Also lets hope that Anita McNaught's (TVNZ Correspondent ex BBC World Presenter) husband gets freed safely along with the Fox journo who were kidnapped the other day in Gaza. Its been all over the news here in NZ and Anita certainly isn't looking her best.. and she looks so different. Ill try get some caps from the late news tonight or in the morning.

Is she working whilst the safety of her husband is unsure??? I would have thought bosses would have common sense to keep her away from work.

I mean, you can imagine how she'd feel if on her ENPS one of the wires pops up and it's related to the safety of her husband, then you'd have a bit of a nasty situation on your hands if she's live and the news wasn't good. Hopefully though, that won't happen on both accounts.

She was in the middle east at the time, cant remember where but shes been doing lots of reports for TVNZ's Close Up programme. so she has stopped working to focus on whats need to be done and there is the odd live cross on One News.

TVNZ also have to other correspondents in the Middle East, so I doubt they would go to Anita to break the news to us.

Interesting to see the old N6 backdrop. Was this from a recent edition?

*edit* - puts brain in, it's about lebanon so of course it's recent.

oh well, interesting nonetheless.

And does that pre-date May 2005 when the national news adopted that background?

No the studio was only changed earlier this year, there used to be just a red curtain to the right of the picture. Also the backdrop is not a carbon copy of the background used between 2005 - 2006 on the National News, this background has been modernised to suit the studio.

That background went in in June last year when WBR moved into the studio

I've just seen Anita Mcnaught on BBC World making appeal for her husband. It was really sad and after that David reminded us that she used to work for BBC, his voice was a bit shaky.
