Also, with Joanna presenting from Westminster tonight and Ben with the Tories, what will happen at 9:30pm? Will a World News presenter (or perhaps the 10:30 - 00:30 presenter) do that half hour from N8, or will someone do the brief World News update and then back to Westminster? I'm guessing the same crew and equipment will be used for the Ten as the NC?

Edit: Unless the Ten came from N6 or Downing Street, presumably with the Six O'CLock News' crew and equipment?


N6 isn't practical unless Newsnight is elsewhere. The BBC News at Ten now runs till 2235, followed by regional news and then weather. Presumably this applies until the election.


Why wouldn't Newsnight be in TC7?

Anyway, just noticed the BBC is running 'The Campaign Show' from Milbank with Jon from 9-10 anyway!


Oh whoops. Sorry my mistake. Muddled up my studios.

We can also add George Alagiah to the people presenting out of the studio - finally we get other news coverage to with Sophie on the Six.


I'm guessing Huw will be in the studio for the ten - if not I'd guess George will be in the studio and Huw at Westminster?


think that's what will happen - george (or maybe fiona) inside and huw at westminster...long day for Huw though! Totally agree with comments regarding sophie long - hopefully after this she will be used more!


And don't forget George was live at Westminster for GMT earlier today, which will mean he'll have done a very long day.


Hmmm sophie tonight at 10.

Interesting - surely appearing in all three bulletins would be the same as doing GMT, the Six and the Ten? I guess GMT has more presenting in it than Sophie did on the One or Six though.

Fiona Armstrong is back today. I am sure we'll be seeing much more of her and Julia over the coming month!

Hopefully Julia will be back on Breakfast after last Friday and Saturday, Fiona should also get a chance to present something with a bit more high profile too!

Great interview on her return to National News with Fiona here from The Daily Record... very honest, and appreciative.

First time I can recall Gavin presenting anything other than the 5'O'clock news for many years.

Gavin looked a little uncomfortable at the start and Emily seemed to carry all of the content and dealt with the glitches whereas Gavin just sat looking at the camera until the second news item.
