It looks like John Nicolson finally has his own titles, scrolling on the newswall.


Well I presume that Angie has left the ITV News Channel now, even the NTL EPG had 'Live With John Nicolson', and the NTL EPG is usually rubbish, especially when it comes to stations like ITV News.

Glad to see that the show has been given to him, makes a change than the usual crap offered on a Saturday morning.

She hasn't been on it much recently... I expect they'll still show her promo though!

Sky EPG usually lists it as Live with Angela Rippon, but in the information box it says "John Nicholson stands in..."

It seems Nina is covering Mary, Katie and Andreas role now as it appears she is hosting both the Lunchtime and Evening, possibly until the end of the year.

Nina hasn't had a whole week off since she started at ITV last November has she?

It's a fairly standard thing presenters doing 2 bulletins on ITV News during August

And how is that indicative of how she is coping ? What a ridiculous thing to say.

Women are entitled to 26 weeks standard maternity leave, but can take an additional 26 weeks should they wish, meaning she could be off for as much as a year.

Though it didn't say it on the EPG, today 'Live With Alastair Stewart' was replaced with 'Live With John Nicholson' on the Newswall, presuming this is going to be the norm now when Alastair is on holiday, and rather well deserved might I add, he's been presenting alot at ITN recently.
