I'd never have got that.Yes, it's the Newsnight desk - must have been left over from the night before (of course, Breakfast News wouldn't've aired on a bank holiday in those days). You can see it towards the end of this Newsnight with Huw Edwards from July 1997. It was a nifty set that - changeable backdrops, window panes and furniture allowed parts of it to be shared by Breakfast News, Newsnight and Working Lunch - nearly a decade before the Barcos were introduced. Though, the sharing didn't last too long - Newsnight returned to having their own set in February 1999. Here's a clip back on the blue place (from itsrobert) of the first few minutes of the transformation of the set from Newsnight into Breakfast.
I'm assuming that's the Newsnight desk if Breakfast News used the one below?
