Now, which co-presenters exactly do you think that Owen is trying to impress with his new hair-do???????? Surely not Katie or Leyla or anyone else of that particular "description".

Doesn't he usually co-present alongside John Irvine and Mark Webster, and the like?

Owen, IMO, is actually a very good presenter. I recall him on BBC World many years ago too. (Biz News).

Well, Trevor and Mark are in London, and Mary is keeping up her efforts to grab the ITN Skiver of the Year Award from Trevor McDonald for the first time in five years.

Have you seen the poppies used on ITV News, the green leaves are brown, obviously because the green wall.

Yeah I noticed this earlier, surely it would just make sense for them to remove the leaves, and just have the poppy as some other broadcasters do.

It was nice to see Trevor presenting from Washington, shame they couldn't have made sure the titles were live rather than recorded. I've never seen the sun set so quickly anywhere before Laughing - one minute red sky the next minute black. Laughing I hate to sound pedantic but i will!
