Is Huw on holiday again then? He was only back for a few days.

He was back for the Conservative leadership result. He'll be back again at the end of October for Brexit.

Huw always takes an extended break across the summer. In fact he’s had less of a break this time as he was on a few times around when we got the new PM.

There is always a stage in the summer when even the regular cover presenters go off and you have even more rare appearances.

Well probably get Fiona, Mishal or Tina appearing by Friday.

Huw regularly does something for S4C / BBC Wales / BBC FOUR, for transmission later, around this time of year too.

Shouldn't that be 'BBC News at Ten with Simon McCoy' Wink

According to TV Home, BBC South East didn’t have a v/o name checking Simon and the local presenter so they played a generic one referencing BBC 1 South East but no presenters named. Surely using the network v/o would’ve been better?

Surely Simon does the One often enough that they would have a v/o they could butcher if they couldn't find somebody in the newsroom with a broadcastable voice to quickly record a new one?

It was a strange programme generally last night, almost half of it was taken up by 'current affairs', style reports, rather than, 'this is what happened today'

Has Huw Edwards lost weight? He looks fitter and younger than he did 15-20 years ago!

Yes, he's posted pictures on Twitter in the past showing him back in 2008 vs now.
