What the? I never knew he had passed. ☹️
Me neither. How sad. Favourite presenter of all time. True professional.
Agreed, a class act and a steady presence.
Today marks the 1st anniversary of the passing of the great Alastair Yates.
Here's an almost complete bulletin of news from 2005.
Always remembered, never forgotten.

Lead story and also 2 or 3 more segments later in the bulletins. Various expert interviews. Company statements. Some prerecorded and replayed.
Haven’t seen telephone numbers given though, if that’s what you mean? (Help or Info Lines for stranded pax)
How extensively are BBC World reporting on the Thomas Cook collapse, especially with regard to practical information and advice for holiday makers abroad?

Are they being advised to sit tight, and carry on as normal with their holiday, (as the CAA are stepping in to pay the hotels and fly folk home on or near the scheduled return day)?

Did 'UK Today' use the standard BBC News out-cue or did it use the original region the story was cut for?
I know Midlands Today have had packages on air with 'BBC Points West' at the end, and in one case BBC Points West astons, and PW have aired a Midlands Today out-cue - I think it was the same package - maybe the reports weren't named correctly?
Of course they did try this with the 1999/2000 rebrand when the regions went corporate. Over the shoulder graphics and outcues were just “BBC News” but this was soon relaxed.

He means the out-cue of each report - ie Joe Bloggs, BBC Look North, Leeds. I don't know the answer though.

Sorry, I didn’t manage to see that degree of detail. But away from the newsroom, this is indeed the advice being given to those “stranded” overseas.
The British Government is mobilizing several large volume aircraft to combine flights and bring people home.
Oddly, a Malaysia Airlines Airbus A380 will operate a double Manchester to Palma tomorrow, uplifting around 600 people in each sortie.
Sorry for the thread creep.
Having just tuned in again a short while ago, World is still leading with the same story.
