Think it will be from this coming Monday, two weeks off during the Glasgow Fair usually.
It's Laura M who's coming up this evening on the STV News at Six. Who is she? Is she as legendary as MacKay?
Laura Miller, she's usually found doing the late bulletin these days during Scotland Tonight or the lunchtime bulletin.
Excellent Choice, New Hair Do and all!
And doing a great job!
Laura IMO is a rising star at STV and will prob end up like Orla Chennaoui, Nick Dixon, Nicol Nicolson and Mark White and head to London for likes of Sky, CNN or ITV.
STV News
John usually takes two weeks off around this time of year.
Anyone know when and who will be covering?
If STV management are reading no to Rona!

Stick Nina on London Tonight and Natasha on 1.30pm bulletin. Natasha leaves LT altogether, Nina covers for Natasha when Natasha is doing News at 10 so shes still on the nationals. Leave weekends as they are. Problem solved. There is space for them both and if Nina was ever going to get a prominent position she would have got one by now. Natasha appears quite a lot and has settled in nicely. When I first heard she was joining I thought it was a silly move but I now prefer her to Mary and Julie.
I was exactly the same, I thought it was going to be all razzle dazzle since she is classed as a 'Celebrity' but now I think she has settled into ITV News very well. My only gripe is, if she is this good on ITV News now, why wasn't she brought in ages ago?
I disagree guys! Nina is a prominent figure at ITV, if she wasn't they would not have kept her around when Katie Derham was still there. Plus like Mary, Mark and Al I see Nina as Itv News. Julie is getting there!
If Natasha is going to stay, she should get Nina's old job when Katie was there. Friday on LT and Saturday National with fill in as and when required.
ITV News: Rotas & Presenters
Unless you were to remove Alatsair from the LN or put London Tonight back to a double headed bulletin then really it would be hard to think of a suitable position for both.

Louise hasn't worked at STV for a year now, and Rona is a main presenter at the station, with Scotland Tonight. I do agree with you though, she is a bit rubbish - but getting better... slowly .
I know Louise left but was meaning she should do freelance work covering.

Why aren't STV using the likes of Rachel McTavish or Louise White as freelance cover?
Rona is pathetic IMO

Didn't he present updates during the previous ITN era?
Yes he did! He used to do updates, weekends and stand in on Lunchtime when Rob or Charlie wasn't available.
Five News from ITN
Simon Vigar on the lunchtime update today. He'd make a good presenter one day if he ever tires of reporting.

Doesn't make sense, far better presenters available and loosing Louise White for the likes of Rona is a bad move.
I thought things where getting better with the use of Rachel covering John, now we bearly see her! Now Gordon, he makes Jackie Bird look good!

Another cringe worthy West News at 6 tonight!Doesn't make sense, far better presenters available and loosing Louise White for the likes of Rona is a bad move.
