So have 2 certain people been spotted on screen since the news broke last week?


I've seen Tim on World, maybe he'll work more there now.

The only day I've seen Tim on the News Channel this week is Friday when he did the 11am and 7pm shifts.

Sophie Long has been in her normal afternoon shift all week.

Maitlis and Sopel ideal presentation team for this afternoon's breaking news.

Alas, no access to BBC News channel for me, but I hope Maitlis Sopel are handling the news better than someone I'm currently listening to on Sky News, who is speculating on where and when she may have conceived. WTF???????

And he is a Sky Correspondent too! Shouldve known better.

Have I just crept this thread?

Nicholas Witchell has just been introduced as 'Royal Editor'...is that a mistake or new title?

Introduced as 'Royal Correspondent' on the Ten so possibly a mistake, Chris.

Interesting as well to see Mishal Husain doing this bulletin even though Huw still did the Five earlier!

It's actually happened a couple of times this year. Mishal has done it at least once if not twice when Huw has done the five. George has also done the 6 and then done the 10 when Huw has been doing the 5.

A "new" presenter for Focus on Africa today: Adnan Nawaz.

And.......he did the sport as well, in the same programme!

Sian did the Six, you'd think she'd stay for the Ten as well. Kate did the One yesterday.

Maybe a lot of rehearsals are taking place at NBH?

Well she wouldn't stay for the 10 if the regular presenter is there...Huw was presenting last night.
