An Australian lady called Daniela Ritorto on Newsday tonight/today - while a quick search on Google shows she's a freelance presenter who's appeared on BBC World News before, is this her first time appearing on a UK news service?

I've heard her do quite a few reports, but I've never seen her present.

She's presented on the overnight bulletins a few times before.

From what I see as a BBC WN viewer, Adnan Nawaz is the only sports presenter who had moved to news division... what happened to his other Sport Today colleagues?

Yep, Sian tweeted it, saying it's whizzy.

Martine Croxall has also tweeted to say she will be changing shifts with the move to NBH, though not where she is heading, sounds like a promotion however as she's said 'my own slot with predictable hours'.

Maybe after the Ten O'Clock News. If Chris Eakin's not going to be in the studio much, as we've been told, Martine has been in that slot on and off for years.

That's not who I heard was going to be in that slot, but things change. My money's on Martine for weekends, myself.

Curious that Martine mentions her new slot is "from end of March - can't say too much but it's part of our move to shiny New BH". I wonder if this means the date's changed?

She's also said today that the first day is 18th March so I wouldn't read too much into that.

I thought it was confirmed from an insider that weekends aren't changing (neither will Simon/Carrie on weekdays).

Presenters have been popping up all over the place (as expected) , I've never seen Robert Hall present on the news channel before. What other reporters have presented on the news channel?

I've remembered a couple more today - Jon Andrew and Andrew Simmons both had spells relief presenting on News 24 while they were BBC reporters.
