I'd rather have Shereen Nanjiani and Viv Lumsden any day.


Hmmm I'd prefer just having Jane myself! Laughing Wink

Well there is ALSO John MacKay - I mean hey - who needs Sean Connery when there's John eh? Laughing Wink John can do Sean's job 50 times better than he can - no doubt about it.

Both are very hacked off at the way news is being managed and both can't wait to move on!!


I reckon that's the way it is for everyone in Glasgow Newsroom now. Crying or Very sad

I'm a bit worried about this split because to my memory, this is going to be the first time ever that Edinburgh Newsroom is going be used to it's almost full capacity! Shocked

Agreed Laura - John is more of a babe than Sean!! Laughing
I would say that many are hacked off, and I think that with this new set up - it may push more to jump ship; as I get the sense that this is not what the journalists want!

Well it's good to know that we (the faithful) and Journalists are one team! Wink As to be honest, we didn't want all this mumbo jumbo either - did we? I don't think that SMG have worked out that if MORE journalists/presenters jump ship - they'll take their fanbase with them (wherever they go)!.

If she wants to remain onscreen - I just hope Jane transfers onto a channel that I can get on Freeview Crying or Very sad - because I can't afford to pay for Sky Sports! I've also heard that Setanta isnae very goodn either. Shocked

Garry - the only problem with your idea is that Louise White isn't that well received in the East imo. She's quite Glaswegian. Very good presenter but just don't know how well she'd go down at that side of the country.


Really? I had no idea. Where did she work before STV?

It's not so much where she worked. It's more how she sounds. She has a well spoken Glaswegian twang. Lovely reader with a lovely voice but not for everyone!

However, in answer to your question, before STV Louise presented Good Morning Scotland on BBC Radio Scotland.

She was also a producer at BBC Highland in Inverness. Wink

Hmmm Confused

Shereen, Louise AND Raman for the 3rd time running! They really do seem to be doing a bit of experimenting now eh? Anyone think that they are surveying how the show would go without the fab three, an also what affect it'll have on the viewers? Confused

I don't know if you've heard, but former Scotland Today Newcaster Kirsty Young has given birth to another girl - Iona! Wink It's a sister for her other daughter, 5yr old Freya! awwww Very Happy

Anyone notice in tonights show where Raman handed back to Shereen and Louise before he was actually meant to? Shocked

He had forgot to do the story with Liz McColgan in it, and he handed back to the girls, which left poor Shereen who didn't expect the hand over so soon - shuffling the scripts and trying to go back to the story (which she did thankfully! Very Happy )

I'll bet he paid for that, when they were "out" (off air)! Laughing
