Well done Funky Guy - you added a cracker of a category...

Sexiest: JOHN MACKAY on Scotland Today
>he is as smooth as 007 and I would be willing to see his lethal weapon as well phwoar!!!


I would desperately like to know how we got from talking about prestigious national awards to a local newsreader's genitals.


Scrooge lol - he is a regional newscaster btw

Another thing about John Mackay - he does have a sense of humour Razz


Bah humbug. The comment to which you replied was also humourous and sarcastic.


Just as well Scrooge as I would have to put you over my knee Wink

Worst Presenter: PETER SISSONS - Completely cringeworthy, it's embarrasing to watch N24 sometimes when he's on.

He's awful, but IMO he would be far better on, say, the Ten .

He has to be one of the most stuttery newsreaders around. He turns News 24 into a comedy with his constant errors here and there. I guess hes not really one for rolling news! Laughing

... or graceful retirement. It's quite sad to see him put out to pasture on News 24 - though I've never really rated him myself.

Perhaps it's time the BBC did a "Moira" on him.
