Sure Hull have the proper BBC Sport graphics


TV Live shows all three look Norths with BBC Sport style graphics, so why there's been a change is a mystery...

Apparantly there has been an Olympian from Hull who won a gold medal. Not that Look Hull have covered it much over the last few days/weeks/months....

He's done it a few times before - keying his hair is a particular problem...

It just shows that once you can escape the dead end clutches of BBC Y&L you can make a go of it at the Beeb.

On the news channel on Saturday up popped 'Kevin Keane' one time tech op/video journalist etc etc at Radio Bumbleside and Look Levy. Having escaped their parochial clutches he appeared as 'Scotland Corresspondant' on BBC News Channel looking and sounding very polished and professional. Since all you learn in ULL is how to report stories of tulips and escaped budgies it shows that with proper journalistic training local talent can excel.

Good luck Kevin.

I'm more surprised that Look Leeds haven't ditched both Christa and Harry and just employed Dickie Bird and some bird from Corrie who happened to have been born in Leeds to sit there for half an hour going on about cricket and soap operas. It's what the public want!

Its all happening in ULL this week. Mr Levy has given an interview to the local posh magazine (the one which snooty folk have sat on their coffee tables) about "glamour, insomnia and living life in the goldfish bowl" !

He states... "I fall asleep fine, but then 45 minutes later, I'm wide awake again. I've tried everything.",

Perhaps he should try watching Look North on the iplayer Razz

Think it was Siobhan Robbins last day on Look North - going on attachment to the News Channel.


Spotted on the NC with lives and a package for BBC London News from London Zoo today.

I'm surprised they haven't given him a variety show (for the Humberside and Lincolnshire region natch) akin to the one they gave Trevor Baker down in Southernland all those years ago...

Paul Hudson's back, it seems like he's been off for ages. Someone called Elizabeth Austen did the weather yesterday, presumably from London.

They are obviously a bit short staffed at the moment on Look North as Christa Ackroyd is doing the Bank Holiday Monday bulletins.
