I agree Adam Shaw is working lunch, I'll miss him on it.

I wonder if he'll keep doing the Today programme Business? I suppose so long as the timings work right there's no reason he can't do both Today and Breakfast!

Agree about Nick Wood too, used to like him when he did the roaming reports, but he never looks comfortable in the studio.

I wish they had Paddy take over the week days as well!

Oh well

How long has Adam Shaw been presenting Working Lunch? For as long as I can remember he's been on the show, with "Shaw's Shares" appearing on the stock market board/screen.

How many regions managed to put out the right voiceover beforehand. Look East did.

Hmmm, Strange choice of stand in. Did George do WNT earlier?

Got to say, I think Matt is great! Much less patronising tone than George...is odd though...maybe hes doing a Michael Peschard, and spending some time over here

You're kidding right? Matt is very patronising, have you never seen WNA?

He was very different on the Six. For WNA, he is probably 'Americanising' his presentation style to suit Americans' tastes. Just tune into Fox News and you'll see what I mean Wink
