Such a shame that Andrew and Emma was on duty the day she left. I also would have thought they would have got John back down just for today aswell. I thought that was bad.


What is more important? GMTV's news coverage or that it happened to be Penny's last day Rolling Eyes


Sorry it should be news, but Penny wins my vote

I haven't watched GMTV for ages, but it was quite sad seeing her go, I liked Penny. Hopefully she'll be back on the TV soon.


Watch the repeat of Have I Got News For You on Saturday Very Happy

I watched that, Penny didn't seem to be very outspoken like I thought she would. She wasn't quiet though.

says mabye for Friday's - how ironic it is that is one of the reasons Adrian left the BBC - because of losing the Friday show! Laughing

I imagine it's a bit of a non-story tbh.
It also says about Eammon is still in line to also host - although that might not be too bad - as has been said on hear before - Adrian won't be on everyday - so could be split like it is now?

Emma Bunton? Yep, the right choice then. An authoritative, heavyweight journalist who'll put ITV's new-style "less fluff, more news" breakfast programme on the right tracks.

Also ( although this is second hand information from another forum)

Front page of tomorrow's NOTW suggests Christine Bleakley will join ITV in a £6 million deal.

If it is true ( and I hope it is) then it would be a major coup for ITV!

And also although it's the NOTW - they aren't too bad at facts comapred to some other papers ( cough*Daily Star**cough! )

one thing is that I've heard everytime this story comes up is that "Christine - will join ITV in the autumn, after her Beeb contract expires in September"

so it's either say September 1st or the relauch will be later on in the month!

Also If I remeber rightly for Adrian, it was rumoured for ages obvioulsy, before being being printed in the Sunday tabloids that he had been signed up and then on the Monday was officailly annouced! Can anyone else remember? Very Happy

"If she had stayed, she would still have been very rich and she would have been the face of the Olympics." What the hell is that about?

Well it was confirmed by a source in some sunday tabloids, that Eammon Holmes was returning to GMTV as the new presenter, so until it appears in either an ITV press release, bbc.co.uk/news or on MediaGuardian, I would ignore the story completely.
