Those with very long and indsicriminate memories may recall that I, Jennifer Turner, talentspotter, predicted big things for one Thalia Pellegrini back in December 2001. In fact, I think what I said was that she would be a household name within five years.
This now looks rather shaky. 22 months later, and she has progressed only to the heights of presenting Newsround at the weekends on the CBBC Channel. Which may be a step up from reporting for "Local Life" on the NTL local channel, but it's not much of a step, really.
Ah well, she's probably gone all rubbish now that she's working for the Corporation anyway.
(Incidentally, great breakdown on Newsround yesterday, complete with VT rewinding on air and a good long shot of Ellie just standing in the studio, giving the viewers headaches with her gaudy jumper.)
