MARY NIGHTINGALE (Fri)

WEEKENDS
Let all the Covering Presenters have a chance (like they do now)

I think it is only right that Alistair Stewart gets some position on itv Main news.

Swap Nina with Katie (old 2003 pairing) and you've got it...

The presenters I like on ITV1 are Andrea Catherwood, Nick Owen, Nina Hossain, Shulee Ghosh, Steve Scott. I dont like Mark Austin or Katie Derham much at all.

I would have this

MORNING NEWS:
Rachel Mctavish

LUNCHTIME NEWS
Andrea Catherwood / Nick owen
(Felicity & James cover)

EVENING NEWS
Nina Hossain / Steve scott
(katie / Mark cover)

10.30 NEWS
Alistar Stewart
(Bill neely cover)

I thought Mark might have a Tonight sort of programme on NC and ITV 1

Who's the woman doing the ITV News now?

Leyla Daybelge - occasional ITV1 Network presenter, NC presenter, currently filling in for Katie on London Tonight whilst she's on maternity.

Plus, give regular presenting to Alastair Stewart & Angela Rippon... one Friday every month, we have an Evening News with Al & Angie?

John

why have you changed it so much to your first suggestion?

I'm missing Katie already.

I'd like to see Katie and Felicity present the News at 10:30, (as has occasionally happened in the past). Seeing a bit more of Carrie Frais, currently on the ITV News Channel, wouldn't go amiss either. Otherwise I'm not too fussed as to who presents what.

To be honest same here, as long as Nicholas Owen, Katie Derham and Alastair Stewart present at sometime or another ITV News does me fine.

Oh come on, let's not constantly post people's dream line-ups of presenters, it's just boring. And why do people like James Mates? I'm sure he's a lovely bloke but he lacks authority and sounds like a bumbling old man. Steve Scott is fab, a true pro and will be a big name in the future.

The usual LN background has returned this lunchtime, as predicted it must have only been ditched temporarily due to events in London.
