Will Sian be able to stand in on Breakfast if the others aren't available? Or will they pull someone in from NWT?


She won't stand in - she's left the show for good. It would have been made clear if she was doing occasional cover from Salford.


Of course, she's sticking around for the Olympics.

She was marvellous this morning. Better than Susanna Reid.

That is not hard! Reid is awful - shouty, patronising and plonking...and the questions are always horrendously long-winded.

Does anyone have a video by any chance? Would have done myself if I'd remembered, it's also the last time we saw Bill Turnbull broadcasting from TVC today.

There was no mention of it at the end of the show.

He mentioned it on Twitter:

Saying goodbye to Television Centre this morning after 24 years. Sad day, feel very lucky to have worked here. Salford here we come...

And judging by next weeks schedule it appears that Bill and Susanna will be doing Mon-Weds and Charlie and Louise Thurs-Sun

So these new lower thirds/straps/astons and other HD graphics...

Will they be launched across the board, or Breakfast only?

I was under the impression that, stylistically, the graphics would look just the same - except in HD. For now, at least.

That was the impression I was under, using the same system as NWT (hence why the straps can animate on and off similarly to the nationals since the move to Salford).
