Lookaround's not that bad. Actually, I think they do fairly well considering their meagre budget.

Yes, sorry about that.

Yup as I said as long as you can watch Yorkshire, Granada, Border and Tyne Tees (when Bob Johnson is off) then you will get the GMG Team, granted no-one is on everyday, and it isn't one person doing 4 regions, it's usually one presenter for 2 regions IIRC. But all presenters appear in all of the Regions at some point or another. But as Paul Hudson is probably well known in Yorkshire, then Yorkshire might be priority.
Though be warned, IIRC doesn't Bob Johnson still do the odd shift for Border Weather or did that end sometime ago? Granada always gets the main Leeds team as there is no dedicated Weather presenter in Manchester except for Fred Talbot, but I guess he must not have wanted to go up to Leeds and wear a suit, hence why he reports on the lighter stories on Granada Reports.

Interesting nwtv - means that when I go on holiday to the Lake District, I could see him. Where we stay has a vertically polarised aerial pointing to the Keswick transmitter, and that carries Border via Caldbeck. It's better for the area than Look North Newcastle so we always end up seeing Lookaround (correct title? It's something like that)....

I've never seen him on Border weather, so if he was, it must have been a few years ago now.

Well, the first seeds of suspicion sown when I e-mailed Harry Gration to see if these rumours were true, but he said he's been told not to say anything about it. I e-mailed another person about it and he simply said 'I think you'll be shocked'. Also, when I told my dad about what Harry had said, dad said that was a bad omen. I've pretty much accepted it now.
