I wonder what happened to people like Liz Pike and Peter Coe. They could be seen frequently during the flag era.

Liz Pike works for BBC News 24 now, and Peter Coe has left the BBC.

Ah! has he! thats a shame! Do you know what he is doing nowadays?

No, but I assumed he has left because we haven't seen him on our screens for more than half a year - either he's working for another News Channel like Alastair Yates did - or he's left. I haven't seen him at all on World or News 24.

No offence, but all you seem to do is request!

You want someone to go to the trouble of finding a blank video tape, watching BBC News 24 for an hour (therefore not able to watch another digital channel) and then pay for packaging to America, at no cost to you?

I think you are asking for the impossible here, you could at least offer to pay for the video tape and postage.

Why exactly do you want the video?

I am having the suspicion that this guy is a fool! .BTW, there are websites that have bits of BBC News 24 bulletins available.....Probably this guy is a close relative of that annoying Mark DC , who seems so obsessed about BBC world here in the states....

Probably Jon Sopel, looking at the time Martin posted that.

Well, not really, the only decent News 24 pairing is Chris Eakin & Maxine Mawhinney - with perhaps Chris Lowe & Anna Jones. Although Mike & Phillipa do seem to be united about how the Marketboard has broken..yet again. Terribly unreliable hardware!
