Life After Frosty

Frost - early next year.
Trevor - late next year

AFAIK he's continuing until the general election.

Ok.

Surely they won't ditch the programme, they'll just get a new presenter. Breakfast with Frost currently provides a useful function in providing clips of politicians to be used on news bulletins later in the day - rather like Sky's Sunday With Adam Boulton and ITV's Jonathan Dimbleby.

I'll be interested to see who they get. Frost has always been seen as quite a soft interviewer by politicians so they're quite happy to go on the programme making it relatively easy to find guests. I'd suspect therefore you won't get the likes of Paxman taking over as he'd scare off too many of them.

It really needs someone with authority and gravitas and probably a bit old-school. Personally I think Michael Buerk would be great at it.

I have always backed Buerk for this role. I think they should have Moira or substitute playing a bigger role too.
another option:
Bill and Sian

Bill and Sian will be returning on breakfast in a few weeks, but could they get their own official progoramme?

I remember hearing talk of them doing their own show at the beginning of the year. I think it then got delayed due to Kilroy being axed and all that causing a bit of chaos.

After Frosty's show finishes, I'd like to see Weekend 24 run on both Saturday and Sunday, with the titles based on the current national news ones albeit with the N24 signature tune!

I would imagine that there will be a replacement programme of simular nature to Breakfast with Frost - there has to be really, otherwise there will be no serious Sunday talk show type programme on terrestial television at a suitable time. I do not think it is appopriate for The Politics Show to take over Breakfast with Frost's duties)

If the BBC want to simplfy things regarding charter negoation, they had better replace Breakfast with Frost with a simular programme.

What about Dateline London with Gavin Esler moving earlier - live on both BBC ONE and News 24 along the same format with Tim whats-his-name doing the summary at the TOTH and headlines at BOTH.

I had an idea last night, I thought every region could have there own Breakfast programme
