ITV News

I think we should just be grateful it's not in the middle of the film for once. Indeed it looks like ITV will manage the whole weekend without interrupting any films for the news, which makes a change.

Mark Austin live from Johannesburg for the Evening News with the latest on the Zimbabwe situation. I'm not sure if Tim Ewart's report was some sort of April fool's joke at the end of the programme, but Mary had a smile to say it was. Better closing shot aswell, the camera zoomed out and you could see the cameras, ]but suprise suprise no camera men]!

Great ending to the evening news showing cameras on the end credits.

Yep, made my day to see an autocue

Actually, I thought they were nice shots of the studio too!

Mark Austin is presenting live from Zimbabwe despite a ban on UK news crews, and the government has lost the Parliament. Surely change is afoot?

Change for Mark Austin as an anchor or Zimbabwe? If you mean the latter, then I assume your local council has disconnected you for the last few days from any means of electricity?

Mary has been doing a single header all evening. She has been very good on her own.

I was nice having Mary present on her own. Although she did mention at the end about Mark.

He better be careful now that two journalists have been arrested. I wonder who they were.

She said Mark has been working undercover. I wonder who for and what doing? Then I thought that it wasn't wise to make that announcement on national TV, then I realised that people in Zimbabwe will hardly be watching ITV News

Erm........I'd hazard a guess at reporting/presenting for ITV News...........

The way it was said suggested something more ...
