A rather big rumour is going round at the moment, consisting of the departure of Huw Edwards, Dermot taking over the 10 and Simon whats his name (natashas sky ex-partner) taking over breakfast. Baring in mind it was in a **nameless** tabaloid, im not too sure.

Sounds a tad fishy to me too - I can't see Huw leaving the 10 any time soon. I like the idea though - I've never liked Dermot at Breakfast, and think his talents would be far better suited to the late night bulletin.
I think Simon, Bill, Natasha and Sian should do Breakfast on a kind of rota system, in the way we saw in the days of Andrew Harvey and Justin Webb - no fixed days, but they could do different days with different partners, to mix things up a bit. I thought it was a little strange when the BBC decided to bring Simon to Breakfast - a third presenter seems a little unnecessary to be honest, and I suspected that either Dermot or Bill might be being moved/sacked.

Huw cant leave! He suits the ten - unless its just I've become used to him saying 'tonight we will be analysing....' after the main headline every weekday. Dermot would definately suit a main bulletin rather than breakfast and with any luck Bill will be moved to a main bulletin when Simon moves to breakfast...

By the way, is there a copy of the article from which this "rumour" emerged anywhere?
RE
If Dermot went back to ITV and John Suchet / Martin Stanford / Chris Roberts from Sky came to the BBC, I'd be even more happier!

Probably not - Huw's away, Fiona can't do it nor could Michael or Peter. Bill was available to do the Six, so they got George in to do the Ten. Simple.

George is doing tonight's Ten. Could anything be read into this...

By my previous post I meant whether the rumours that Huw had/is going to leave the BBC are true.
