Bills on the six tonight I think.


Where's George? We has Jane Hill earlier in the week, George on for just a couple of days and Bill today (If Greg is correct)


It is Bill today. George hasnt had a break for a while actualy, or maybe because its Friday? Lots of presenting teams are different from the norm on Fridays.


George hasn't presented the Six on Fridays since he started presenting on BBC World earlier in the year. Also, good to see Bill on the Six again.

P.S. Changing topic, but where do the presenters of the News Headlines on BBC News Multiscreen come from. Are they there just to present the bulletins, or are they reporters or producers assigned to the bulletins each day?

There are two main presenters of the Headlines loop on the News Multi-screen in the mornings - they are Kasia and Juliet. In the afternoon and into the evening it is the duty 60seconds presenter on BBC Three who also presents the loop - most of the time with a different outfit on. The main two 60seconds presenters are James and Alex - although you may see me pop up every now and then Smile Kasia sometimes does 60seconds as well.

Best solution:

Ditch the simulcast. Go back to the original way of things.

Why? It always struck me as a waste to have two main news bulletins covering the same news from the same news department with the same tone simultaneously, and implicitly gives either the BBC1 or N24 viewer inferior coverage (and since the main correspondents always did the BBC1 news, do the maths...)

Funny how the ITV NC always used to get slated for simulcasting the ITV1 bulletins, but for the BBC it's alright. The BBC1 bulletins stand out like a dog's dick on News 24 and don't fit in whatsoever.

George didn't present World News Today on BBC World yesterday either.

So, is the 21:55 bulletin tonight the last sighting of Darren Jordon on a BBC One bulletin?

I also noticed a nice shot there, at night, of Big Ben. Has that been used before?

Yes, it should be. Unless he's on tomorrow. This is his last weekend.

Far from it. He presented the Ten O'clock News on Monday.
