London Live

Here's a clip from LL's new property show which actually looks very well made and the exact sort of thing they should be making... and then Charlie Sloth turns up. Shame this couldn't have been commissioned after they'd changed their target audience.

Also their head of commissioning/programming Johnathan Bosely finally announced his resignation today. Unsurprising given that he had nothing to do there any more.

Still going for the Yoof element by using 1Xtra's Charlie Sloth.

Good to see some more substantive responses to OFCOM's consultation. London 8 say directly and Channel 6 intimate that they would seek a judicial review of OFCOM's decision is they allowed ESTV's application.

C4 and C5 clearly protecting their interests too - especially C4 as it's obvious London Live wants to be E4.

Or E4+10 years... They have nowhere near the commissioning clout of the actual E4...

Apparently, Marc Edwards has left the organisation.

That'd explain the increased use of Gavin and Alex on Wake Up London. Even Claudia Liza covered on Friday.

Jade Worsley appears to be doing travel more often. Vanessa Baffoe was on location covering the Tall Ships Regatta in Greenwich on Friday.

Another member of LL's management is jumping ship. Jonathan Boseley is leaving.

A change to the breaking news strap.

It seems Power Lunch has been axed for Headline London. Amol Rajan stays as presenter on Thursday.

Breaking ....

Ofcom rejects ESTV-London Live's format change request.

Prepare for some toys to be thrown out the pram...
