The Look North weather team is all off this week. Paul is on holiday so Lisa moved up to do his shift but as you could tell on Monday's Hull Look North she's ill

This means we've got Liam Dutton doing the weather at teatime and presumably a London recording at Breakfast?

Someone let me know when Peter's too ill to come into work and someone else presents the programme. That'll be the day...

ill? don't be so silly! I am sure Peter makes sure he is first in line before all the other old people, to get his flu jab!

My comments weren't exactly supposed to be serious. Very Happy Anyway, I still think Look North Hull is a superb programme to watch! Good job I have digital satellite! Very Happy

Surely you have failed to realise the meaning of "regional" news.

Peter's Look Hull features nothing about the region - just Hull....and I won't even start on the 'news' part.

That and the fact you're not even in the region. Are you a bit simple?

I think it's been Liam on breakfast as well for the last few days.

Out of interest, does anyone know why Look North is the only regional news programme to have its own breakfast forecaster when every other region gets its forecast from London?

I don't think it is any more, I think South Today has its own forecaster and possibly another region.
