So where were World News for the evening?

They have two broadcasts of Outside Source from 8-10pm in one hour slots (8-9, 9-10), the only version broadcast in the UK is 9-10, which has no sports bulletin (World News leaves OS around 9.40pm for Sport Today, where the BBC News Channel in the UK gets continued news stories).

I'm not sure George ever returned to GMT after his first period of extended leave. Lucy Hockings seemed to fill the slot most regularly, although this might have changed more recently. It currently airs for three consecutive hours from 10:00 until 13:00 GMT.

Lucy is still the main presenter Monday - Thursday. Stephen Sackur does Fridays.

Bill Turnbull: wishing you all the best, Sir.

I know Bill doesn’t appear on the news any more, but am sure many of us would wish to send our best regards to the man.

Agreed. It's an awful thing for anyone to have to go through. Bill seems to have a positive attitude toward it which is always a good thing but it's still a lot to get your head around.
All best wishes to Bill and everyone else in a similar situation.

Fiona Bruce makes her presenting debut for ITV tonight hosting a documentary.

Her BBC contract apparently allows her to work for other broadcasters on non-news programmes.

Yeah, I've seen her on Russell Howard's programme for Sky. Which I suppose doesn't fall into news and more comedy.
