine programmes and the sketches were linked by Duncan Preston and Wood as husband and wife daytime TV presenters 'Martin Cumbernauld' and 'Sally Crossthwaite', lampooning the real husband and wife presenting team Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan and their daytime magazine show This Morning. Wood said in a radio interview around the time that she just found the idea of a married couple presenting a television show funny, and also stated that Madeley and Finnigan said they both loved her parody of them.

This was Wood's first sketch show since the phenomenally successful Victoria Wood As Seen On TV ended in 1987, and included most of the same regular cast. It also included a new 'mini-soap' entitled "The Mall", which featured the return of Mrs. Overall (played by Julie Walters) and the establishment of her own branch of Acorn Antiques.

Victoria Wood's All Day Breakfast has yet to be released on any home video format. The UK distributor 2 Entertain confirmed that a DVD release of the show and of the 1994 80-minute special Victoria Wood: Live in Your Own Home, were being considered for 2010, but as of 2016, the release has not materialized.
