I never realised that the reporter Siobhan Casey was married to the sports presenter Andy Kerr. I read this on the ITV Tyne Tees website.

Jonathon Morrell presented the lunchtime news, I think this is his first weekend broadcast in a while! Looks like no one else was availible.

Edward Baren presented yesterdays programmes and I find him awful presenting - he should stick to reporting!

There appeared to be some problems with the Breakfast bulletins on Look North this morning.

At 6.25, Colin "Nor'easterly" Briggs' autocue had failed, and he had to read the bulletin from his paper scripts.

Then at 6.55 and 7.25, we had Claire Frisby's bulletin from Leeds instead. I didn't see anything after that, so don't know if they managed to get everything sorted.

Next it will be saying that the North edition of NET is presented by Phillipa Tomson and Jonathon Morrell.

I only managed to catch the start of the Look North programme at 6.30 and everything was fine.

on some days of the week on the ten oclock news,when the main headlines are read and they have handed over to looknorths headlines the bed changes back to the old one for some reson ,it souds dredfull and it must only be one operator thast is playing it because the nice sounding new one is on the one and the six and even the ten on some nights but it dosent mach the titles and sometimes it plays over the opening titles,the point im trying to make is ,how can a gallery oporator not know that the beeb has a new headline bed i mean come on Rolling Eyes Idea

in fact the old one is often played on fridays so turn the volume up tonight and you will know exactley what i mean (if you live in the region of corse or you could just see it on sky) Exclamation
