Does anybody know what has happened to Elaine Willcox from Granada Reports.?.

She hasn't been seen since before the re-launch in September last year.

I was wondering if she may have been on Maternity Leave.

I was thinking that. She always looked pregnant to me. Last time I saw her was on a lunchtime bulletin with the old Light blue CSO Studio doing the news. It was a strange day I remember as the 10:55, 12:45, 3:00, 6:00 and late news all had a different presenter that day. Apart from that day not seen her much.

BTW, Has anyone seen Maria Wooden Gearing doing any presenting from the CSO studio lately, or is she now just doing outside reports cos she’s so bad at reading the news?

Oh...one last Granada Reports thing. Bring Back Tony Wilson. I miss him shouting as he reads and leaning right forward on the desk in the CSO studio instead of sitting straight like the other do. I miss his glasses on the tip of his nose as he reads too.

I would imagine Maria has had a break over Christmas like some of the others seem to have had. Lucy hasn't been seen since just before Christmas.

Did Michelle May present the News on Sunday 28th December, Granada haven't updated that Slot on the SPECIAL Regional News Site.
