ONE WOULD THINK SO. IT CERTAINLY DOES LOOK RUBBISH AT THE MOMENT. MAYBE YOU COULD EMAIL THEM AND SHOUT AT THEM.

INDEED. WHEN I LOOKED AT THE TITLE OF THIS THREAD I THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT THE MIKE REID CHILDREN'S GAME SHOW, BUT OF COURSE THAT WAS "RUNAROUND", WASN'T IT?

OH WELL.

YOU MAKE AN INTRESTING POINT, AS ALL OF THE OTHER GRANADA REGIONS HAVE HAD REVAMPS TO THEIR NEWS PROGRAMMES SINCE 2002, BUT DON'T FORGET THAT LOOKAROUND HAD THE SAME TITLES FOR 8 YEARS, SO THEY MIGHT DO THAT AGAIN, BUT HOPEFULLY THEY SHOULD REBRAND QUICKER.

PLEASE TOO TAKE CAPS LOCK OFF, ok? You never know with all this shouting Granada can probably hear us all.

Lee McKenzie is still with Border. She has been presenting the sport up until last week. She was covering for Jonathan Willoughby who was off sick, but he arrived back this week. I think she must be on the production side as she has not been reporting.

Oh fab i'm glad she is still there i like her but Johnathon is so wimpy !!!!.me thinks they need a new set and new presenters i just don't watch it anymore it's so dated .The shorter bulletins are worse Susannah B just stumbles all over the place.

I would like to see a backdrop of their newsroom in the studio, but their newsroom is probably not very modern looking, or big, so it probably wouldn't work. Maybe some live shots of towns around the region eg.

Carlisle
Dumfries
Douglas etc.

Then again Border probably cannot afford to set up equipment to do this.
