Oh god, Naga Munchetty is RUNNING from the Presenter chair to Backstage when World Business Report has just finished its headlines... Unaware that she is now on air!

You can see someone telling Naga something, at that point Naga does the runner.

Well Sally is focused on what she has to do on the programme. You can see the floor manager (I think) counting down to the shot but kicked in too early.

Where has Geeta Guru-Murthy disappeared to? She hasn't done the 11.30am BBC Two simulcast for a while now...


I was asking the same question a month or so ago. I guess it's safe to say now that Geeta is no longer with WN. Not sure if she left BBC altogether or if she's doing something behind the scenes or on the radio, like Kirsty Lang.

Anyway, last few weeks Martine has been doing a lot of the late morning (9-1 cet) shift. I sure hope she's the new permanent presenter along with Nik Gowing, at the same time the replacement for Geeta. For the last few years Martine has been wasted on the early morning weekend shift.

Calm down, guys! Geeta Guru-Murthy presents the 0800-1200 GMT shift every Tuesday. And there are even videos of her:

^ But she only did so in the first and maybe second week of the relunch. No one has seen her ever since. But of course she might be back eventually, many have taken long breaks over the years on BBC World.
