Any Real files for these.....

You listen to 5Live? Hahaha!

The BBC is professional not boring. Sky News belongs to an old Ozzy guy who owns a load of newspapers, and hundreds of TV Channels!!

Incidentally, SkyNews can you remember the original presenting couples?
I know the original anchors....

Michael Wilson
Penny Smith
Francis Wilson
Tania Bryer
Chris Mann
Stefanie Callister
Stephen Cole
Kay Burley
David Glencorse
Linda Duberly
Bob Friend
Vivien Creegor
Chris Morris
Selena Scott
Scott Chisholm

But who was paired up with who?

Oh big deal!
A guy who has trashed about 4 Tv stations is now in charge of the BBC!!
At least Murdoch has had the brains to keep his stations going!

The BBC is boring in comparison to Sky News, I think most people would agree with me there.
Sky is also professional, and suffers from a lot less mistakes than News24, so there.

And why is it funny that I listen to FiveLive?

'Celebrity newshounds Stefanie Callister and Chris Mann have made the news with the birth of their baby girl'

Former Sky TV newsreader Stefanie Callister is making a small screen comeback after taking a break of nearly three years to be with her three small children. Stefanie, 38, has started reading GMTV's Sunday morning news and plans no more wild Saturday nights out. 'The car collects me at 4.30am,' explains Stefanie, who met husband Chris Mann when they co-hosted the Sky News Live at Five programme.
'I expect to be in bed by nine on Saturday. I had two-and- a-half years off after my youngest daughter, Katya, was born so it was daunting to be back. but every TV studio is set out the same way.
It's like getting back into the saddle.'

Isn't the internet a wonderful thing.

Who's Frank Gari???

Frank Gari's an American composer. He has composed many news themes, of course with 'Great News' being one of them. (I like that theme!) You can find more information at TV News Themes:
