BBC Midlands Today

Couldn't find it on the E&S website as it doesn't have a search facility, so here it is from the equally awful site of sister-paper Shropshire Star:

Something that deserves a mention in the thread title or subtitle.

Her last edition will be Tuesday

So no opinions on Russell Joslin, bearing in mind the occasional story has popped up in the past re the BBC management?

(Wonder who the former female colleague refered to is?)

I'd say it would be disrespectful at this stage and any opinions given would only be given by those who are uninformed.

I hope they let her do the 1830 Maybe a montage and a proper Midlands goodbye to *the* Midlands Breakfast queen

Hope she doesn't ''do an Alan Towers''!

Hmmm I hope she does, it'd be cracking to watch! [I hope you mean run down management btw!]

Well if you keep up with happenings at BBC Brum via the local press, it would be understandable.

How about one final appearance from Tom Coyne then?

Wonder if Nick will be back next week?

Last time he had this long off, he had his cancer scare.

Maybe family related?

Wrong Nick Owen...
He's on holiday, could be with his daughter...

Is it the Kay in your signature who's leaving? The former Yay for Kay, Kay? If so, what are you gonna do for a signature now? This is news of the utmost devastating proportions.

Sadly it is. A sad day for television indeed.
