So who will get Your Money? Victoria Fritz, Ben Thompson, Maryam Moshiri or an opportunity for Alice Baxter?


Not sure, just waiting for someone to fax me next week's rota.
JasonB, TVAND and London Lite gave kudos

It can't be Maryam she will end up going up on maternity leave soon enough.

Everyone's favourite Business presenter Declan Curry has announced this is his last week of regular programme-making at the BBC - considering there have been quite a few adverts for it recently I imagine Your Money on the NC will continue, albeit with someone else at the helm.

Delcan says that Ramzan Karmali will be back next week, maybe he is the replacement for Declan on Your Money. Rolling Eyes

Is Declan's departure down to the cuts?

It seems as though he doesn't want to leave. He's been the face of business for many years on the BBC - professional but so affable and funny.

Lebo Diseko on BBC World weekend (got me wondering a week ago who she is).

you just dont know who will turn up on BBC World, seemingly little consistancy this year even the themed shows have had almost different presenters.

And apart from the rota gatherers, who actually cares? It's not like the presenters are complete randoms who nobody's seen before or since, they're all from the BBC World "stable", so its not damaging to the brand.

Declan used to present a Sunday business programme on Five Live and on the news channel - one followed the other using the same quests. The news channel version was scrapped and then the Five Live version has now been scrapped.

I guess it has reached a point where for either Declan and or the BBC see it as no longer appropriate to present a short strand once a week.

I think Declan had also been providing some cover for business news on Five Live but I guess that's a bit ad hoc.

The BBC seem to now have a very small team of core business presenters now.

Mike Embley on World News Today. A rare appearance.

And it's Tanya Beckett on The World Today (not WBR mind you). The day just doesn't get any weirder, does it?
