Good to see Joanna Gosling doing the main weekend bulletins today. A very clear and competent newsreader


I agree, she's excellent. I presume she's the main Saturday BBC1 news presenter (having done the last three Saturdays), whilst Kate Silverton is on baby leave, with Louise Minchin or Simon McCoy doing the One.

I think Joanna should have a go at doing the One, she'd be quite good IMO

Think its only been the last two - Julia presented two weeks ago. But, yes, agreed she is good.

It would be nice if Joanna and Julia became the new Saturday presenters! I expect Joanna will but it will be nice to have Julia too!

Sally Eden on a late business shift on World. Unusual to see near on a thing other than TWT.

Yeah, she normally presents if the presenter for the six does do it.

Not so much, she regularly appears as relief on News 24.
