shes great on xchange. sarra was great on kids tv here in wales before moving to The Saturday Show Extra.
I personally think she was superb when she stood in for Fearne aswell.
Hopefully we will see more of Sarra. even if its on adult bilge like Dial a Date.
Shame Danielle Nicholls never did much after CITV. There was Night Fever, but not much after that.
she was lovely to watch back around 98/99. when she had short hair and wasnt fat

Please tell me you don't mean that - how'd you work the one out??
Tony Craig.
And to be fair, Ortis' talent does not lie in live television.
I don't want to comment on individual presenters. That's why I hadn't picked up on THAT original point.

Holly is excellent, don't know why they used on XChange. XChange is for the presenters that can't present.

Er yes I see...
So you only wanted to pick out those individuals then? I'll presume you don't rate the rest.

In recent months Xchange has taken on several new presenters (Ortis, Steve Wilson and Sarra Elgan-Rees), I think you'll find that the quality has improved a lot.

If you notice I was pointing them out as NEW presenters and didn't comment on their ability.
They have certainly helped to make a difference, but the main thing is the simple fact that there's now more rehearsal time. This has ironed out a lot of the apparent chaos seen on screens when Xchange first started.

Personally I think Andrew on CBBC on One is quite good
I just wonder what he actually offers. Does he adlib well? No. Is he funny? No. Is he being natural? No. At least with other presenters like Michael, Stephen, Angellica, Fearne, Jake and Simon, they have that something special!
Anyway, changing the subject for a moment, why haven't they managed to come up with a name for this new saturday morning show? It's going to be on in two months!!
I completely agree with you on Andrew. The day he actually presents a link without a) laughing endlessly and not doing his job b) smiling like an idiot and so on will be a miracle. Why not put someone like Barney on who is actually funny.
Please tell me exactly HOW the content of the show is "crap"?
Have you seen the show recently, a lot of changes (for the better) have been made since a new Editor/Exec Producer came in March.
The show is has very strong content and I absolutely anyone who thinks it isn't can't have seen the show recnetly. The production team work so hard, making ten shows a week at very fast turn-around - the quality is very high.
I agree with you James. X-change has really improved (I like the 5:30 show more than the 7:30 though). Steve Wilson is a fantastic presenter.
Chris Bellinger is a god when it comes to kids TV. People say all the time that Going Live and L&K were the best saturday morning shows. Maybe they should think more about getting people like Chris to do these shows (again) instead of making sure Stephen Mulhern looks good on camera and poaching Holly Willoughby. Why try to get all established presenters anyway? If I remember rightly, Emma Forbes and Jamie Theakston were new to the job when they started saturday mornings.
It's generally the writing team and production that put more into the show than the presenters.
