On last night's Weekend News did anyone spot the jealosy when Katie Derham introduced a report from Mary Nightingale who was on board the last ever Concorde flight!!!


Well earlier in the day Felicity Barr had said she was "very, very jelous of Mary".

Today's main Evening News was a bit of a waste of time. It was simply a 5 minute update, and it didn't even start with the headlines, instead they went straight to a shot of Andrea. There wasn't even a sports section with Felicity Barr, which is unusual for a Saturday.


She's probably having time off after her excellent work yesterday!

No, she had the 2 minute lunchtime update and has done an hour on the News Channel.

Sorry, I can't get the ITVNC at the mo, knowing that then, the fact she wasn't on the Weekend News is strange

I while ago I was going to ask where Ros Childs had got to because she suddenly stopped presenting on the news channel. But it appears she has been seen presenting on BBC World.

People do seem to appear on the ITV News Channel and then disappear, like Judy Aslett. I never did like her though.....

Yeah, but Judy Aslett's on and off, she's probably freelance from some agency. Anyway, I thought Ros Childs was just on maternity leave?

Will News at Ten continue on the ITV News Channel?

Well, there will of course be a bulletin at 10pm on the News Channel, so yes it will. Though it will probably just be a normal News Channel bulletin probably coming from the CSO so that the 10.30pm team can prepare the main studio. Though it would be good if it were called the ITV News At Ten, as viewers may feel it is more familier.

Also, as Felicity was on yesterday but didn't have her usual ITV1 sports update, her and John Suchet have tonight's Evening News.

It would be quite good if the 10pm bulletin on the NC could be called News at Ten, that way the legacy of News at Ten would live on. News 24 call their 9pm bulletin the Nine o'Clock News, thus, the legacy of the Nine o'Clock news lives on.

I think that was Steve Scott's first time presenting on ITV1 earlier today wasn't it? He's not bad at all, does anyone know why he left Five?

Hmmmm, he's okay, better than some of the people that appear on the News Channel, though he isn't one of my personal favourites. It was good when he was anchoring with Felicity and he made a joke about her weight and she started poking him with her pen.
