And Matthew only turned up at 12.30, Simon Mccoy was on before him.

Well that is interesting. I wonder why? LOUISE MINCHIN doing today's 1.00 News, in place of the regular anchor Sophie Raworth.


Poor Sophie doesn't deserve capitals for her name... Laughing

I think this is a really stupid move for TV journalism. I don't know why we need these big moments - 100 days? Wow, it's the first three figure number. Understandabely for Alan Johnston because he's a journalist his self.

Madeline is one of many missing children who has been potentially kidnapped - I really feel for their family but it's not helping with this constant bombardment of small updates and such which actually mean, 'Madeline has not been found.' The family say they want to keep it in the media spotlight to remind the public but I don't think we're going to forgot that face for a long time to come.

It is a horrible & upsetting story though.

Now I don't know if this is just me not seeing alot of the TOTHs today but the ones I have seen (3pm, 5pm, 6pm and midnight) there have been no countdowns.

Has this been the case throughout the day?

There was no countdown at 9pm - it was straight from the weather back to the studio.

It was a similar story yesterday with a few news conferences being taken live at the top of the hour.

I saw the 5pm TOTH and after the post-weather trails we got about 10 seconds of the ribbons/globe with the headline bed then into Emily with the headlines.

Normal TOTH apart from the countdown was replaced.

Pretty much yes. I had a dream last night about a new countdown as well. I might be psychic, I might not, we'll see Wink

Personnel monitors might like to know that Rebecca Lowe ex N24 Sport is co-presenting her first Blue Sq Premier (Conference) football match from Torquay on Setanta 1 now..

Incidentally, does anyone know what building or studio the new "Central London" backdrop featuring Canary Wharf on the LHS and Tower Bridge on the RHS comes from?

I suspect it's not from a BBC Building and just used for set decoration.
