The NEW Central West and BBC Midlands thread

nice cock up at the end of tonight's midlands today ...

MIDLANDS TODAY END COCK UP

nice "pat on the back" style report on central news tonight - even if charles alan spoiled it with his pontificating.

by the way keep you eyes peeled for a new BBC CWR trailer which will soon replace that irritating bbc talent one.

Well Grease mutt was on again last night as the cover for the 10:30 update. He seemed very nervous at times and totally fluffed a few lines, not to mention his appauling speech pattern, uhh,uhh...
Surly there could be "over" cover rather than the Sports Lead? Shef, James, Micheal or even Kay...Anyway I thought she was still the lead releif presenter for MT Breakfast/Lunch?
Nice to see Steve doing well, I hope he follows in Nicks foot steps and does full circle...
And while I'm winging, What the hell is going on with the Weather for MT? Has someone pulled the batteries out?

Happy Birthday Doolan, for Wednesday!!

Franksy now on holiday, for a couple of weeks ,being subbed by Mike Taylor & Trish Adudu, according to the Radio Times.

Today's 95.6 Brekky, Goldie was in the nude(apparantly) for the last hour, 'cos he was focusing on naturalism!

Where's Suzanne on MT at the mo?

This is her 3rd week off, but correct me if I'm wrong, doesn't she have family abroad?

I presume that that is when they constucted a wall to turn what used to be the CNwest/CiTV shared studio, into the separate CNwest and CNeast studios it is now?

By the way, tvmercia, what exactly what the report that your captures are from about?

Listening to Les Ross at the mo.

He has Malcolm Boyden(ex WM presenter) on air now.

Unless he's on tape, he must have stopped /on holiday from doing H&W on Sundays.

Probably promoting his new book.

Amazing how similar they sound in delivery!

Suzanne's back!

It's 850 editions of Network Gold on BBC West Midlands Regional Radio this Saturday too!

charles allen was in town, so the report was basically about how good things are these days at central.

central really pulled out all the stops for tonight’s coverage of the arrest of the bombing suspects. with reporters everywhere, reporting live. fantastic coverage. meanwhile bbc mids effort was passable, but a little half hearted.

Poor Jo Malin - she got soaked!

yes she did what a shame.

but why did they need to presenting back in the sudio? seems pointless as they wernt in more then 50% of the programe and only had a couple of reports.
