I really think they should give Jenny's position over to a great female presenter/reporter used by Meridian East. Her name is Lis Spieght.


Give it to Fiona (dizzy as can be, but great on air) or poach one of the Points West talent pool. Any one of their female presenters could out do the Hull. (Imogen Sellers looks great but no doubt will be overlooked in favour of Amanda. And Sally Challoner or Susan Osman are both well known and off-screen at the moment. Either one would be a great coup!)

All wrong, I'm afraid. The job has been given to ........

An ex-Sky News person. How long do you think I can tease this for?

EX SKY¦News ? Hmmmm - someone has already mentioned Liza Aziz. Jayne Secker is still working for Sky.

I'm sticking with what I've already said.

It was Lisa Aziz on the previous page, and it still is.

And for your bonus points ...

... I hear news they are spending a fair few pennies on a new set too. Interesting times ahead for HTV. They said it could never happen.

I need to lie down, far too much going on at the Brislington studios, next you'll be telling me Richard Wyatt is back and Mike Bibb will be doing the weather!!!

Take from the "TALENT" pool of Points West. What talent? Lis far outdoes any of the people on the Beeb or ITV West News - you just have to give her a chance to prove herself. She's a great all-rounder, can lend her hand to the light-and-fluffy and more serious stuff - and as far as studio presentation is concerned - wow - have you ever seen her present a programme? She at least comes across as having the 'human' touch - some people just don't like to smudge there make-up or move there head for fear of messing up a hair-do.
Come on - be fair - move over old farts and let someone new have a go!!

Both me and Nick have already told you who has got the job, though ... There's not been any official confirmation, but trust me, it IS Lisa Aziz.
