Great to international and world news taking such a lead on Sky, just not a certain former White House advisor presenting it!

I think he'll be forever infamous for his presenting of innernashnull nooos.

For me, there should be far less speculative coverage of UK politics. We all know why they do it, of course ... to be the politicians' 'friend' for when something of actual interest does happen.

I don't know if any of you watch Russia Today on european satellite, but apart from the variable presenting quality it provides a very interesting coverage of world news.
I think Sky News is often far too blinkered in its remit of what it covers, so the more world news they decide to do, the better.

Allan King came away with a cracker whilst doing a Sky News Active Mini-Screens Promo during "Saturday Live."

"Eight screens to choose from - and look, there's even Helen (Fospero) on the bottom left screen. I'll bet you'd all like to see her in full size, Ho, Ho, Ho.....", or words to that effect.

So, where is Martin Stanford anyway? Another holiday weekend? Lucky thing.......

Fernando - there was something in the air last night. Did you spot it?

Must be as he has been on SNT for most of the week, though I prefer Allan so I'm not complaining!

Those stars were very bright, weren't they ?

We don't see this often at the Sky Centre; two male anchors (Martin Popplewell and Colin Brazier) anchored On The Hour from 5-12 last night.

No, not that!! I meant the outrageous on-air flirting the other night between Paula Middlehurst and Popplewell!! Goodness, there definitely WAS something in the air that night.............Mamma Mia!!

On the subject of Colin Brazier, I have just watched him presenting the Sunday Boulton Show, and I have to say, he is rather good and somewhat refreshing!! I never used to like him much, but he is starting to grow on me. (Brazier).

He seems quite passionate about his broadcasts. I don't think he's just in it for the Money Money Money.......

jury's still out on popplewell for me, but if he fancies a bit of Paula then he's gained a bit of my respect! Laughing she's a stunner!

No, not that!!

I thought you were alluding to the 'fernando' song lyrics ...
Once again, my insightful wisdom was misplaced ...
Very Happy

I suspect she's barking up the wrong tree with that one.

As for Brassiere, I am also a fan and like to adorn one whilst I parade around.
