The fact he was in Kos for 3 weeks has resulted in him being absent from the studio more than usual as well

With that in mind Christine and Duncan have not been together for most of the autumn.

No complaints from me I have always preferred Gaynor and John.

IMO Duncan seems to come across better when he is alongside Christine only, he can be funny at times too, something that Christine needs to work on, both John & Gaynor are great IMO

If it's of any interest to anyone, the Y&L Look North will be live streaming what happens behind the scenes throughout the day on their Facebook page tomorrow.

I didn't see this coming - a couple of years after shutting their operation at the Media museum, the BBC has a new district office for Bradford based at the University.

I suspect the fact that the new Radio Leeds Managing Editor used to be a presenter and reporter based at the original Bradford studio in City Hall may have been a driver for this changing.

It also potentially clears up the mystery of where a Danny Savage piece to camera in a package was done, filmed in a newsroom with BBC signs on a blue wall.

I don't know who was doing the timings on Look North tonight, but at the end they crashed out from Owain doing the local weather straight into the start of the national weather. Nothing notable went wrong earlier in the bulletin.

Duncan was in London with the Needham family. Did anyone else notice David Hirst on the OB said ''Thank you Christine'' rather than Sally.

Yes I noticed , on the Sky EPG, It was scheduled as Gaynor & Duncan hosting,

Maybe David just had a slip of the tongue as they call it.

Maybe Gaynor was on a well deserved day off as she didn't cover GMB this morning.

I wonder how much of a Christmas special we will see next Friday. Normally a brass band in the YTV garden.

The Sky EPG often seems to state that Gaynor & Duncan are hosting, on seemingly random days and sometimes when either of them aren't presenting. Oddly it never mentions Christine & Duncan in the description ever, if not Gaynor & Duncan it is just a generic description.

When Claire Montgomery guest hosted it stated Duncan Wood & Claire Montgomery with the latest news & weather from the calendar region.
