The Yorkshire and Lincolnshire Thread

It was announced on Look North tonight that Nicola Rees is now pregnant.

There's going to be no one left at this rate!

I take it no update on the B&B Manager?

No.

In other news Frazer Maude was back doing Calendar News yesterday, I haven't seen him do Calendar for ages now, so presumably a bit of rare freelancing.

Was he reporting or presenting Andrew?

Presenting.

Apparently weather presenter Jennifer Bartram has joined the Leeds weather hub team. possibly ready to cover Lisa's maternity/keeley's increased news duties/general summer holidays etc.

It's official: Christa has left the BBC.

The Facebook and Twitter avatars have been updated - now showing Harry and Nicola.

"Sacked for breach of contract" is how Len Tingle has just described it on BBC Radio Leeds

I wonder if Made in Leeds will try and acquire Christa's services? Would be a coup for the local channel at launch.

Good to see a proper ident in front of Look North. No idea who the announcer was.

Indeed, there should be on every night!

A damning report about Christa on Look North, I didn't see how they lead into it though.

A bit of a farce how a BBC report about a BBC person resulted in 'nobody from the BBC being available for interview' though.
