Sky News: Presenters & Rotas

I also agree that it was great to see Martin getting to lead the coverage of the Moat story's conclusion. Also nice to see Anna Jones on Afternoon Live today, she is wasted on business news but there is not really any gaps in the schedule for her I suppose.


what about Saturday Live?

Did Jeff Randall Live have a new headline bed yesterday, heard it yesterday at the end of JRL, might just be hearing things though, it definitely sounded different from the .com, sky news and sport bed

In other news, Randall & Boulton Unleashed returns tomorrow.

SkyNews.com not making a return until the government is sorted out then?

Looks that way currently, although it could be a one-off tomorrow. I think we’ll get some SkyNews.com by the end of the week though.


Thanks for the info. I do wish we could see more of Martin just presenting the news. I enjoy the SkyNews.com and he is the master of the newswall but most of all he is a superb news presenter.


My EPG says that we are getting .com tonight and JRL, no unleashed

The Midlands didn't let the closing shot go out tonight. As soon as Huw had finished talking, we got about a second the closing music, and then Midlands Today crashed over the top of it.


It may be that the director in charge got his "Closing Words" with no info about the music and hence the "Crashing"


The 10 is being done by the same director all week I believe, it's possible that the operator in Birmingham simply didn't know this change had come in for this week and opted as usual after "..the news where you are...". It's easy to do!


Yup, I believe this guy is directing - http://twitter.com/chrisckmedia

General Election Thread

Has the election set been shown on Breakfast yet, I seem to recall Jeremy Vine saying yesterday on PoV that it would be unveiled during Monday's Breakfast?
