Is Jon Gilbert freelance? Personally, I've never seen him report/present on BBC News but I know they have a voiceover for him at ITV News.

He presented the ITV News at 5:30 only a couple of months ago. I haven't seen him since, though.

Andrea Catherwood

Now at bloomberg. Think this was already mentioned but I can't remember.


Anita McNaught

Freelance reporting I think - does alot for AJE?


Manisha Tank (sometimes on CNNI)

Yep she's been on maternity and is back, she's mainly a fill-in on the morning shows for Anjali Rao and Anna Coren although it's a bit all over the place at the moment in terms of presenters!


Veronica Pedrosa / Teymoor Nabili (are they both still with AJE?)

I think they are both still there. Veronica i'm sure is, Teymoor i'm not quite so sure!


Tanya Beckett.

Has she left world?!

Also to add to the list - ex-ITV presenters, Rachel McTavish, Sharon Grey, Lucy Alexander, Faye Barker, Layla Daybelge, Andrew Harvey, there's more!

I used to like her! She presented the weekend evenings with Chris Lowe a few years back. Is she at BBC Wales?

Not a clue - from the looks of it she disappeared about 2005/2006 after doing some weekend evening shifts.

I thought Tanya Beckett was on maternity leave? Or have I got my wires crossed?

Faye Barker is the main presenter of the ITV News at 05:30 and, as previously stated, is currently on maternity leave.

I'm sure I've seen Lucy Alexander presenting daytime TV on BBC One. Doesn't she do one of those Cash In The Attic/Homes Under The Hammer type shows?
