Thanks BBCNicky and AdamABC

Spelling errors do annoy me as well, but sometimes its just down to human error, not as if my post was full of mistakes or txt speak Wink

Thirty years ago today, probably ITN's most popular and famous presenter, Reginald Bosanquet, died. A great man, with a career subsequently cut short by drinking. For those of you who remember watching him, does it feel like thirty years had passed?

Charlene White is back on NaT tonight with Mark Austin. It's good to see Charlene getting a more prominent role on the national bulletins...
STV Today, ASO and London Lite gave kudos

Totally agree Gary; I really warm to Charlene. I hope she does continue to do well and we see her more on News at Ten!!

Since at least the pre-car park era I'm sure.

Why have we suddenly changed the lunchtime and weekend evening programmes to double headed? Certainly no need for the weekend to have two people. Geriant hasn't done presenting for years now iirc? I'm sure he hasn't done it in the current era and can't even recall him in the yellow car park era?
Is Natasha still apart of the presenting line up- can't remember last time she was on the news? Charlene & James are certainly the main relief presenters ATM. Can't see ITN going for a female doubled headed as a regular thing or for Nina to host all three national programmes in one day- that's only ever done in emergencies.

Also I don't think totally fantasy rotas are what this is about- I do think discussing the presenting is a topic but more on track discussion about what's actually happening?
