Well, since no one is actually going to give the game away, and the BBC Newsroom told me to F-Off when I called up to ask, I guess we will just have to wait and see who turns up on Breakfast in a few weeks time. Unless Nicky wants to out me (us) out of our misery?


I'd complain if they were that rude to me. Bunch of halfwits on that show.Mad

Another person who I thought of was Elaine Parke , she was another Five presenter who was very good on Five News when ITN made it.

You rang up a busy newsroom, where people are literally busting their gut to fill 3 hours of live tv, to ask who the new presenter is?

Noone would have ever, in a million years, told you to fuuck off.

Stop being childish, and just wait until whoever, or whatever appear on screen.

"Literally" busting a gut. Must be rather messy.

Couldn't you have rang the BBC Press Office (if you felt you simply HAD to ring) instead of the newsroom?!?! As someone said, it's going to be very busy, I don't think people are going to have time to chat to you about the new face on Breakfast.

And when he turns up he will shout "Nice To See You To See You" and Murnaghan, Williams, Moira any any crew in the studio will shout NICE, now that would be a turn up for the books.

Arse tanned? I'd say that was a mild stroking personally. I don't see what the major problem is really and James has done nothing what so ever wrong - We'll be putting the sharp instruments down now, eh Dog!

I also find the premise that no BBC employee would tell someone to f uck off an interesting one, numerous times I've heard certain members' utter the four letters...

Now, this has manged to turn into some giant beast of a mystery, looking at Nicky with my parent eyes, and I think it's something which really shoudn't have to, our even in TVF style, evoke such a strong reaction.

I've often thought when journalists are on strike, they should draft in Light Entertainment stars to do the news.

Incidentally, I bet no-one else remembers the occasion Cilla Black reported for ITN. Wink
