On here? Silly man - every thread has to end in a fight.

Wales Today is an extremely good programme, and very well made. I would agree with Jamez, it is the best regional news programme. Thankfully it has truly grasped 16:9 and it is well made. Their coverage is very good, much better than HTV News.

Jamie is an excellent newsreader and also Derek with the weather. What more could you want? Wink Nice idea to use the big screen as well.

I'm Welsh and I like English people (usually better than Welsh people!) but I'm not getting involved in this petty debate.

It's not bad, but as you may know, I'm a Lucy Cohen fan, so i watch HTV News.

People slag off HTV West's news, and quite rightly, but I think that HTV (Wales) News is the best! Anyone got a cap of HTV Wales News?

I haven't seen HTV News for months, and I tuned in last week and noticed how much Lucy's voice has changed - definate elecution there! Wink

Its amazing how many people actually do have voice coaching! (me is guilty as charged m'lud)

We also get Wales Today from across the water and it's FAR preferable to Points West.

WT seem cover the WHOLE of their country with REAL news stories, rather than PW which is all 'another frog born in pond' rubbish and ONLY if it happens within walking distance of the Bristol studio.  


A frog born in a pond without going through the spawn/tadpole stage? Now that is news. And it would be so well covered in the land of BBC Natural History and Granada Wild.
