Luisa Baldini has presented on News 24 a couple of times. She was also one of the latter-day stand-ins for Moira Stuart on BBC Breakfast.

She is half-Italian. When the Pope died, she interviewed people in Rome who were visiting his body in Italian, and translated everything into English. I'm surprised she hasn't become the Rome Correspondent. Her skills make her very capable for the job.
Also, shouldn't all this discussion of Presenters really go in the Presenters & Rotas thread?

Don't think the BBC has a proper Rome Correspondent these days. I seem to remember speculation that once Christian Fraser left, the post would be discontinued. Instead the Beeb would just have an unsponsored stringer.

Duncan Kennedy is Rome Correspondent at the moment.

Plus veteran David Willey is still based there.

Last night (or this morning, or some time in the recent past during the night) there was a gap between the ticker and the straps for some reason. The clock and ticker (Not the "BBC News" part, however) disappeared momentarily, then it was fixed.
I notice the ticker on the news channel has started getting a bad bout of the Hippy Shakes again as one line finishes scrolling and another starts. It's either nervous or needs it's Temp files purging again!

Same problem on Breakfast this morning too, with a gap around the clock.
