YIKES! TOM SCHAFERNAKER'S BACK!! TAKE COVER!!!!!!!!!


Ooo, good -- can you keep him this time? The man gets everywhere, no region is sacred. He's a weather whore.

Did you see the Hull banter as well?

I did - and it further cements my opinion that Peter and Paul are the best in the business!!

Tom maybe good - but I'm sorry...no-one beats, the one, the only:

TREVOR APPLETON

The man and his still are famous. The old weather graphics (cream and red with the day in top left hand corner) on East Midlands Today had to be moved over to the right so that Trevor's head didn't get in their way!!

The man is amazing! And I've heard Kat rather likes him too.

Well we haven't had neither Tom or Trevor in the Look North region for ages, I'm sure Paul Hudson used to take a lot more holidays at one time, he used to be off every few months, we even had Elizabeth Saary at one time

Honestly Katherine, the only crime that Trevor is guilty of is not being Paul Hudson. You really need to be more tolerant of the elderly, and their stools.

They may be co-sited, but that's not to say the transmission strength is the same - hence slightly dodgy ITV pictures when you can get BBC1 fine (wild generalisation, but you get the idea)


The transmission strength is normally the same, but that's not to say that some frequencies are less interference free!


Well, no - not really. You're right to say it comes down to a lot of factors, including cross-interference. I was quite general to start with, on my last comment ... but it does come down to a number of factors. If I weren't half-drunk, I'd go into it all :-p

Oh, I always thought the slightly dodgy ITV pictures in this part of the world were down to the local contractor, Chris!


If they will cut their packages on VHS ...

Trevor's crime is possession of excessive dullness. And I am as tolerant as possible of an elderly person's stools.

Trevor is fabulous. There is never a dull moment when Trevor is around. He once pointed out there was a big fete thing not far from where I am on East Midlands Today before he got on with the weather. That makes him very fab in my opinion.

Trevor should have the gig of Hull weather without a doubt...although I don't think he'll fit in that broom cupboard - so it'll have to wait until they move.

I'm sure Anne drinks something before she sits down in that chair but they really are a fabulous pairing.


I'm sure that she forgets there's an audience the other side of the camera - wait until she starts groping Dom's knee...

Yes, today is now what we all know as Kay Day - as fans all over the UK and in parts of Europe have witnessed the spectacular event that is Kay.

I'm afraid it wasn't - the Conditional Access is still in place, so it's only Kay Day for England. Everyone else still has to wait...
