Anna Botting staying on from midnight - is this a regular thing?


I have only seen the 9-12 presenter stay on past midnight a few times which is usually for breaking news or if the overnight presenter is late, They used to stay on until 00:30 though when they only did 10-12, I expect at 00:30 they will have the overnight presenter take over

I assume Anna has stayed on tonight to cover the North Korea rocket launch

The overnight presenter referred to above was Charlotte Lomas Farley - formerly of Russia Today, I think.

Have Sky dropped some more reporters on the quiet? Simon Newton popped up on BFBS' The Week in Afghanistan on Sunday (it seems to be where all the ex-Sky News presenters/reporters end up) and his twitter page @skynewsnewton no longer works.

His twitter handle is now @journonewts and his biog says he is a freelancer and reports from Afghanistan for BFBS, as well as reporting for Sky
