Yes indeed. Normally Adnan Nawaz fills in when Peter is away.

Dobs for the late shift tonight as well!

Chris Eakin handled the post-1.30 part of his shift solo today (I don't know if he was solo for the whole shift??). Glad to see him 'dayside'. I suppose in the scheme of things he's probably on air as much as he was before, just in a different shift, and he certainly handles breaking news better and has far more personality than Clive, IMO.

(Also Emily's on now - I don't know if this helps any of the rota lovers work out what her shift is now?)

Simon & Sophie presented the 830-11 when Sophie was joined by Chris until 1 when Kate took over for the Network broadcast.

It appears Chris Eakin's regular hours are now:
Friday 11am-2pm with Sophie Long;
Saturday and Sunday 4-8pm.

As for Emily I think she presents one afternoon a week with Matthew Amroliwala.

Has Fiona Bruce presented from the new studios yet?

I guess she could be recording a new series of Antiques Roadshow, a shame she has missed out on the launch if so.

Yes, she did News at Ten on Thursday/Friday of the NBH launch week.

Has Linda Yueh now started as Chief Business Correspondent? I see she has added her new position to her twitter profile so I wondered if she has been on screen yet.

Isn't it a WN-only position?
