Blimey what is it with old CBBC presenters getting jobs on Sky? I've just seen Ana Boulter doing the overnight news, Simon Thomas on Sky Sports News and Chris Rogers.

all new Phil
Am loving Ana Boulter on overnights at the moment, she's been on last two nights now. She's a great presenter, although her facial expressions remind me of those of a very proud mother.

Very funny moment last night, she was showing the front page of the Daily Star to the camera, and decided to open it to show page 2... unfortunately the camera was zoomed in on page 3, and it took her several seconds to realise. Bet she got an earful fron the producer over that Laughing

Ana was also a CBBC presenter.


Is there any precedent for this career change? Excepting newsround presenters of course?

I wondered whatever happened to him. Is it a digital, cable or local channel? Is he any good?

Firstly Channel M is an RSL channel for Manchester, but it is also broadcast on NTL Digital Channel 26 for all of Greater Manchester, parts of Lancashire and most of North Cheshire.

Secondly he isn't too bad as a presenter, granted you can't take him as a serious News presenter or journalist, but he does the job well, it tends to be more light hearted, but saying that most of whats on CMN is usually featured again on Granada Reports of North West Tonight.

On Sky news Today, look at the screen behind the presenters in the standy-up area. It's a wallpaper with a dark red/blue skysports style background and a darker looking sky news logo. Has this got something to do with the new look

Someone mentioned this before, but unfortunately it's not a clue to the new look! You can get it from Sky News Centre, it's one of mine. Someone there must've liked it!
