What is going on at the News Channel today? Earlier, Andrew Lindsay called Carrie Gracie 'Cassie' and then later Adam Parsons called her 'Martine'. How can you not know the name for this newsreading legend??

To be fair, she has been away for a long time so they may be getting confused. (Though Adam must have presented the news with her before!) Maybe it's the short and brown hair that's confusing them!

Cock-up, Joanna Gosling! First forgot to put on her microphone, 10s later, next puts microphone on, another 10s, micorphone falls down top, camera catches her with hand down her top reaching for her microphone. Not like it happens everyday!

I can't escape him, James. At least you only get him on World. Having access to both, I see him on both World and the News Channel!

Just to save any rota speculation... I think Lyse is probably going to be doing Impact - just seen her walk behind Tim during a wideshot, going in the direction of the gallery.
