Also note that local 020 numbers also start with a 3.

There are some that start with a 0 too. With those the 020 is always needed so there are used for numbers that are redirected from others such as 0845 and not normally manually dialled.


Seeing 0207 or 0208 annoys me too. It didn't help that when the numbers starting 3 were introduced, it was all over the news as a new dialling code for London, confusing people even more


Not helped by news articles like https://www.standard.co.uk/news/0203-to-be-third-telephone-code-7233279.html

I seem to remember another article which implied that ALL London numbers were changing AGAIN...

It will have been on 20 April. But don't forget it was replaced by Vanessa and then Trisha. Kyle only launched in 2005.

Had a proper look at the audience area. Today they seated 15, which includes Storm Huntley. Seems they could get it up to 16 or 17 i if required on that box.

Private Eye had reported that there had been tensions between Matthew and ITN over the direction of the show and that he'd been suspended from one edition of the show.

I wonder if this indicates that we'll see a replacement show from ITN, done with either a brand new host or maybe with a team of hosts.

I thought the team of hosts worked well recently. I won't be surprised if we see the likes of Ayesha Hazarika and Claudia-Liza Armah on rotation again.
