I noticed that the studio discussion part of Yorkshire's "Last Orders" programme on Thursday night came from a suspiciously similar set to Central's "The Lobby".

It didn't look like a redressing of the Calendar/Central News set. Is this a studio in Westminster that the regions all share perhaps?

Not sure... I always assumed it was done in Leeds but as it's filmed on a Wednesday/Thursday and has MPs on, you're probably right.

They'll be pleased to know they've found one of their two viewers though Very Happy

I think the part with the MPs on has been in London for a while and this also applys to previous political formats

I haven't seen this series, what with it being on a tad late in the evening

Who presents it thesedays?

I was only flicking through out of boredom - I don't think I saw enough of it to register on a BARB box if I had one!

No Mrs A on Look Leeds tonight, and Jenny Hill is doing an OB from Leeds Crown Court, so that means we get a rare sighting of Charlotte Leeming (I think) on the sofa - with a Christer-style haircut.

Just noticed a grey-style Aston used for the Karen Matthews trial report.

Early morning TURD ALERT.

Look Leeds' very best friend (and Parky) are getting honorary doctorates from the University of Huddersfield today. Mentioned by Clare this morning and no doubt 'Arry and Chris-turd will have full coverage later.

It's actually the Barnsley campus of the University of Huddersfield that are awarding these honorary degrees, for what it's worth.

Aye, Calendar too. Actually Paul Burland did quite a good take-off of Sir Michael!

Don't think she need worry about redundancy. Wasn't it the YTV Xmas party this weekend?
