Zeinab did do a few shifts on the News Channel and even did the Five but you could probably count on one hand the number of times she appeared.

I totally believe you of all people, just can't find any evidence and I do recall her being objective to having being categorised as being within a certain bracket. In fact I recall her being rather peeved!

Yes.

For the evening & late weekend bulletins if it's the same presenter on the same day I count it as one programme. If it's one presenter on the evening then someone else on the late then it's counted as one programme for each of them. For example, if Ben Brown done both the evening and late on a Saturday, that would be counted as one programme for him. Although (like what happened in Jan 2013) if Sue Thearle done the early evening and Kate Silverton done the late, that would count as one programme for each of them.

Sophie at a weekend? Christ. What of such significance triggered that?

She presented the Saturday following the General Election so could have been linked to that?

Ah, right. I'm suprised they didn't have Huw booked for that shift considering that election was going to be one of the most "indecisive" and "almost certainly" a hung parliament. But that explains it, as I remember being pumped for a dramatic week only to find out that the conservatives won a majority and that there wouldn't be any of the coalition talks or whatever.

I remember Huw doing a 21:55 programme after the 10 election though. From Downing St, on a Saturday.
