Natasha Kaplinsky to the Six

Thanks Dan.
Hurry back Sophie, not a fan of Kaplinsky, she bores me with her me me me voice...

Bloody hell, how many babies has she had now?

This will be her 2nd baby, Sophie had a baby girl in May 2004

Bryan Appleyard in the Sunday Times described Natasha as 'simpering' . What a perfectly tailored word that is.

Did you realise that an anagram of Sophie Raworth is 'Hot Paris Whore'?

Yes.

But, I AM into anagrams, however.

Carp anyone?

Ooohhhh I was going to start with that one. Never mind, here's mine:

* HITS *

I can't understand people going on about "classic" pairings on the 6 o'clock News and Breakfast. The programmes are as cold and unwelcoming no matter who presents them. Give me Kay Burley and Mark Longhurst any time, at least they can manage a smile every so often.

Dermot Murnaghan and Moira Stuart would be an EXCELLENT pairing on the Six.

I so wish the BBC would realise that Moira is wasted on Breakfast. Anyway, I don't want to do what I normally do, and hijack this and turn it into a Moira thread!!

One thing that used to happen in the "old days" was a regional presenter would be drafted in to cover vacationing and maternity periods at the BBC. I don't see why they can't do that directly, as opposed to routing them via News 24.

For example, Sally Magnusson of BBC Reporting Scotland is also a well known network face, and is highly capable (except that time she had the giggles years ago whilst trying to read the Breakfast News).....why not give some more consideration to good, solid regional anchors, as opposed to the hideous Ms Kaplinsky.....who, is very aptly described by someone above.

Sara Edwards would be good on breakfast - Wales Today presenter - very friendly face but I do see peoples point now am warming to Moira after all this time xx

Good luck to Sophie
