The front page of the mirror appears to suggest Sky News has lost,in my opinion a real talent,Emma Crosby.

I will miss Emma on Sky, she's one of my favourite presenters. Can't handle morning TV though, radio is about all I can manage at that time of day, unless I'm off or something. But I may make the effort for her first few shows to have a look, mainly out of curiousity to see her on something else.

I used to love her and Chris Roberts together on weekends and bank holidays a few years ago, quite a good pairing those two. She's good on the business news as well it has to be said, although it's not a very meaty role for her so I can understand her decision.

I agree. Emma was darn good!!! Ice cool and authoratitive at the same time.

However, I will always remember her appearance on Sunrise one weekend with Steve Gaisford, when both of them were caught out eating McVities Digestives live on air during a filmed report. LOL.

Wasn't it Chris Rogers? She was good with Steve Dixon too. She never got on with Simon McCoy though.

Chris Rogers left Sky about a month after Emma Joined, and she only presented on Sunrise at first. Karin Giannone done many shifts with Chris Rogers though.

No, definitely Roberts.

I wonder who will replace her on the business news? Maybe Jason De La Pena?

Sad news for Sky, but probably great for Emma, wish her all the best.
That cookies moment is so funnt, the look on her face is priceless.

Emma did most of her anchoring with Steve Dixon and they were great pairing, there were even rumours they were engaged but it was a lie.

I agree she was also good with Chris on weekends before they scraped 2 anchors format. Sad

Paula Middlehurst just said it's her last day at Sky today, presumably she meant she is starting her maternity leave and she will be back.
