You can't. The only time you can watch the channel live on your computer is via the BBC News website during major events. For example, recently, the radiation story or the light aircraft crashing into a block of flats in New York etc.

I used to like Chris Eakin. Gets on my tits now though. Really hate the 10.30-11 bit now.

Simon McCoy - now there's someone who would suit the slot far better.

Is it because Simon McCoy just has that 'late night' look about him?

He is of course a very competent broadcaster

I just think he'd be better at having the 'relationship' with the viewer that a solo presenter has to have. When Eakin is with a co-presenter, he's good, but on his own he just bumbles (you must admin he does) along to himself, with the rest of us waiting for him to finish!

McCoy would have an ongoing joke with the viewer - I can imagine it now - and would have better banter with the sport, business, paper review and weather people.

Manisha Tank on the news, Tanya Beckett doing the business, nice to finally see something out of the ordinary on N24 this morning!
