Saw Komla presenting this morning (afternoon my time). I think he's become very good and has his own distinctive style. Perhaps a good choice for the JC slot. Not sure about Naga - haven't seen her doing it yet. All I did note was that Komla and Sally Eden did a very clean exit from the bulletin, with extended music-play, as opposed to the scrambled eggs exit we often see from Martine Dennis.
Adnan Nawaz has presented the weekend news slot on World for ages now. He is very good at it. Wonder who will take his place as sports presenter on BBC World News?

Noticed that Jon Sopel has been on the 5 news hour the last couple of days, but not on the 2-5 slot.

They've got to keep Tim Willcox busy covering for others one way or another!
Was he (Tim) on yesterday? If so, that means he's done 10 solid days in a row on the News Channel since last Sunday.

Seems from the Updating News service on the BBC News website that Correspondents are moving into Eastern Libya tonight, Jon Leyne reporting from Libyan territory now.

It seems to be the pattern at the moment, however, emily did a tuesday and wednesday a couple of weeks back and Sue has done the odd Friday in place of Louise.
Yes, Tim and Sophie did the 2-5 yesterday.
Also, am I right in saying that Emily does Mon, Sophie Long does Tue+Wed and Louise Minchin does Thu+Fri? That's the way it seems atm.

Naga Munchetty in Dabid Eades' slot on World at the moment. Presenting from then pod area. I note she still has that little bubble speaker with her on the desk at the pod.
