BBC News: Presenters & Rotas

Rachel Schofield doing the lunchtime bulletin - is this her first national bulletin?

I remember her doing the 3pm update a couple of years ago

Sean Fletcher was doing some non-sport reporting today - is that the first time?

No - I think he spent about 6 months away from sport over a year ago - he was a correspondent on 'Breakfast' for a short time as well covering non-sporting stories.

George again tonight at 18.20

I'm surprised we haven't seen Tim Willcox on the NC at all today. Shall we send him flowers or something?! Seriously though, maybe he doesn't do New Year or something, LOL

Nice to see the beautiful Karin Giannone back on our screens again !

he'll be on tomorrow I bet! He has to have one day off to keep that hair as it is!

Happy New Year! It seems as if the simulcast is "following 2011" and is 'getting rid' of the World viewers a.s.a.p. to focus on UK New Year. A jolly and festive approach to the news it seems!

Oh dear. I don't like to post these things, but Karin Giannone on World duty today is, ahem,......, well, just put it this way - she is giving us two options as to where we could hang our coats!

Dearie me.

Explain?

And the New Year's Day presenters are Rachel at lunchtime and Nicholas on evening.
