Not quite sure we can make the comparison there really. At least louise has the excuse of covering on the News at One, Breakfast, The One Show, Missing Live or whatever she's doing away from the News Channel, which means she has a purpose of not appearing on the afternoon slot. Ben just keeps on constantly doing 2-5 or 11-2 instead of "his" evening shift for what there appears to be no reason for whatsoever


Is part of the reason not to allow Matthew A time for Crimewatch?

It's a shame we don't see Sian Williams on the Six or Ten anymore - she hasn't been for over a year. Perhaps she'll be on the main bulletins after the Salford move more often..

Would that be the first time she's presented the bulletin since this "incident" ?

No - she presented a Friday edition of the ten a few weeks back, if I remember correctly, and has certainly presented the News at One on plenty of occasions since the 08 rebrand.

May not be by choice, could be the other presenters who cannot cover their own shifts Confused
