The 2200GMT is the 2300BST programme
Interesting also that BBC World often gets more viewers in the states than Newsnight does in the UK

Yet again some brilliant interaction from Adrian Finighan last night. But the regional opt-out shambles are really doing my head in!!!
It's abysmal how they just cannot get this right. I counted seven instances in one bulletin last night where the opt out and opt in's were either too early or too late, cutting the newscaster off mid flow.
Sigh.............

sometimes even joking.
Joking? you have to be joking? right?
No, no, I'm serious. She's got that touch I sometimes think an excellent presenter like Nick Gowing somehow lacks.
Nik Gowing, is 6 millions times better than her, i dont realy like Nik much, so think about that!

What do you reproach him with?
In my opinion he is skilled, experienced, as a newscaster he speaks in a clear and intelligible fashion and gives the impression he knows what he talks about. He knows how to bring a debate forward and does a superb job every time he chairs an edition of "The world debate" and "Dateline London". It seems to me he puts the right and incisive questions to his interviewees. A lack of humour sometimes makes him appear somewhat rigid but this put apart, he's one of the best.

right. It was a real pleasure watching him today. Over the last month or so he's been appearing increasingly relaxed behind the desk. He didn't used to enjoy himself like that. Did you see when he asked Myriam at the end of her business roudup whether she knew quotes by Shakespeare? And when she said he isn't quite a monster, he answered " she doesn't know me very well." Sad to see Kirsty replacing him right now.

He is just fabulous. I think he deserves similar branding to
BIG MOIRA
on her threads.
