So you get the prized opportunity to present your pick of the BBC or ITV regional news programmes. Which one would you present, and who with?

I'd like to present Wales Today. Its certainly one of the best regional news programmes, and its style and content is just about perfect.

Its not often I praise the Beeb, but credit where its due!

My top 3 -

1 - 'Across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, this is BBC1 with Look North, presented by Katherine Birkett and Peter Levy'

2 - 'This is BBC1. Now, Midlands Today presented by Katherine Birkett and Nick Owen'

3 - Across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, this is BBC1 with Look North, presented by Katherine Birkett and Harry Gration'

Yeah I know i'm not from the UK... BUT:

1. 'Hello, you're watching BBC One Northern Ireland. This is Newsline with Emmanuel Granado and Karen Patterson...'

2. 'Now on BBC One... Northwest Tonight... with Emmanuel Granado...'

3. 'Now Midlands Today with Suzanne Verdee and Emmanuel Granado...'

4. 'This is BBC One Southwest. And now Spotlight, with Teresa Driscoll and Emmanuel Granado.'

Very Happy
