I reckon reporters rather than presenters browse forums like this more, desperate to see if their names are mentioned. I mean, they probably google themselves everyday...Chris Rogers must have...Hey maybe we should invite Chris to join us, there he can have a more central say in what is said (about him).


Who's he?

He's at ITV News but nowadays seems to present LT bulletins a lotwhile Joyce is away. I recently discovered in a thread here that Chris contacted TV Forum after a comment was made about him, which he wasn't too happy about..


Can you post a photo of him, Jonathan? I have no clue who you are talking about actually, but am now curious. Is he the guy who sometimes appears on CNNI's "International Correspondents" programme?

I think he's a good presenter, but has a voice that sort of droans and whines, if you know what I mean. It's quite annoying, but when he's interviewing people, it tends to disappear.

Ah yes, that's him. He is often on CNN's International Correspondents, discussing some speial reports he has done for ITN.

I quite like him actually - he seems to know what he's talking about.

Chris Roger also presented Newsround (and the News 24 spin-off Newsround 24) for quite a while - think he took over from Krishnan Guru-Murthy?

If you ever saw RI:SE, you might have changed your mind on that!!!

Yes he did take over from KGM. Chris Rogers was on Newsround about ten years ago. A friend of mine at school won a competition to do a report with him in Disneyland Paris in 1996 or 1997 (can't quite remember).

Wasn't it mentioned at one point that Adrian Finighan read the forum?
I would also expect a fair few newsreaders read or are members of the forum, but decide not to come forward.
