Get a grip of yerself.

The fact that its Tim? Don't see the problem myself.

Well Sangita Myska's joined him now, maybe Louise just had to go because she was starting to feel ill or something.

Anyone else bored of the Anti-Tim comments on here.

He's a polished professional newsreader, delivers with authority, pairs up well with every other member of News24's team, also good on his own, demonstrates his depth of knowledge and journalistic ability on every subject from the serious to the whimisical, and has a sense of humour and personality which makes him quite watchable for a few hours at a time.

He is a strength of News24's team.

The roll of the eyes was in error...so maybe you should just calm down a tad!! As it goes, I'm not a fan of Tim's - but just clicked on the wrong emoticon alright!

I can understand the comments in a way because having him on an awful lot is irrritating sometimes, but what you say is true - he's not actually a bad newsreader, and perhaps he just works so many hours because he needs the money rather than being a 'goody goody' as some people seem to think.

Personally speaking, I'm just glad Aligiah and Kaplinsky aren't on News 24.

That would encrapify the dwindling reputation on BBC News even more.

So what emotion does the absence of Louise leaving Tim on his own provoke?

Confused

Surprised

Exclamation

Why should I calm down if it was YOUR error? That is if I believe you, and I don't.

Your sneery snide comments do nothing for this forum. They drive people away and I am sick of reading such nonsense.
