Yes, it's Geraint and Nina on the Evening News Tue/Wed/Thu, and Steve and Nina on Friday.

James Mates is doing the 10.30 Tue-Fri.

The Radio Times doesn't show who will be presenting the Lunchtime News, as usual, but hopefully Katie will be back, (after all her holiday did start a week before Mary's).


Edit: added a quote of the Londoner's message as my one ended up on a new page.

Have to say I think Geraint has been doing a great job.

I must admit I'm warming to him. He seems less shouty and wooden than he did earlier on. At one point I turned around as I thought Mark Austen was on, his voice sounded quite similar.

Not that anybody cares.

As they say, practice makes perfect - but practicing on the flagship bulletin isn't the best idea!

This is yet another reason why they miss the ITV News Channel - but even without it they could test out potential newsreaders on either the Morning News or London Tonight.


They should consider giving him the sport slot on the 10.30pm bulletin - it be good to have a regular sports presenter back, and also is a good place to get the viewers used to him as a potential regular stand in.

Returning to the lunchtime news thing....

has it been confirmed who's presenting it yet? I can't see them keeping two presenters for the one bulletin.

And if there is one, it'll no doubt be nick. And Katie would be relegated to London Tonight only again.

But then again, perhaps Nick will become evening news presenter so Mark can do the 10.30 only?

As has already been said, there was a period of time when the Lunchtime News did have two regular presenters, so it's quite possible that it'll happen again.

I dont see why they need 2 presenters on a 30 minute lunchtime bulletin - which will probabaly be down to about 20 minutes when you take into account the advert break and regional news - the 10.30 doesnt need 2. Fair enough the 6.30pm as that is the flagship bulletin and needs 2 presenters.

The period before was when the lunchtime news was 30 minutes with the regional news seperate.

Manners would probably help your find. And perhaps posting in the right forum?

That could mean that no body has it. Or that what you are requesting is library music *hint*
