I've seen her do it a couple of times in the last year or so but very infrequently and usually on bank holidays. According to the EPG it should be James who isn't doing it for whatever reason.


James is in Athens.

Mary Nightingale presenting News at 1:30. (Beaten to it.)

Mary co-presented the Lunchtime News quite a lot a few years ago. Infact I think it was just before the switch to solo presentation.


And surprisingly it was with Katie.

James Mates is in Greece reporting on the breakdown of the previous government, hence Mary's appearance on the News at 1:30.

EDIT: beaten to it by GMc. I need to stop spending a long time checking my posts for grammatical accuracy! Embarassed

Sorry Nicky. Wink

Quite a coup for ITV News if this tweet is to be believed, which I think it is:

EDIT: DVB beats me to it this time.

With Laura now coming to ITV in September, what effect would this have on Daisy McAndrews position with the new Business Editor being almost duplicate of the Economics Editor with just a different title.

Well it could be all within reports that Daisy is to have a greater role presenting
something which is gradually happening. What with Nina going on maternity leave we may see a lot more of Daisy on the bulletins which ultimately will mean she will take a lessened role to her current position.

Interesting signing - rather a good one too, compared to lacklustre and poor reporters like Jon Clements, Keir Simmons and Stephen Douglas.

It was announced a few months ago that Daisy would become a Special Correspondent for News at Ten, in addition to more relief presenting work. I presume Laura is her replacement, under a slightly different title?

Richard Pallot has just done the 11:25am update, and from the sounds of it he's doing the 1:30 as well. Is this the first time he's presented the ITV News? I know he used to do Channel Report.


Richard Pallot has presented the Morning News in recent times.

Cheers for that Rob.

Huge signing for ITV. It'll be interesting to see if they replace her on the NC. She's arguably one of the best political correspondents the Beeb have. Shame it's ITV, though.
