Matt Teale making an appearance presenting on this evening's program, is this his first weekend presenting??


He also did today's ITV Lunchtime News, which I think is a first.

He did the lunchtime news on a Sunday 2 weeks ago.

I assume the same presenter does both the national lunchtime news and London Tonight on a Sunday every week.

I see that the presenters now introduce themselves at the start of the programme.

It was a bit ridiculous that their names were never mentioned anywhere - no announcement, no aston, no nothing.

Alex on the late news! Very Happy


you was so excited you posted it twice!! Laughing

I missed it - I still don't know why they didn't use her as the backup to Katie - instead of Lucy ( even though I like her, Alex is 10x better!) Although as said at the time, were not sure who's choice it was.

Talking of which , I was thinking tonight that it still isn't the same without Alastair. Although his on straight afterwards , LT suits him much more! Matt has fitted in to be fair, but you can't beat a legend like Alastair!

Yeah I know Alistair got on with everyone. Just thinking aswell how ITV London Tonight should have changed its presenting schedules if everybody was willing to.
I think Ben should have become the main presenter of London Tonight with Matt joining the team and being Bens London Life Role. Matt would have also covered the bulletins.
Because Ben would be the main presenter Alex Hyndman could of gone onto the late london news and fill in for Katie. Nina and Lucy are just terrible tbh. For example this evening Nina was sitting there all slouched, she doesn't work well with Matt or Ben for that matter she always seems miserable and I would rather see her go onto the national news. As for Lucy, sweet and jokey but presenting style she is not. Alex did a brilliant job and sometimes I would rather see her then Katie and for example this week how many times has Katie presented, once. So lucky us have Nina and Lucy. Joy!!
