If that's all it is then it seems very unfair considering what a certain other ITV presenter gets up to.

Yet Piers Morgan remains. A huge loss, even in his current reduced role.
Ittr, JamesTV and Markymark gave kudos

I get the feeling Lucrezia might be on instead of Alastair tonight.

You didn’t see her doing the Evening News during the week very often, and after his long stint over new year he did say he wouldn’t be back until ‘the end of the month’ which is basically now.

Kylie Pentelow has presented her last ever Wales at Six. Is she now moving to Grays Inn Road permanently?

I'd guess she's moving back to ITV Westcountry. She was only maternity cover for Andrea Byrne, I think.

Her pinned tweet from the start of December confirms that the plan was for her to return to Westcountry in early February so no reason to think that has changed.

I guess she's had Maternity Cover Cover at ITV West then?

Noted in the Alastair Stewart thread, but I had no idea the Daily Mail had a 20% stake in ITN! You learn something new every day.

How long has this stake been in active?

Edit: since 1996 apparently.

Indeed, here is an article from the time.

Weirdly Nigel Dacre was once head of ITN at the same time that his infamous brother Paul Dacre was editor of the Daily Mail.

Interesting turnover and profit figures for ITN back in 1995. 17% profit isn’t bad at all.

I’d forgotten about the Dacre Brothers.
