Must you post caps of every single thing? We know he was a relief presenter on the News Channel, we know that Tim Willcox is on today and we know that Roger was on Breakfast today like he often is at the weekend.

Wow! I don't think that comment was required, Drew.

Harry was illustrating that Roger had appeared on the NC - something I wasn't aware of until today, and was in response to my comment.

I'm not sure why you would object to a picture being included in a comment about TV presenters/presentation: it seems rather odd to unnecessary restrict posts to only text for your benefit.


Indeed. Whilst I think the effort outweighs the benefit, if Harry is willing to upload photos, what's the problem? Makes the forum a bit more colourful if anything!!

If that's other people's opinion then I do apologise - just seems a little excessive in my opinion to post lots caps of totally everyday stuff is all. If you've seen a lot of my posts, you'll know I'm always capping and videoing odd bits and bobs so I'm certainly not against it if it's something interesting!

Just a tip by the way Harry when posting images on here - save your images in JPEG format, the files are smaller and the colour/quality is better.

I like caps. Keep it up Smile

I watched Breakfast this morning, and Roger seemed to do quite well. I've also watched him on NWT, and he has quite a good presentational style.

This was my first time seeing him on Breakfast and I thought he did well too. After reading about him on here I was expecting a car crash.


I wonder whether Ranvir Singh would've been offered the weekend Breakfast gig, if she hadn't jumped ship to Daybreak?

Maybe in time, but not in the short to medium term.

To be fair he doesn't usually do Saturday breakfast, only Sunday breakfast which is must more of a hidden graveyard slot.

Roger Johnson returns to breakfast, alongside the Minch


I really like the poses too, especially the Minch's facial expression! She looks like she's doing a Victoria Beckham impression, or she's just looking at Victoria Beckham!

PS I LOVE caps!

On top of the above problems, the set and background, the fact it's like a colourful shoebox?

I say, yeah, the studio is a lot smaller than the one from London, and also sounds scabby with it having to share with NWT aswell!

SCABBY? ...there is nothing wrong with two programmes sharing the same studio. What will you say when they move to BH and GMT, Impact, The Hub, World News Today, Newsnight, The Andrew Marr Show and The Sunday Politics start sharing... will you call that Scabby as well? ...what a stupid thing to say.

We all know its smaller, and whilst that presents its own logistical difficulties I think they are doing an excellent job with what they have. Lets face it, they arent going back to London, there is no room for them and they arent likely to get a new Studio in Salford for at least three or four years.

As for the graphics, you would think they would change them to use a Dog similar to those used by BBC World News programmes such as GMT/Impact etc. So this issue with the Clocks overlapping would not take place. The Breakfast logo would have a "BBC NEWS | clock" underneath it.
