My schedule would be

5.30 - Sandy Gall
5.45 - Sir Trevor Macdonald
12.34 - Ant and Dec
3.25 PM - The Queen
6.34 (just to make the times equal) - Reginald Bosanquet and Moira Stuart
10.30 - Pete from Big Brother

with minutely news and traffic updates from Owen Thomas and Stephen Cole

What do you think?

But that doesn't leave time for the James Ison and Zippy hour.

Leyla did the first ITV News bulletin of 2006, during the transition from 2005 to 2006 at new year. And that was the last we saw of her, ironically. I think it is news@itv.com or maybe there is some kind of duty press officer.

I thought she presented on London Today/Tonight since then but I could be wrong. Usually when I watch bulletins on London its Ben or Jonathan now.

Yup she definetly did New Year - with Lucy Owen at christmas i think. Maybe Leyla has taken a break from TV?

I'm sure Leyla has cropped up since New Year on one or two ITV bulletins, probably the Lunchtime News.

Talking of News Channel presenters, what happened to Andrew Harvey ? Has he retired ?

No, she hasn't, as far as I know. It would have been mentioned on here if she had, it would have been a big thing to see her. Leyla presented London Today/Tonight while Katie was on maternity leave and Nina covered for the evening and lunchtime news. Felicity did Christmas Eve, Lucy did Christmas Day and Nina did Boxing Day. I wonder what it will be this year? I think definately Lucy, although she has moved up in the ranks, or the amazing Geraint Vincent. Possibly even Owen Thomas!
Where has O'Hajah gone these days? I'm quite glad she is off my screen, she was awful.

there's no point contacting ITV News. She was obviously made redundant after the closure of the News Channel.

Leyla was still around on London Today until late Jan/early Feb (certainly after the ITV revamp).

I'd guess that was becuase she was rota-ed down to do those bulletins before the NC was closed.
