I enjoyed Roger Mosey's analysis of Tom Bradby in the New Statesman:

Roger Mosey posted:
One of the selling points of the ITV bulletin is supposed to be Bradby's scripting: a direct, conversational style laced with opinion that wouldn't get past the BBC's editorial police.

At first I rather liked its freshness, but there are only so many times you can start a programme by saying, "Imagine what it's like to be on a boat in the middle of the Mediterranean," or whatever is the story of the day.

The Bradby on-air persona can feel like the bloke who corners you in the pub and is a bit too pleased with himself.

I'm no fan of Tom Bradby but lets not forget that Roger hired Trevor Nelson as a commentator on the OC of the London Olympics, he really is no judge
bbcfan2014 and Brekkie gave kudos

Julie: "Coming up at Ten, see what happens when I met my cousin".

Is this long lost family?!

Meanwhile Huw Edwards was fawning over Beyonce.

Good to see that when the Champions League highlights return that News at Ten is keeping it's 10pm slot, although I suspect even if News at Ten aired at 10pm exactly for the next five years thanks to the last 15 it would still be dubbed "News at When".
