New weather presenter is called Lucy, don't know her last name.

New female anchor is Ana Boulter, she has substituted on Sky News on and off for the last couple of months and has appeared on Sky News before on a programme called 3D.

So I take it Ana Boulter was on 3D with Kate Silverton?

Interesting programme, pitty it didn't take off. Had some potential.

... have they now ditched the weather sponsors? They seem to be having live weather forecasters doing the weather forecast at the end of the summaries at the top and bottom of the hour, rather than the presenter doing them from the newswall. Looks a thousand times better.


New sponsor of Sky News weather is Qatar Airways - fairly boring sting into the forecast just a voiceover saying something about the airline over video of an airliner flying through clouds.

I presume the weather promo is internationally syndicated then, and not just UK?

Qatar Airlines would be a pretty bizarre choice of sponsor for a UK-only market.

That weather sting is unutterably horrific.

Yes because that would make sense.
