Thank god, Heather hasn't been pushed aside. She is now having her shot in the new studio. Very Happy

She did the weather too, giving John an opportunity for a cheeky, fun dig at BBC Scotland, referring to her twice as "Heather with the weather".

Raised a grin here Smile

This may sound sad, but I couldn't stop laughing. Embarassed


What a cracker!!

I couldn't stop laughing either!Laughing That was a right peach!Laughing

How ingenious! John's dry sense of humour and cheeky banter have always helped him be a favourite with the viewers.

Lets be honest though, thats the only thing with this new format it has put an end to an extent the cheeky banter bewteen presenters. Although having said that in some ways it has improved the show as since Shereen and Jane left, the banter went downhill. Sad ...but all in all, I am really starting to liek the new format, it gives the show more authority and back to the traditional desk and chair, a move away from that awful sofa/desk combo!

Couldn't agree with you more STA! Wink Since Shereen and Jane left, the banter did dip downhill somewhat, but I don't about you but I took that as a kind of longing! Longing for the return of Sarah, Shereen and Jane Sad

What do you think? Confused

They still have a lot of work to do, as it is currently BBC Reporting Scotland 55% audience share, SMG 45%.

Does that include North Tonight and Lookaround?

North Tonight and Scotland Today.

Well, Lookaround broadcasts in part of Scotland as well.


Not really surprised at these figures John.
Where did you get that from and when are the stats from?

SMG recently released the figures.
Even taking Lookaround into account, the Beeb still has the upper hand.

Well, that's hardly surprising! Smile

In terms of the south of Scotland, Lookaround is certainly more widely watched than Reporting Scotland. Probably because there is hardly any news from the south on Reporting Scotland!

STV will probably be laughing on the other side of it's face when Shereen joins Reporting Scotland.......................inevitable.

She won't be joining Reporting Scotland. She has clearly said she wants to move away from TV.
