5 News

For goodness sake (again). This is not about the actual likelihood of her reading your post. I doubt she ever will. But the principle is this: are you saying something you would to her face, or are you just hiding behind text because it gives you a false sense of bravery?

Im not hiding and this forum is to give views about five news and my view natasha is not right for five news at this moment and if she asked me I would say that .

Natasha Kaplinsky should move on. Revamp Five News. Make the main programme double-headed. Matt Barbet and Andrea Benfield. The two presenters share bulletins.

Natasha has another baby and another baby.

I Would not hire Andrea Benifiled .

Romily Weeks is Frelaunce she would suit five .

Your joint inability to process criticism is impressive.

Frankly this is disturbing, perhaps you should suggest Five arrange to have her tubes tied as part of contract renewal?

Certain individuals are turning this forum into a joke. And ginofish, this forum actually isn't for you to give your views on Five News. It's here for you to give your views on the television presentation of Five News and other broadcasters - that doesn't officially extend to presenters, and it certainly doesn't extend to whether they should be able to have babies or not.

Please learn what criticism is and to respond to the actual arguments someone is presenting you with, rather than simply restating the comment that sparked the criticism.

Er, you really need to learn how to spell better.

Because obviously the presenters have nothing to do with the presentation. Hence the stems of the two words are totally different.

It doesn't really matter what the 'stem of the word' is. The issue here is basic levels of decency. The listing of tiny details of the rotas and what they might mean (are they being tried out for Newsround?) is bad enough - it's very boring and rather creepy - but this often goes further and we end up with comments like 'is Huw Edwards up the duff?' and 'is George Alagiah off today because it's half term and he wants to spend time with his kids?' I've already explained the problem with those sorts of comments, but to reiterate - it genuinely frightens me to think that I'm posting on a forum which not only allows this, but encourages it with the separate threads.

I think we can all agree that presenters are important to presentation. Adrian Chiles and Christine Bleakley joining Daybreak is interesting. Their replacements on the One Show is interesting. Updating our spreadsheets to take into account the irregularity of the presenter doing the 2am on BBC World is just odd, and the speculation as to what discussions have taken place at Five News over Natasha Kaplinsky is scary.

Please, stop.

The main title of the thread doesn't specify whether this is a presentation discussion or a purely presenter-based one. So I think we are open to discuss all aspects of Five News including Natasha Kerplunky.

I'd like to post this again to make sure Danslink doesn't ruin my moment with his obvious point.

I think a full hysterectomy is the only option here, particularly if people are going to just start "meating" her at random intervals.
