Yep - looked very nice indeed. Some fairly tripped-out graphics flashing all over the background though!

I think she is moving to London Tonight according to some previous posts on this thread anyway .I like her too she is much better than Mary and Andrea but my fav is Leyla .

Katie is going to be the co-presenter of the new ITV London News when it launches in April (and moves from the South Bank to Gray's Inn Road)

But there is no reason at all to assume she won't still make regular appearances on ITV1 and the News Channel.

What about the London Tonight Presenters and who will co anchor with Katie ? are Anna Maria Ashe and Lucy Alexander to be axed or will they move to the News channel ?.

Alastair Stewart and Katie Derham will co-present.

Don't know about the other LNN presenters. Lucy Alexander has done one shift on the News Channel recently though.

On another note, John Nicolson is back on the News Channel this evening.

Saw the sneak preview. Looks very grand, if a little cold.

Notice Mary's wispy hairstyle is possibly the WORST type to have when you are chromakeying - and it looked a bit ragged to me.

Was it my imagination or was there some kind of zoom/pan in there?
