Regardin the London mornings, I recall Bettina Leuscher in London being joined by Chris Burns in Berlin for a double headed presentation (or was it that they alternated doing a week each, with someone entirely different in London??? Can't specifically remember.)

However, when they left, Juanita Phillips became the anchor, and in between Juanita and the next regular presenter (who I thought was Becky Anderson?), there was another lady who used to also fill-in on Juanita's days off. I don't know how to say this other than saying it, but she had long curly brownish/reddish hair and was slightly ample and not wafer thin! Can't for the life of me remember who it was. But an English lady.

Then we had Nici Marx for a while after she left BBC World. I don't recall Fionualla on mornings at all.

Why does Monita only have half an hour slot during the day? Seems to be a waste of a good anchor. I know she does other stuff, but wish we would see more of her covering other programmes, like QMB, W1 and CTW.

Oh wow. The great Errol Barnett is down here in Abu Dhabi filling-in for Stan Grant on Prism. Now, where did I put those car keys............................? LOL.

Errol is incredibly good. I enjoy his style of presentation.

It appears that Reggie Aqui in Atlanta is filling-in for Errol Barnett whilst the latter is in Abu Dhabi. Haven't seen Reggie on CNNI for a very long time. He appears to be only half the size that he used to be!

Erroll Barnet anchored Prism from Abu Dhabi last week and it looks like the next week will be done by Nick Robertson who anchored it today.

Asieh Namdar has covered most of Errol's weekend shifts

Nic Robertson only presented one edition of Prism this week (maybe two at the most) from Abu Dhabi. After two days, they reverted to remote presentation from Atlanta, anchored by Isha Sesay, whilst Nic was sent to Muscat, Oman, to cover the release from Iran of the American Hostage Hiker.

I'll bet producers (and viewers) were glad of that hostage release, if you know what I mean...............
