It looks like Maddy Savage who presented Newsround for a while, more recently she's a news correspondent for BBC News.


Oh okay, I recognised her!

According to a tweet from Amelia Harris-Lindsay, overnight Sport Today bulletins will be from Salford from the early hours of Tuesday morning.

World are staying at Lund Point until the end of the overnight shift on Sun/Mon.

Sport Today is coming from TVC and N8 at the momet, and from the main desk in fact. They're using a red orange back lighting combo never seen before in N8. It's coming from the main desk and not the pod. Presented by Francis Collings.

Link down.

Kasia also had problems handing to Matt Gooderick on their last ever shift together. Matt's final bulletin will be at 0620am London time with Martine Dennis. Sad

Worlds technical woes continue today. Sport Today failed to play the music, but Amelia's mic was up, unbeknown to her. She noted the tape fail and was telling the gallery to play the sting. Then later during a head on shot of a studio guest, Amelia could be seen encroaching into shot and waving away people from the set. They must have had some major studio comms issues in Salford.

Then at the TOTH in London, Lucy Hockings on World Have Your Say, but the graphic and news wall background was playing The Hub loop rather than the WHYS one.

Tanya Beckett is doing a double shift as well, it would seem. She's on World News Today at the moment and, presumably, will do Business Edition later, although we will see who does the WNT Biz Segment shortly.

Karin Giannone did both Impact and The Hub today as well.

Tim surely must be on Mars, then?

But this hour, we have her cousin, Tania Beckett, reading the news. Ironic that their names are so closely similar.

I assumed Francis has left the BBC. I certainly haven't seen him since the sport updates have been coming from Salford.

Actually, Jamie Robertson turned up for Business Edition last night. Long day for him, after doing the midday shift as well.
