This young lady might be familiar to someone here:

My spies tell me that this young lady 'voxee' was a Lincoln Univeristy journo type, now reportedly working as trainee broadcast journalist at LNH.

She was interviewed in what was clearly Queen's Gardens, all of.. ooo... three yards from the front door of Queenyfit Court.

Did they give a name? I was a Lincoln Uni Journalism student but don't recognise the face.

Must be struggling for stories on this morning's bulletins. An item about someone complaining that the elderly people crossing the road sign was not PC, and an item on otters "More about the otters later" Laughing


Struggled to fill half an hour this evening too. Clearly no actual news in East Yorkshire or Lincolnshire today... Rolling Eyes It's just not good enough, is it?

haha, that's true. I got the impression that His Levyness wasn't expecting the telephone poll to go the way it did tonight Laughing

I thought that too. Shame he chose the signs story to read emails out about... "John from Lincoln" was obviously having "political correctness gone mad" withdrawals.

All that time to fill tonight called for an abundance of "thanks very much indeed" moments. He even gave one to Loveday Kitto.

Rolling Eyes *avoids the obvious quip* Razz hehe

Tonight's bulletin was better - not for content, but Hannah was presenting it Very Happy

You can tell they are really are clutching at straws for news stories with that one about some random woman complaining about the elderly people crossing sign on every time. Most people treat it as a complete joke - possibly only worthy of a mention in the local rag. Yet Look North ULL make it into a major issue and ask people in the street (albeit just in Beverley and only old people, so no bias at all Wink ) for their opinion and a local MP.

It sounds like Look North Hull is next to Channel Report when it comes to trivial news stories

Whilst the investigation continues into the mysterious blond seen sitting in Queenies gardens Silent ,

Peeta is looking for someone to become a trainee reporter for Look Levy.

You have to be aged between 11 & 16 - (poor kid will have nightmares for years to come) Speak with an ULL accent OOOh NOOOH and be capable of inventing & turning absolute rubbish into serious news stories. The Media students will be queuing up Wink

The difference being that the Channel Islands' geography and population are so small that it's not suprising that there's only really "trivial" news stories.

But Look Levy's coverage area is geographically a fair old size, so what's their excuse? Confused
