ITV London Tonight

Oh no!!!! Keir Simmons is going to die 10 years earlier than what he should!! TV wont be the same!

Well i want to give him CPR first .

Yesterday and today the main programme has been called London Tonight despite the earlier time. I wonder if they will call it London Today or London Tonight on Thursday when it is at 3.30?

In the LNN days the name of the early evening weekend bulletin used to vary depending how early/late it was in the schedule. I don't know what the threshold was? 5pm maybe?

Ahh you see James, in those days and days prior to the not-so-great big ITV change, they knew how to do it properly.
I can only liken the new look London Today/Tonight programme as the Daily Star of TV. Its a bit like yesterday's fish 'n' chip paper, only you can use it today and throw it in the bin and KNOW you've missed nothing.

I see that Nazanine Moshiri (recently at Sky News and Radio 1 Newsbeat) has joing the ITV London News team - she's been reporting in recent days and is presenting this morning's bulletin.

Like Glen Goodman, Tamzin Sylvester and others, she has previously worked with Stuart Thomas at LBC/IRN/News Direct.

If I recall, Nazanine was the city reporter on LBC/News Direct?

Fianlly they get the title right for the right time. Todays main programme was called London Today.

That's good - it was still very much Meridian Tonight at 3.30pm today

Again yesterday a classic Kier Moment, we're all going to get killed by cycling, the roads are far too dangerous. Does this man ever stop moaning? London's not that bad to work in!

Even though we're Granada Reports, they always kept saying Tonight!!!

It was 3.30pm for crying out loud!

I wonder how long it will take them to sort out the ITV London website?

Four months on from the London News relaunch, www2.itv.com/london still has a pointless scrolling ticker linking to the old London Tonight site which gives a 404 error.

And there's no sign of the new site at www.itvregions.com/?region=London launching yet.

London Tonight gets funnier and funnier, or is that crapper and crapper. On Tuesday's show, they had a timer counting down the seconds to the strike. How very inventive and professional I thought.

Yesterday, Simon Harris anchored the strike coverage from Waterloo Bridge (why a bridge one might ask) and the reports included a day in the life of a woman struggling into work. Groundbreaking!!

London News, by contrast had news!! Their reporter was at LIverpool Street, the militant bloke and the Head of the Tube network in the studio for an interview, facts, figures, surely what a news programme simply does!!
