You're aware she's read the news before? I doubt she needs "tips" - Sky News, BBC London and Breakfast, plus Newsnight are more than enough to not require "tips".

According to this, she's been having coaching on commentating on live events.

Maybe, but it sounds like she read it in order not to wake anyone up - too quite. So yes, she needs to be told to wake up a bit, speak more loudly and give it some energy. If she's doing that now, as reported, then great.

And she's preggers as well, so they'll need someone to stand in for her. For God's sake what a pain in the arse - you've just recruited a team of people and one goes on leave. I'd be jumping mad if I was her boss.

I'm sure every broadcaster at whatever level receives feedback, coaching, advice - and tips - from their superiors. It's what keeps them on their toes and prevents complacency setting in.

sorry if this has been already mentioned but does anyone know if news24 will get a new look because it looks odd now.

Well when the current BBC News boss started, one of the things he promised was standardised Astons across all BBC News output. It would seem very odd therefore to launch a new style of Aston on the 1, 6 and 10, and not on News 24.

Having said that, why would they have bothered fannying around with the News 24 Astons a couple of months ago? So it's anyone's guess really.

My hunch would be that News 24 at some point will get some new titles to match the new 'glassier' look on BBC One, and maybe some tweaked Astons to match as well.

How about this? Could keep the red for breaking news...

EDIT: Now I've come back and looked at this again, I really think it looks far better with the TOG centred like that rather than extending to the right. The whole thing looks more balanced and because you can see picture on the right (well you would be able to with widescreen) the TOG isn't as dominating.
