Absolute car crash of n interview as Peeta 'interviews' head of Hull City Council. 23/09/2019

Levy just wouldn't shut up so the leader of HCC was clearly getting seriously 'annoyed' he didnt get a chance to answer any questions properly & It was clearly a breach of practice guidlines. Unfortunately everyone is too frightened of challanging his Levyness.

They should know by now not let Levy interview anything.

Look North Leeds now has animated headline graphics.

Noticed that tonight's 10.25pm Look North Leeds Weather forecast contained both the regional forecast by Keeley Donovan - then she continued and did the national forecast? The programme did not rejoin the National forecast with Philip Avery at the end of the regional news. I flicked over to Midlands Today and they joined the national forecast as usual.

How long have Look North been doing their own UK forecast and extending their regional news programme to encompass this - and do any other regions do this?

(Not that I thought it was a bad thing, it was refreshing to see regional forecasters showing us their full complement of skills)

It's a pilot that some regions have been doing where they roll the late forecast into the regional one rather than have the two separate forecasts - I think Spotlight may also be taking part? I *think* it's been happening since the Reith implementation.

It’s been going on since March

Only Monday to Thursday though.

Talking about Keeley, the announcement played at 10pm said she was actually presenting the bulletin rather than doing the weather.

Like the new daytime presenter for 'Ull, Lizzie Rose. Very laidback and undramatic with her delivery, but also authoritative.

She has been doing the Breakfast bulletins for the last couple of days.

Look Levy have started an initiative to present the programme from different locations frequently for no apparent news reason, using this rather garish portable set.

DeMarkay and South Today gave kudos
