Sophie Long has had a bit of a meteoric rise since the Politics Show; she's soon going to be presenting BBC Breakfast, so I assume putting her on the national update has given her some exposure. She's qualified and has worked hard to get where she is. She's got a pleasant delivery too.

Yorks & Lincs failed to opt out and in on time... Rolling Eyes


Who is presenting for Y&L as Ian seems to have disappeared lately.

Yep - she is good and hopefully will stay in London permanently! Does she still present the South West Politics Show on Sundays?

How do you know she's soon to be presenting Breakfast? She's done a couple of weekend editions already I think...

IIRC we tipped Sophie for bigger and better things on here a few years back when she presented the Midlands Today Breakfast bulletins... Razz

No, last time I looked, the presenter for that was Janine Jansen.

Actually it's Lucy Fisher (Sp?) and very occassionally Chris Rogers. Janine Jansen has replaced Sam Smith on Inside Out South West.
