There's always a cock-up on the morning news, it's the people in the gallery still half asleep.

That'd be ITV in the wrongdoing though, presumably?

I strongly advise that the above link is removed.

What was the link??
By the way, tomorrow the extended lunchtime news is one year old...it made it I guess, though it would be much better if it was Nick on his own. He worked better without a distraction like Katie, he made the show his own.


Too right, she used to be good, but has gone like Andrea and Mary, stale, rigid, and gormless.

Is the 10.30 still to be renamed? It sticks out so much from the rest of the news bulletins.

I would like to see the return of the "ITV News Headlines" as apposed to the "ITV News Summary".

Anyone know what's happened to Leyla Debelge? Before the news channel closed, she was working her way up on the national bulletins, fronting the evening news and lunchtime news often. Now, it seems, she's left or been sacked. I guess there wasn't much room for her?

Anyone notice that Katies leather purple jacket is actually turning green as the greenscreen is reflecting off it? You could just see while she was talking to someone

I e-mailed ITN but got no response! I would like to know where she has gone.

She's obviously one of the people made redundant following the closure of the ITV News Channel. She was hardly ever on ITV1 and with the likes of Nina Hossain and Andrea Catherwood already filling all available cover slots there wasn't any work for her left

I wonder if thats why Lucy Owen doesnt present any bulletins on ITV1 national news anymore. A shame really.

Same could be said about Lucy Alexander, Faye Barker, and Carrie Frais, hence their move to Sky, though the latter two predominantly appeared on the News Channel.

I'm surprised the likes of Owen Thomas and Phil Gayle are still with ITN to be honest - can't really see much work for them unless McTavish has left the Morning News?

Faye Barker is now with Sky News, and I've heard that Rachel McTavish left long ago.

Did Rachel leave to go to Reuters? Or GMTV? As I've seen her occasionally doing the news summaries. Also, is Nazzzzzzzanine Moshiri the permanent mornings presenter now?
