Don't think I've ever seen Karin presenting on location before. Should be good.


Neither have I. When did she last do an OB, her Anglia or Football Italia Days? I'm glad to see her get a more prominent role, but whenever the beeb need an italian speaker they usually send Luisa Baldini out so I suspect Karin only got the chance because Luisa must be unavailable.

Does anyone know where Carrie Gracie has got to? She hasn't presented on NC since September!

Been thinking this myself! Didn't she take about 2 months off at the start of the year too? Perhaps whatever she was doing then she's doing now.

I think it was about six weeks last time. Didn't she appear on Hardtalk last time? Has she been on there recently?

No. She hasn't been on HardTalk either. Maybe filming a docu in China?? Who knows!

A shortage in the Met Office?

Apparently Simon Mc did the weather at 8:58 before Laura Tobin was called in.

I sincerely hope somebody has a screen cap of this? Very Happy Very Happy

But probably he just read out the weather from the desk, whilst the maps were on the screen? Is it suggested that he actually stood up with a clicker in hand, and made a Michael Fish of himself??

Does Carol normally do the early NC weather before the morning shift takes over?
Carol was on location today so whether that had anything to do with it?

A non event in many ways if it wasn't for the fact it was Simon. I'm sure there was some comical remark attached to it. Very Happy

Bravo, Tanya Beckett. She's been presenting on BBC World for the last ten hours today. Since 5am London time. I guess Sara Coburn couldn't come in today.

Love Tanya though.

I'm sure Sara Coburn was on the NC this morning
