Up until a few years ago, the BBC What's On website used to tell you who would be presenting the One, Six and Ten and even told you who would present each shift on BBC News 24. That's long gone now, though. It's usually just a general comment about the programmes.

ITV used to put up detailed listings of who would be presenting on the ITV News Channel for a while

So did the ITV News Channel thread, but to a more scary extreme

No offence, but thank you to whoever started this thread for providing those of us presenter-roster-phobes with a place not to visit! Wink

Not to mention the other, rather important, fact to consider.

If it had been you who posted Jill Dando's roster for the week she died on an open web forum, would you have liked to explain to her family why it was you who told the murderer where she would be and when?


Lol. That's a bit ridiculous. There is plenty of celebrities whose work rotas are fairly obvious. A potential killer might know when they'd not be working, but that doesn't mean that they'd know where to find them and if they had their address then they wouldn't need to know when they were working, surely they'd just stalk their house a bit.

You seem to have a lot of insight.

Stalk much?
