If 'You and Yours' of Radio 4 has moved to Salford already, I take it this means Julian Worricker won't be appearing on the News Channel as often now? He hasn't been on his regular Friday afternoon slot for the last 2/3 weeks. Tim has been on instead.

You and Yours is in Salford now. Julian was presenting the programme yesterday, but I think they have about 2 other presenters who alternate.

I was just wondering who actually decides on the rota for the presenters and how far in front are they arranged and can a presenter actually refuse to do a shift.

I'm sure someone posted a while back about Sarah Rainsford becoming Havana correspondent replacing Michael Voss. Turns out he has moved onto CCTV News

Quote:
Senior Latin America Correspondent, Michael Voss, after more than 20 years at the BBC, is one of the primary correspondents. Voss will work from his base in Havana, Cuba.

I did a week or two ago. Very interesting, but a bad decision IMO, especially going to CCTV News of all places.

Makes a nice change from Chris Eakin, yep. Please don't start the trend of using hashtags on things that aren't Twitter, before we know it it'll be all over the place just like Facebook!

On the subject of Capello - love how Fiona Bruce says "Capello" looking forward to 10 Razz

Her pronunciation was really toned down at the beginning of the Ten! Very Italian pronunciation on the Ten trailer at 9:00 before. Anyway, we digress... Very Happy

Adam Parsons doing the newspaper review with Mihir Bose - an odd little situation, because allegedly the reason Adam left the BBC was because he was snubbed for Sports Editor job, which Mihir took. Any bitter feelings I wonder Wink
