Does Emily Maitlis still work for the NC? Haven't seen her on it since before she was acting political editor on Newsnight.

I think since acting political editor she's temporarily stopped her Monday shift with Matthew.

Her last appearance was on the news channel doing the Five on 17th December. Her last appearance on the 2-5 shift was 16th December.

Karin Giannone on BBC World's "Global" today. David Eades did it yesterday. I have to say, I far prefer Karin and David on the programme than Jon Sopel.

I understood Jon Sopel had left the programme so expect a variety until Matthew Amroliwala takes over in September, So far this week Ros Atkins and Rajesh Mirchandani have also presented Global.

Tim should have done a couple, but he's been dispatched to Kyiv.

Did Dani Sinha presented Newsday alongside either Sharanjit or Ali today? If so, I would think this is her first Newsday appearance.

Well Sharanjit presented Asia Business at 3:30 on the NC so I think it was Sharanjit.


Dani has presented Newsday before however, not sure how many times but there is a clip in her showreel http://youtu.be/ETAYadA9W1o

So she did presented Newsday before, probably on rare occasions. Adnan, is tied up at the moment, with Babita likely on leave. Kasia Madera tweets she's doing WNT. Daniela Ritorto probably not available too, hence Dani takes up.


Karin on Impact now. I think Global is now on the same trend as Impact when Mishal left, ie. with almost erratic pattern of presenters popping up everyday.

James Coomerasamy shows up on 8am slot just now, another rarely appearing presenter. I supposed he's doing radio most of the time based on his Wikipedia article.

Sure this has been posted elsewhere - but Evan Davis is replacing Jeremy Paxman as the new presenter of Newsnight : http://www.theguardian.com/theguardian/2014/jul/25/evan-davis-profile-newsnight-bbc-paxman-anchor

Also interesting that the Guardian reports Eddie Mair was offered it first but turned it down.

James' main job is presenting Newshour on the BBC World Service.

Brilliant Maitlis interview doing the rounds at the moment. Newsnight. With Israeli Government spokesman. She literally had the man trembling.
