BBC News: Presenters & Rotas

Yep! A late call-up. As a consequence, Ben Bland did Daniela's planned overnight slot.

I noticed that Ben did the morning biz updates on the NC, with Victoria Fritz this afternoon.

This happens quite a lot! Ben does most mornings with either Victoria or Caroline doing the afternoons. Especially more since the launch of Business Live.

Is Peter Dobbie still seen on BBCWorld recently?

Yes, Peter does the late (third) shift on Saturdays and Sundays. He also sometimes does the Friday slot vacated by Newsday on that programme's rest day.

Rebecca Pike did biz this afternoon. Did she report for Liquid News years ago?

Rebecca Pike is the Business presenter on the Simon Mayo Drivetime on Radio 2.

She used to present business bulletins on the NC occasionally pre NBH - it rings a bell that she did some weekend overnight shifts on the NC/World for a short period a few years back too?

Rebecca Pike will be doing the Business Segments on the News Channel every Friday from now onwards.

She will continue to appear on Simon Mayo's radio show Monday to Thursday.

Drew is correct wrt the overnights historically.

Lucy Hockings seems to be making her debut reporting on Breakfast live from Gallipoli (top story).

You don't normally see any World presenters on Breakfast do you? Is there any others that have reported for Breakfast?

Err, Naga?

After presenting from Italy last week, Clive Myrie is now again abroad in Nepal covering the earthquake
