ITV London Tonight

I Dont think this is a confirmed Gig for Ben either surely his twitter or the LT Website would say something . they wouldant confirm it like this also he may just be a tempory presenter whilst they try to find another one or decide he can have it full time.

I think Andrew Castle would make a good presenter I think he would have good on screen chemistry with Nina , He Presented on GMTV for 10 years so has experience and it would be a good signing in my view . I think Ben should get it and he is long overdue a main presenter job and could also host on itv news as well.

It changed yesterday afternoon

Another one bites the dust at London Tonight as Lucy Cotter will bid goodbye to the programme at the end of the month.

So who do you think will replace Lucy as LT's showbiz correspondent? Jane Witherspoon perhaps from BBC London who is currently the no 2 to Brenda Emmanus. Maybe someone from the ITV regions? Lucy Kite from Central has already covered LT weather and would feel more comfortable returning to her role as a showbiz reporter full time.

Charlene White is almost certain to take up more of her cover work as to the job of Entertainment correspondent it could be Sangheeta Kandola who has filed a few entertainment reports. Alexandra Hill? Faye Barker? Can't think of any other in house names. Jane Witherspoon would be a terrible decision as I cannot stand her voice

Elswhere ITV London are beefing up there facebook page.

So she's joining Sky News - I'm thinking perhaps as Entertainment Correspondent replacing Steve Hargrave?

Out of those names only Charlene and Faye are contracted to ITN. The others are freelance.

Lara Lewington - shes done some showbiz stuff for five and sky and already does weather.

For presenting cover I would say Charlene white would probably get it.

Could do I suppose.
Jasmine Lowson?
Helen Fospero?

Jasmine Lowson may do but I doubt seeing Helen in that role.

And has covered LT already.

I wonder if Lara and Lucy Kite were screen tested for the role while covering the weather segment?

Lucy Kite does the weather at central right ? , your other forecaaster Emma Jenson is Utilized with my region and is freelaunce so there would then be the need to get another itv regional forecaster were as Lara is one of four weather presenters so could easily get the gig.

Also they need a new cover for Ben and a London Life correspondent - Robin the weather presenter.
