So this week has seen Julia Somerville and Selina Scott return for a one-off on ITV News to mark the channel's 50th anniversary. But what newsreaders would you like to see return to your favourite networks on a permanent basis - from Sky, BBC, ITV to Five.

I would love to see Peter Sissons return to the BBC News at 10.

I'd prefer Michael Buerk going back to the Ten rather than Sissons

Hmm not after his recent comments/documentary. He showed what a bitter man he is, however, his autobigoraphy is very good.

Anyway, I'd like to see Carol Barnes return to the newsdesk, even if it were only for a one off like this week.

Are you talking about a different Chris to the freelance ITV News Channel presenter?

he's talking about the freelance ITV News presenter who members of this forum called a black asylum seeker and other things which i won't mention.

(well, maybe I will. in case you didn't know a member of this forum accused CR of drug use apparently.)
