Yes, and I also remember her presenting the overnight shift before she made the move to weekday mornings with Ben Geoghegan (and later Philip Hayton). She used to share it with Clarence Mitchell and Rageh Omaar.
And has anyone seen Clarence Mitchell recently? He has been in Portugal with the McCann family working for the Foreign Office - hes been interviewed a few times
Despite initially not liking Emily, I really have grown to like her style...but she is everywhere at the moment! Jane always sutied the One...shame she isn't on it as much any more.
I for one am in favour of the scrapping of the 1, 6 and 10, and just getting BBC One to show half an hour of News 24 output at those times. For the difference it makes having the separate programmes, it's not worth the money. If they're going to make cuts, I'd rather it be that than cuts to reporters and bureaux. The 1 and 6 are so dire anything would be an improvement!

I fear we will get more and more London based reports on world affairs using wire feeds. At least this means the BBC will still have the money to send half its reporters to Portugal should a little girl go missing.
The problem is they have so many reporters, reporting on the same thing for different outlets, so on one story they have people from world,n24,National,Radio News,FiveLive, Online, Regional (if in UK).
Why cant they share journalists. I understand one journalist cant do all, but surely they dont need 5 or 6. Three would do at the most, surely?
I don't understand this. The BBC aren't getting any less money than before, so why must they shed all these jobs? Surely if the BBC as a whole needs to save money, there are better places for it to be done than in the news department? I for one don't value Jonathan bleeding Ross higher than the news output - he adds little value to the corporation, yet they are prepared to pay whatever he demands.
This business of simulcasting News 24 output for the national bulletins - does that mean Radio 4's news will be a simulcast of Five Live? I don't see how that would be any different a concept.
