Charlotte Leeming has been on lates for at least part of this week... although why she couldn't share the sofa with Christa is another question entirely


I don't see why she couldn't. On EMT we've had Jo Healey present with both Anne Davies and Lukwesa Burak in the last couple of years.

Well Cathy Killick did the Lunchtime News so she could have co-presented with Christa. Although unusual, Calendar sometimes go with the same sex pairings (although Duncan and Jon Hill always looks odd)

It seems since Peter Levy left they've a shortage of male presenters. Maybe it should have been Christa and Tom Ingall?

Shortage of presenters full stop since Peter Levy left - how do you replace a workaholic?

Does that mean there are three different sets of sofas - red, grey and purple - or is it just a lighting technique?

Once analogue television ceases to exist, in a few years time, I wonder what will happen to The Super League Show?

There is just BBC Two "England" on digital telly, rather than English Regions (certainly true on Sky - Also true on any/all other digital platforms???)

I guess that Coutryfile would have to move to BBC Two, so that The Super League Show/Wildlife On Two* [*or whatever the programme for the non-North Of England parts of the UK is] can be on BBC One instead.

I assume you mean BBC2 "England" - there are BBC1 regions on all digital platforms...but BBC2 only operates with Nations. It was the main reason the local politics and documentary programmes (Midland Report, Close Up North, etc) - now Inside Out of course were moved over to BBC1. (Though a lot was said about more exposure and making the programmes more mainstream at the time.)

I'm sure the Super League show will be able to find a suitable opt on what is always a very boring BBC1 Sunday schedule wen they're forced to make the move.

Or better still put the BBC2 English regions on digital.

I think there might actually be 3 sets of sofas. if you look closely each sofa has a slightly different shape and arrangement.

I reckon they are different sofas. You wouldn't get slip covers to look that neat.
