Not until February... pregnancy does take 9 months of course Wink

Good to see Sian on the six tonight - she strikes me as being a bit wasted on breakfast (she's been on it for so long now!) ideally she should get the one, Sophie the six and George.. err... moved! Laughing

Also anyone think its inevitable Kate will be back on Breakfast next year? Apart from anything if Louise is on mon-thurs who on earth would relief... sonia? Shocked

Sian was on the ten last night as well. Regarding Kate, if the file name this picture is anything to go by, then yes it is inevitable!

Shunt George off to World News, he has been on the Six for long enough, and has become stale.

What is that file from? It has 'masthead' in it, but is surely way too big for a website (physical width and height rather than file size). Looks kind of good though. I can't wait until they redo the Breakfast website - I've hated it for ages. I always thought it was a shame when they stopped properly updating it, instead just updating the 'Missed Something?' page. Fingers crossed...

And Kirsty McCabe and Noel Thompson have been added to the presenters page. Presumably he's now the first choice male stand-in.

What do you mean 'wasted' on Breakfast? It's the biggest AM show in the UK at the moment - I wouldn't really call that a wastage

Because in my view she should be on a national! I was simply commenting that so many Breakfast presenters have made the permanent move to a national, so its a shame to see that she hasn't.

George is most welcome over here! In fact, the channel suits him, and vice-versa. How about a swap? BBC World will take George Alagiah in exchange for Network accepting "our" Tim Willcox.

I don't think Sian is at all wasted on Breakfast. I think she's usually sober.

Breakfast, out of all the nationals has the most interviews, covers the widest range of topics and runs for the longest. I'm sure there are manty more reasons that I simply can't be bothered thinking off, too.
