Tyne Tees & Border/Look North (NE & Cumbria)

That’s new. Although Anglia, Channel TV and Wales have already had a catch up for a while.

The main 6pm programme for ITV Border they are unsure as to what it is actually called:

Quote:
Catch up: Watch ITV LOOKAROUND

You can catch-up with the ITV News Border programme on weekdays for 24-hours after it is broadcast on ITV. The programme is on-air at 6pm every day.

When available, you can watch the latest edition of Lookaround - covering Cumbria, Dumfries and Galloway and the Scottish Borders using the player above.

The full 30-minute ITV News Border programmes are generally available for 24 hours after the first transmission.”

Amy Lea has clearly made an impression with the Head of News to be promoted and to succeed Pam.
She joined Tyne Tees as a production journalist in 2015 and then a reporter in 2018.
Hopefully once Amy is settled into her new role she will feel more at ease and relax her “TV” voice, although it’s not as noticeable as ITV Weather Hub’s Amanda Houston.

Maybe Helen Ford gets promoted?


*Shudders*

However there is a Northumberland based journalist role advertised on ITV Jobs where Helen Ford is based.

Not necessarily. Channel’s and UTV’s impending change has already been announced.
It would be pleasant to see an internal promotion at Tyne Tees with several long serving reporters (still) there.

Piers Morgan to leave GMB

I mean, literally the post above your own.

Did it occur to you that the ‘post above your own’ was posted whilst I was typing my ‘own’?

Piers Morgan to leave GMB

ITV may hold out and have Charlotte Hawkins or Ranvir Singh on an interim basis and even drop Susanna Reid once her contract runs out and start a fresh (again). Hawkins and Singh are already there on Piers’ days but present the full show from 6-9am. Reid is associated with Piers, his nodding sidekick.

Good Morning Britain

London Lite posted:
The comments about Charlotte's attire were out of order as well this morning. What does it have to do with presenting a tv programme which was suitable work attire?

Granada Reports

I noticed this evening the coffee desk is no longer angled and the studio isn’t as dimly lit. Looks a lot better on screen.

End of the road for UTV?

“Monday night at 8 o’clock”

No verbal reference to the channel name. Unusual to hear “o’clock”. Maybe it’s to compensate for the lack of “on UTV”

You wouldn’t say UTV twice in the same sentence, it would sound odd.

Of course that doesn’t fit this continual conspiracy theory


Indeed the generic announcement before weekend local bulletins are introduced along the lines of ‘...and now the ITV News from where you are’ as opposed to ‘...and now on ITV, the ITV News from where you are’ etc.
