Channel TV has a voiceover team (and the lady who did the announcments' is still at channel tv but works at another dept') but at the news its paul seed who does a pre-recorded announcment.
so the answer is Yes and No
If i was them i would just get real announcers.

I keep missing the start of Island at War on Sundays. Before the programme, is there a Channel TV announcer, or the usual ITV1 announcer?
Also, what is the local reaction of the drama? I'm sure there are still people still living who can remember the Nazi occupation, do they feel the programme should have been shown?
I'm sure there was another drama from the early 70's about the occupation of the Channel Islands, the Dame of Sark (?), produced by Anglia? Memories of the programme, anyone? I think the main actress was a real Dame, someone like Dame Edith Evans.

Black music? who said r 'n' b was for black people?
BBC1 Appreciation falls to an all time low.

I am going to agree with Phil on this one.
BBC Radio 1 seems to play nothing but black music anyway, and then what do they do, they set up BBC 1Xtra, dedicated to black music. We also have BBC Asian Network. I know it sounds stupid, but it does seem as if the white people who enjoy NORMAL music, seem to be left in the dark by the BBC.

the studio is VERY small!! having been in it myself when taking the girlfriend her dinner in the evening! got a guided tour of it!
the room cant be any bigger than 7ff x 8ft!! very small room! amazing how much bigger it looks on the actual screen tho
I guess its the magic of television.

did anyone see lisa present Puffin's Pla(i)ce this weekend???
..i thought she was really good..as a father of 2 girls... and they liked her..given time i think she would be a good replacement for kevin...i still think he is going to move on somewhere....i also think their shows together are fun if sometimes a little crazy..shame they dont have a bigger studio it looks really cramped..
Oscar still has a chipped bill though...and i want harry to have some clothes...sounds odd i know!!!
Also kevin was at a huge pop concert in guernsey and my best friends family went over and said that he got a great response..they did a comp for a winner to go back stage with kevin to interview the stars and meet them and that they are planning a special programme for saturdays show!!.....doing a good service to all the islands...not bad for a local kids birthday show!!...

Sorry, there is no frequency number for the bb live feed, you can only watch it on e4 via the red button or when bb live comes on.

I disagree with you the current look of ITV is such a mess i can't see what the fuss is about those celeb idents Jim Hynter was hardly being original with that look it was Channel 5 all over again .I loved all the regional idendities i grew up with them and i remember developing an interest in tv idents such as Westward,Southern, Thames and ATV to name but a few i just found it all so interesting when i was at school .
ITV should be forced back to it's roots and Charles Greedy Allen needs to be booted out for good .
Errrrr... you can't force a chanel back to its roots and boot out the management because you grew up with ATV. Think like that, and we're back to black and white.
I'm intrigued by your logic... you say the celebrities are a mess, yet you want to revert to a multitude of differing identities dependent on where you are in the country?
It doesn't work like that. To compete, you need a strong and instantly recognisable identity. It's painful to get rid of the lovely localness, but if (unoriginal) celebrity idents work, that's what you need. And despite what you think, it HAS worked. The regional stuff is still there, but the average person stopped crying over the local idents years ago.
I agree with you DAS, I think the channel needs to move on and develop something new for regional identites. And i wished the rumour was true about Greg Dyke being the CEO of ITV

I would like to know if anyone likes the way ITV1 is now on screen. I prefer the national image, with one concise, coherent look. I think the presentation is far better than when it was regional, and I was glad to see the back of some of these ugly logos? Anyone with me? Even though I lived in the Central Region, I couldnt stand the cake logo.
