Hope that Dominic di Natale has gone away forever, I really can't stand him.


Really? I quite like him, he has quite a relaxed style to his presenting as do most BBC News Business presenters now that I think about it which is different to the other networks so it makes a refreshing change. You should watch what you say about him as well since he did post on this forum for a while and possibly still keeps an eye on it!


I don't know why but when I see him I feel the need of switch the tv off. Very different is when I see my beautiful, charming, enchanting Darshini David. I would like her to tell me about business news 24 hours a day. Does anyone know anything about her?


ummm shes on quite alot!! thats all I kno, I do remember her first World Business Report... She looked at the wrong cameras alot and her sign off was practically 2 minutes long... well not really but it was an awfully long good bye!! I did see Aaron last week which was surprising but a nice surprise!! I quite like him.

The new set really HAS grown on me now. I like it, and I like the intros.

Not so sure about the regional opt outs though. They still had problems with those last night.

Manisha continues to show her increasing confidence and flexibility on BBCW. Would like to see her sitting in the right hand seat for a change. I think she would be capable, and could easily make the transition as well as Adrian Finighan and Mishal Hussein did.

Wish I had seen her... I like Aaron Heselhurst (do I spell it right?) too, his weird way of presenting is quite funny... but Darshini...

Regional opt outs show no problem here in Europe... Anyway I sometimes miss the old set... its darkness was great for early morning and night time bulletins and I actually miss the signing offs with their great music and the presenter looking at his/her left. They were the best moments of bulletins.

The lovely Sally Bundock is presenting the evening editions of WBR today. She's really good, isn't she?

The BBC4 bulletin usually takes a break for Christmas and returns in the New Year. If you remember, after the Christmas break last year, the programme re-launched as "The World" on its return in early January. It's usually replaced with a normal bulletin for BBC World viewers, and there is no broadcast on BBC4 in the UK.

Can anyone tell me? On Christmas Day, apart from at night, do News 24 and BBC World do a shared broadcast from the same set.
I wasn't sure, being a bank holiday, they may want to combine the two?
