Apparently Steph McGovern of Five Live will be covering Simon on Breakfast for the next 2 weeks, though who is taking over business in the long term I don't know.


Well it won't be Sam Washington as she is moving to Sky News according to her Twitter. She has also said that auditions for the business breakfast presenter are still taking place.


I think they should bring back Declan!


Agreed. Strongly.

Sorry if it's been mentioned before, but is there any set date for the Breakfast move to Salford?

Looks like Jenny Hill's got engaged then.

Congrats, if that's the case.

Can't remember where exactly, but I read the other day that Tony Livesey will be a semi-regular weekend presenter of Breakfast when it moves.

Probably this article, or one with a similar source.

The Sun - "BBC to axe 2,000 to fill funding gap"

Worth noting, however, that we don't know from that what job he'll actually have. There was talk on this forum that Bill will only present around three days a week, so perhaps Charlie's sticking with Thursdays and Fridays, or maybe Mr Livesey is only providing relief cover at weekends? Apparently he's also joining Inside Out North West, in addition to his posts on North West Tonight and Radio Five Live. Busy man.
