Look North crossed straight over to Stockton after the news, are other egions doing this or have they gone to a break?

EDIT: They've now gone to the Weather, and they''ve said they'll see us next year so I presume that was the last opt.

One year they had a girl who won a prize to be a presenter for the night and she was only there for about 2 hours

Another of my dislikes in life - people who never say what they mean, giving false impressions of what to expect when something smaller than the initial description or promise follows on......

Yes, as certain as the sun will set, the opt-outs will continue! (Till about Midnight anyway)

Anyone else finding this painful to watch? Well, the Terry and Gaby parts anyway. I only watch to see the sketches.
Well they always are really arn't they but somehow they get away with it.

Didn't Terry used to get to sit down at one time but this year he's constantly on his feet, to change it he'll have to talk to the old D.G..!

Looks like I was talking crap above... the ticker isn't appearing on the Leeds feed on DSat, presumably the aspect ration switching issue comes into it as well, ie to soft opt would mean it would jump from 16:9 to 14:9 and be very noticeable I'd assume

Well lets hope that all those fundraisers that have rung the regions up to tell them about their event and are watching out for their mention are watching on analogue or else they'll be very disapointed!. Leeds are still scrolling them at every interval by the way, and they are very fast!

omg Fiona Bruce and Natasha Kaplinsky can sing

Turnbull and Williams
It was a fantastic performance! It was great to see Moira out from behind her desk, and what a singing voice! Yes, Fiona and Natasha can sing, so can Anna indeed - didn't Natasha look good?!

And as for the guys, well there was some severe hip gyrating from Andrew and Bill there, while Jeremy always seems to be the one who almost gets to take his clothes off! Good to see Mr Buerk keeping up with the pace there as well!

Maybe the newsreaders should release a pop single!

No more BBC Wales opt-outs!

Just their ticker now. Until they switch to the network feed anyway, they did so at about 12:30am last year Confused
