Paul was doing his serious 'science bit' and Christa was yawning and talking over the top of it. I know it's all part of the banter but Paul looked slightly annoyed


What a rude old trout.

I've said it before, but Look North is a million times better when it's not Christa presenting!

Jenny, Tanya or Amanda are all better. But surveys must show that people like Christa - who on earth are they asking though.

Christa, in a revolving door with a succession of party wigs.

I have to say that I'm starting to form the same opinion of Harry, as much as he is a legend. It's even better with Ian and Jenny.

Oh come on Jenny is awful! Ian and Christa together are really good though - he just loves it with her plugging it on his late bulletins when hes with her. Giggling away together!

I disagree, Ian is already on practically every bulletin, so I prefer when Harry is hosting the main programme

I can't see the line up changing for many years, it's not as if there are many other opportunities elsewhere in regional news thesedays

Karen Petch signed off for the last time on last night's Calendar News, saying she is leaving YTV after many years and thanking everyone for watching

That's really sad news - Karen has been a YTV stalwart and I must say I always enjoyed her style. Karen was presenting the first ever Calendar bulletin I saw.

Yes shame to see Karen go - was a stalwart of the Calendar East daytime bulletins in the 90's.

Agreed - her style was simple but warming.

Good luck to her wherever and whatever she is doing.

Over on the other side - has Hannah Moffatt left Look North Y&L yet?

Didn't know Hannah was even leaving - whys this?

I presume then that she's got the recently advertised presenter job at BBC Channel Islands.
