Seeing as February was mentioned, I imagine it would be changed either tomorrow or Monday the 27th.


Won't tomorrow be the ideal day when all of the regulars return seems as though school holidays are now over?

Lucy is doing a great job settling in at Sky News, it's a shame that they can't fit her somewhere permanently.

Steve Gaisford back doing the sport today, appearing on Sunrise so far. He is, IMO, more suited to the News now.

Mr. Holmes looks a tad tired this morning.

I'd say there are three contenders, Lucy, Faye Barker or Grainne.

Out of those three, I would opt for Lucy without a shadow of doubt, as I don't think Grainne has the experience, and neither of the other two connect with the viewer IMHO.
