30 years since the start of Operation Desert Storm

robertclark125 posted:
One summer, the BBC had "Good morning Summer", hosted by Bill Hanrahan and someone else. That's how good it was, I can't remember the other persons name! But, what happened was, it was supposed to be a summer version of Good Morning, and with a different theme tune. It too was a complete load of crap! I tried to watch one edition, and after 5 minutes, couldn't.


Will Hanrahan. Alongside Sarah Greene and, occasionally, Jill Dando?

CNN International & Domestic

Don Lemon in his pyjamas? What would the UK think if Huw Edwards, Simon McCoy or Mary Nightingale appeared on social media in their bed attire to tease a big announcement?

Ironically - IMO - that clip just sums up CNN these days. World News Leader?

Give me CNNI London or Abu Dhabi any day over this trash.

Charlene White takes over as the anchor of Loose Women

Andrea McLean’s replacement is to be revealed on today’s show. They’re trailing it as a ‘big reveal’.

I hope it’s Josie Gibson.

Charlene White takes over as the anchor of Loose Women

According to Ruth Langsford, the programme achieved 2 million viewers for the 24th December special edition, which aired in the UK at 10am.

That’s not bad going at all. Two million people tuning-in to see Janet Street-Porter cooking brussel sprouts.

Armed Insurrection at US Capitol Building

Bringing this back to television related coverage somewhat, I watch the ITN report (as mentioned above) and found it excellent. I watched the same report played out now on CNN and the sound quality was much better. If I were to be slightly critical of the original ITN play out, it would be to say that Robert Moore’s overlaid vocal was drowned-out frequently by the noise of the commotion around him (not his location vocal).

Yet the CNN version just now was perfect. How come?

Armed Insurrection at US Capitol Building

Just watched the ITV News report now (Robert Moore inside the Capitol Building). Incredible scenes. And an excellent piece of coverage from ITN.

For me the best part of New Year's is getting to see my name on the TV Forum credits!


If only some talented soul could set it to music. Hmmm. And what music could it be? I vote for Dallas.

Happy New Year everyone. Stay safe. Take care.
