Is it just me or is Tash looking a bit red and on edge reading the 10 tonight - I hope she is okay Sad


She even referred to a 'jurlanist' on todays six.

Now she can't even pronounce what she is 'supposed' to be.


Wow - this must be the first Tasha rant in....3 hours!


I think the Nick and Tash partnership works well.

Perhaps you would like to come up with a more meaningful post.

You may not agree with what I say, but I have the right to say it. You, of course have the right to make a counter argument, but please do not criticise me for making my opinions known.

I think the point that he was making - and it was a good point - was that EVERYONE gets the idea that some on here do not like Natasha Kaplinsky. It's a point that's been exhaustively made, in hundreds of posts, and one which does not need to be continuously recycled.

Some people don't like Natasha Kaplinsky.

FOR ****'S SAKE, WE GET IT.

Is it really too much to ask for people to stop filling the forum with yet more "Natasha Kaplinsky sucks because..." posts? Is it really such a stretch for some people to grasp that most of us have no interest in hearing every infinitessimal slip-up that is made by her, or by anyone else for that matter?

Seriously, if people are that stimulated by chronicling her failures and errors, and pointing out all that is wrong with her, maybe those people should start some kind of minute-by-minute blog for precisely that purpose, so that the rest of us don't have to wade through the seemingly endless mire of posts dedicated to that very topic.

I very much hope that that's a meaningful enough post for you. And before you decide to point the finger at me, I'm not criticising you for making your opinions known - I'm merely pointing out that your opinion on this matter is as boring as it is well-documented, having already been stated by dozens of others on a daily basis.

I love how Rory Cellan-Jones includes his Apple Mac in every report of his Laughing


It's great isn't it. Well if the Beeb can't have Mac's in the studio he might as well have his own in the field.


The new iMacs would look good in TC7.


Wouldn't they just! Very Happy

Did anyone else see Evan Davis' fab report on inflation figures and interest rates last night on the 10?

It was studio-based infront of the screens, and basically involved him explaining a graph of predicted levels of inflation. He made what could have been a very dull piece very interesting, and at one point even got a plastic school ruler out of his jacket to help explain further.

He *so* should have been made Peter Snow's replacement on Elections instead of the awful Jeremy Vine.

Jeremy Vine's voice is interesting to me for the intro of Panorama and the radio show but I think 7 hours in a studio explaining politics isn't his cup of tea.

Anne Mc has had a change of opinion then - I agree the partership works well.

George Alagiah is on holiday for the majority of August I believe but I am sure he's coming back to do news presenting on the Six. He comes across as serious when reading, personally for that news programme he should be lighter / more chatty / cheery. I think his current style works for the Ten.

And we're always going to know about some strange TV geeks not liking the attractive Natasha Kaplinsky. She's done alot of good for the Six, especially ratings. She misreads things sometimes but it's alright, she is speaking to 6/8 million people.

AnnE MaC FAN (I am Chris or Christine btw and not Anne MacKenzie!!)has indeed had a change of opinion.

I always admit to my changes of opinion and am not stubborn enough to deny this. Tash is getting there and I think that Nick and her are a good combination.

However, I do prefer Fiona, Sophie and Sian more than Tash. It is also funny when you like a presenter and then meet them and find them a 'let down'.
