BBC News 24

Talking of random presenters...

Has Liz Pike and Rachel Schofield left?...haven't seen either of them on for a while...

Bit unrelated but will Tazeen Hammed (BBC 3 News) return? She did a couple of shifts on Breakfast Briefing last year.

Anyone know why Panorama is on and not WBR at 00:30 tonight?

The EPG has Panorama, but the BBC Website has WBR, and so do the TV Listings on Digiguide.

Tech problems or ??? Maybe the BBC realised that the awkward sat delays and poor pics from New York were too much to bare!

I just think it's a shame that Emily is no longer a permanent fixture on News 24. She was very good.

Was it anything to do with American markets being closed yesterday for I think a federal holiday?

Does Martine Croxall still present these days..?

Yeah I usually see her on the overnight shift.

Not for me to be involved in presenter talk, but I usually catch the headlines at 1am before bed.

"[B][B][C]WORLD" DOG on N24 right now.

Which one? Lyse? Nisha? Maryam? Lucy?



(Only joking - couldn't resist it and no offence intended. As everyone knows, I love the team at World.........)

Last week was a good week for News 24 (along with More4) in terms of ratings as for the second week running it was one of the top 10 muti-channel in terms of shares.

IIRC this has never happened before during a non-major news week.

Bummer for BBC News 24, as Sky News wins RTS News channel of the year.

They still have the
Britains Most Watched News Channel to fall back on!

Maybe that's what's needed at Sky, some motivation. Admittedly they might get complacent, but nevertheless, it must boost morale at the News Centre.
