This was Spielberg's only interview, wasn't it? Its not like he was being shuttled around from site to site - so perhaps he would have gone to Salford.


Although with the films premier the night before going on late, would he have made the journey for the early morning slot? It is the type of interview that gains from being in the studio, not a dtl or pre rec in a hotel somewhere.
It was actually his only LIVE interview. It can be assumed that he did other recorded interviews for other broadcasters.

Daily Mirror article on Louise Minchin landing presenting role on BBC Breakfast.

It says that she'll present with Charlie later in the week after Susanna and Charlie, although the full details of the team are yet to be fully revealed, as we well know!

I did know Louise was freelance, but I didn't know Susanna was as well.

If this is to be believed, I'd much prefer Louise to take up the role with Bill. The pair always have good chemistry when they're on together (and I prefer her to Susanna).


This is true.

I can't tell if LEDMAN is an insider telling us that Louise will be with Bill or whether LEDMAN is just agreeing with me saying they have good chemistry together.

Carol was in Sandringham today to see the Queen, speaking about the weather and working at BBC weather centre.

A young lad got his bum out and stuck two fingers up on Breakfast this morning.

Not my cap, just the best I could find...

Mr. TV
Hi folks, I wonder if you could help me. Has anyone got a clip of Steph McGovern's Business Report today (Wed 25th Jan) just before 8am. I need it for a university project I'm doing. Would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Hello, Mr. TV. Could you please furnish us with more details on your university project? Are you taking Media Studies or Economics maybe? Was the item you requested only shown on the News Channel or was it on BBC One as well? Why couldn't you record it yourself? Didn't you know in advance that you would need it for your university project?

It was on at 7:50. There was some talk of the Gross Domestic Product figures. Steph McGovern was wearing a purple top. They spoke to a shop owner who has some shops selling wraps (the kind you eat). There was an interview with Andrew Sissons from Work Foundation. It wasn't very funny. I don't know why anyone would want a clip of it.

Blimey, is there really any need to be so harsh? Granted it could potentially be a wind up, but why is every university student request immediately treated with scepticism? Maybe this person actually does require the clip for a project and wouldn't it be more kind to actually help him/her rather than instantly start picking on them? I had to laugh at the suggestion the person should have known it would be useful in advance. How on Earth is that possible, short of working at the BBC? That's like me saying I must record tomorrow's One O'Clock News because it's going to feature a report on hippos. Nobody's got a clue!! Fair enough, the typical one post member who says they need clean music tracks for a project are most likely a wind-up. But this request is specific enough to be plausible.
