I hate the way as well where George does his quick turn when he stares at Natasha! It's meant to be about respect and stuff but its just destracting

) Why not give Moira a try on that!
Moira Stuart - Dropped?
It's hard really - I dont think Moira should be on those slots - but I think the headlines (which they are) should be read by Andrew/ Jon instead of a seperate newsreader - like on Breakfast! I would like to see Moira attempt a slot on News 24 (try it out), maybe the five o'clock. The problem with that is it was meant to be analyisis and in-depth but I can't tell the difference between that and Jon and Louise before (except an anchor who still feels like he's making it all up as he goes along to me!

Why is it that when the six has one presenter based somewhere in the UK (massive news events like 7/7 or when they're running special features like today's welsh elections coverage) that they only use one presenter? Considering Natasha will probably only do 5 minutes from Wales today, why only have one presenter. I think this demonstrates that they only need one presenter - so why pay someone else to help?

And why would the beeb allow for the new look BBC London then? Although it does make me think - why does some of the beebs regional news act like ITV (two presenters both on camera always, more amusing stories about crab fishing increasing) and some be a single, deadly serious presenter (like Riz or Asad on BBC London - shootings, stabbings, oh Peter Cockroft it'll be horrible weather wont it!)
Regional definitions
Please - the express lie! NEVER!
HO
Yeh - but the entire regions need new ones. And my suggestion is that BBC London won't bother as they had theirs updated not that long ago (compared to say SE Today or Midlands Today) and as they are now just using (from what I gather) the new BBC News beds - which suggests they're not bringing new ones in. Although I actually think who ever came up with the BBC London titles should be shot - they're so terrible! I much prefered the original ones!

They did mess it up in one of the reports last week covering the US shootings. Now I'll grant it that they didn't have long maybe in that case, but this report yesturday sounds terrible! Do they not bother watching them over again before airing them? I mean what if during the six they forgot to take out the bit when a reporter swears - it would cause massive complaints!

Out of interest, does Carrie still do weekends, and can't they move Kate off somewhere so that Carrie can have her slot - she's so much better!

Come on, if anyone saw Mishal on Breakfast today you should agree that they should BRING BACK MISHAL! and send Susanna off to a nursery - or even better Blue Peter! Patronising woman for a patronising program?

No option to do that, my firewall doesn't affect it because I've configured it to work and I updated it yesturday.

It depends how often the program checks the feed for new items. If there's an option, tell it to check at least every two minutes. If your version of the program isn't up to date, update it. And check the firewall is letting connections through to and from the program.

It's lovely!!!
