I think if Fiona Bruce moved to the 1 [which I doubt] either Mishal Hussein, Jane Hill or Dermot Murnagham (sorry about spelling Confused ) would be a good replacement. Who do we really think will cover on the one though? It's obviously going to be Sian on the six if they keep two presenters, and Kate would obviously take over from her on Breakfast, but I feel noone's come up with a good replacement on the one...

MISHAL!!! Laughing Laughing Laughing

Well seeing as she presents the bulletin every Friday and every time Sophie is off I'm pretty sure we can say it'll be Louise...

so long as Sian gets the six i'll be happy, she does a good job and she was sidelined for Natasha a couple of years ago so i think she's earned her place and she's got a little baby at home so it must be really hard doing those early shifts. If Sian weren't to get it i'd vote Mishal.

worst presenter for me is susanna reid and sophie's baby voice goes through me too.

I'd rather Sian covered for Sophie on the 1, and Jane got the 6.

Well next week Sian is doing the six on all five days, while Kate's doing Breakfast on Monday and Louise Minchin Tue-Thu.

I'd prefer Sian to stay on Breakfast as the programme has improved vastly since she has been top female. I wouldn't mind Kate Silverton on the Six and Jane to stay on News 24.

And Fiona doing the ten all next week which is rare for one presenter doing the ten all week even for Huw.

Well if the other thread is true there won't be a One so that settles that problem! Just send Sophie to the Six with Matthew and Jane doing 'the One' from N8 and it'll all be sorted!

What a stupid comment:

1) If you actually click on the link in that thread which goes to this information provided on "Times Online", you'll read that many BBC people have said the idea of axing the one is ludicrous and will not happen.

2) Sophie has young children so is on the 1.

3) Oh, there isn't a three, but I'm still annoyed at your stupid comment.

I wouldn't take what the schedules are now as a permenant fixture.

Until we see a press release, Sian is just a cover for the 6.

My personal opinion would be a partial relaunch in Jan 08 (when Sophie leaves) to be:-


Breakfast: Bill and Sian (Suzie & charlie)

1: Fiona (Louise)

6: Dermot (Ben)

10: Huw (Emily)

I just can't see Emily on the Ten, mainly due to the fact that she is a Newsnight relief anchor....
