Was that former Thames TV announcer Tom Edwards during Hugh Pym's NHS cyber attack report on the Ten? He was referred to as "Tom" - no aston appeared.


Did look very much like him! Unmistakable gravelly voice.


Not looking quite as suave in a dressing gown and cannula in his hand. I hope he does get better from whatever he is in hospital for.

I just spotted this on the News channel, and recognised him too!

Also, isn't that person behind him smoking in front of a No Smoking sign? Rolling Eyes

Certainly is...he appeared on BBC news the day of Sir Terry Wogans memorial service too

Just crashed into world half way through a report. Would it really have been that difficult for Clive to have continued for a couple of minutes in order to opt cleanly?

I think someone mentioned on here a month or so ago that the main/big desk in Studio B was broken or stuck at full height and couldn't be lowered.

It was at coffee table height for tonight's Newsnight which it hasn't been for a while, so it looks like its been fixed.

I think Jay Wynne's earpiece has came loose as you could hear a woman talking over him as he delivered the weather on the News at One.

This is doing the rounds on social media. Bit awkward push away.

Did he pushed her away by cupping her breast?

No he was grabbing her side to push her away. To say he was cupping her side to fully push her away.
