Still no mention of Becky Jago leaving Newsround

Watched the show yesterday, there was no mention of Becky Jago leaving the show to join Capital FM on Monday.

But I noticed on the Newsround website that they have hired Rachel Gibson to work on the NR updates and Newsround Lite on the CBBC Channel.

So there could change the line-up on the main BBC1 show.

My prediction is:

Newsround, BBC1 weekdays:

Main presenter: Lizzie Greenwood. (Moves from Newsround Lite)

Co-Presenter: Lizo

OB Reporter: Laura Jones.

And the CBBC updates/Newsround Lite

Rachel Gibson and Adam F.

then no meniton of Becky Jago, she's still there now with the other presenters, then she will stay until late 2003, then she will leave the show in December 2003, then she's no meniton coming back, then my date will be annouced she will be leaving on the 29th of December 2004.

then she will be leaving in late 2004, then she will leave on the Review of the Year

Can anyone make sense of that?

What hours is she at capital FM for?

Breakfast with Chris Tarrant, more info at http://www.capitalfm.com/webClient?guid=42031

Becky, Becky, Becky! What are you doing. You have a great image and you spoil it by going on radio! and with Chris Tarrant! Those early starts will ruin your complexion!

I use to remember you as my local weather presenter on Anglia TV, how you would tell me and the viewers about your warm spells and showers afterwards

Must stop drinking, Russ! Oh, and to stop talking to myself!

Becky was presenting today's Newsround despite being on Capital FM as well.

Chris Tarrant does Who Wants to be a Millionaire? and Tarrant on TV, as well as the Capital FM Breakfast show.

If Chris can do all that, then Becky can present Newsround and the Capital Breakfast Show.

I think its pretty obvious that Becky Jago is leaving considering around the same time MediaGuardian.co.uk announced she was off to Capital, an advert went up on the BBC jobs website for a Newsround Presenter.

The only difference is the BBC contracts usually have something about not working for other broadcasters or appearing in advertisments don't they?, of course contracts can always be negotiated.

It all depends on the contract. If it's a "golden handcuffs" contract, then the person cannot work for another broadcaster. I doubt that any kids TV presenters have such a contract.

IMHO Becky Jago has the perfect face for radio.

hehe.. Shame about the voice then isn't it

In the Mail today (or maybe it was the Express, I can't remember!) there was a story on this very subject. According to the report, Becky Jago was going to do both Newsround and Capital for the next two months before she then leaves the BBC to concentrate on her breakfast show.
