I'll let you into a secret!

A star Presenter on News24 reads this forum before going on air.
They also reads it while on air!

You'd be very surprised just who appears on here as 'guest'

Oooh intriguing. Is it Peter Dobbie ?

Anyway, to whoever it is, hi, thanks for stopping by, and I think you and your colleagues are fantastic on News 24. You do an excellent job.

Well I never say anything nasty about presenters on News24 - what there to be nasty about? They only sit at a desk for a few hours reading scrolling words off a camera lens - a fool could do it! (Thats why my application form is on its way to the big cheese at Beeb news! )

Can you give us a clue? Male or Female?

Ah, but could a fool still look cool, calm & collected with no Autocue, no scripts, no computer to read from, someone yelling in their ear, and still make sense?

Don't answer that one!

Don't be so creul! I hope you aren't pulling our legs - I mean how do you know a News24presenter visits this forum?

You say star presenter, i.e. main presenter? If its a male, then it could be Gavin Esler or Chris Lowe, and a female I'm not sure, perhaps Maxine Mawhinney or Jane Hill?

He's male.
Maybe they'd like to join when they log onto this site & tell us themselves!

He works at the BBC.

I think it could be Peter, he would have time to read whilst World Business Report is on air.

Now what does that mean?

Well here's the list of males:

Peter Coe
Philip Hayton
Bill Turnbull
Matthew Amroliwala
Ben Geoghegan
Chris Lowe
Chris Eakin
Peter Dobbie
Gavin Esler
Fergus Nicoll

anymore? Now, he must be in the list above.
