Take a look at this from digitalspy.co.uk http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds11814.html

It says that danniella westbrook is joining the loose women team (not that important, but...) Later This Year!

This has confused me. As Trisha is going to be going, This morning will be 2 hours, the news wont move, and des & mel will still be there.

So the only place I can think is that they are going to be putting them on in the 2pm slot. What a great line up. I like to watch loose women (dont know why), and its always been a great fill in when programmes like des & mel and this morning arent around. But to have this morning, nicholas owen and the news, des & mel AND Loose women is a cracking line!

Anyone know if there is any truth in this?

Yes I do need help! Its only because I have nothing to do in the day! I work at night! Daytime's like my evening!

The article says that Danniella Westbrook will be on two times a week, not the show, I had to re read it myself!

Daniella's on it twice a week, but as they rotate hosts, it'll probably be on five days a week.

It could air at 2pm or 5pm I suppose, but Des & Mel is only contracted for 70 episodes this time IIRC, so maybe they'll do half now and half next year, leaving a couple of months free at 1pm.

Well if D&M are contracted for 70 episodes that's enough to take them up to the first Friday in December if I worked it out right since we don't have any public holidays now until Christmas. I wonder if LW would go in the 1pm slot up to Christmas?

So you want to return to the schedule of 5-10 yrs ago. ITV1 has moved on and most of the changes introduced are for the better, although some like you don't approve.

Well believe it or not Jez, it's presented exclusively by women so of course it's going to be sexist. Rolling Eyes

Indeed, Bing & Bong are not ready for retirement yet, they still have plenty of Tiny Planets to visit. And I need my little sing song at 3.20pm !!

Wouldn't it be good if we could all go out to space on our sofas? Could take certain posters out (not necessarily Jez) to the tiny planet of whatever and leave them there Very Happy

Current CiTV vote because I want to share the current vote result:

Favourite one out of Bing & Bong:

Bing (the big one) 26%
Bong (the small one) 73%

Says it all really. These kiddies know the right option when they see it. Wink

Um, anyway, aren't we going off on a tangent now?

Bong is the cutest. Anyway, i was about to say about 3:30, even though he's taken it to 5:10, it would be nice if it could still begin at 3:15.

I hope your not being serious about your fix of bing & bong at 3:20, as it starts at 3:15! Though engie benjy has a good theme tune and the voices of ant mcpartlin, declan donnelly and les dennis!
