As I'm having trouble locating the original Meridian thread, I thought I'd start a new one.
I just wanted to say how pleased I am to see the return of a few freelance faces presenting/reporting Meridian news this weekend. Presenting was Juliette Fletcher (ex Thames Valley) and Abigail Bracken (ex Meridian East)
However, what IS very noticable is the lack of male presenters/reporters on the team...the only male on this evenings bulletin was Martyn Davis doing the weather. What about brining back some of the other male 'favorites'
Paul Fitzgerald, Ian McLaren, Glen Thomsett, Ian MacBride, David Glencorse etc, these guys had real gravitas and authority, something that ITV regional news is badly lacking.
