Does anyone know who is presenting Breakfast this morning with Charlie?


Victoria Derbyshire of 5 live. She normally is on five live on weekdays between 10am and 12pm, and according to the BBC website, she will be on at 10am this morning too.

Kate Silverton is now back presenting the evening news - I believe for the first time since she's gotten married.

Just to mention, Alastair Yates has done the overnights for 6 of the past 7 nights! That's quite something!

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.


You can't say things like that without posting a screenshot!

Interesting! Which night did he not do and who did it?

It's interesting how quickly you can see who's doing what on twitter; Sian's doing tomorrow's Breakfast. Kate's doing tomorrows One, followed by bulletins on Thursday and Saturday. Lyse did Impact Asia and George Riley says he's become a relief sport presenter.

I think the 29th or so! Not too sure! But James Dagwell did that one. Interesting to see his virual entire range of suits - always keeping a good, stern tone and I'd like to see him do more.

Just to say, Sian & Bill from Breakfast managed to win the celebrity edition of 'Pointless' - yay! However, a rather awkward, but funny moment in The News At Five when Maryam Moshiri got to Jon Sopel when she decided to add that a leisure company was benefitting from recent sales and turned to Jon to say, "but not you hey Jon, you can just sit there, it's just for people who walk, y'know leisure and things." Laughing And for the first time ever, you could actually hear the laughs of the floor staff! Jon replied, "yeah well you're not looking at it in the context" and then she explained his accident as to which she ended, "I better get off now 'cos I feel really bad." Very funny!

Alastair Yates wasn't on the overnights in my region last night. We had "The Pugilist" instead, and she was in the World studio. Are you sure it wasn't 3rd Jan overnight you saw Alistair?

(Apologies if my time difference is creating confusion here. LOL.)

And Lucy Hockings is now back on BBC World. She received a nice welcome from Nik Gowing on The Hub: "Nice to have you back, Lucy". '"It's nice to be back in the fold, Nik."

I think 'cms43' was referring to 'last night's overnight was Alistair Yates', which it was the night of 3rd-4th.
