Seemed a bit daft and a waste of money on the News Channel today.

Jane Hill presented Oscar coverage from 8.30am to 10am, the Simon and Rachel where in from 10am to 11am with Mathew and Julia on from 11am.

Wouldn't it have made more sense to just get Mathew or Julia or both just to start an hour earlier??

It was only from 9.30am-10am so only half an hour

She was on the News Channel at 8.30 too. So maybe 8.30am to 9am then 9.30 to 10am, with Simon & Rachel 9am to 9.30am and 10am to 11am.

Still seems a waste of money having two presenters esp when one was freelance.

Indeed, at 1am - the News channel is going solo with Tim for the St Paul's Cathedral Eviction coverage.

Tim has just announced News Channel viewers have been joined by viewers from BBC World.

Was watching the stream online on world and we had the usual headlines with Babita & Rico then Babita gave a brief run down of the occupy story and then said "I will now pass over to my colleague on the BBC News channel to cover this story in more depth".

Words to that effect anyway, so world have been with it since around 01:02.

(Watching BBC News Channel in the UK now though)

Tim has just handed over to Babita at 02:00, exactly 12 hours since he started his first shift on the News Channel yesterday at 14:00.
