Whats happened to Tayna James off Channel 5 then?


Last seen on ITV's "It shouldn't happen to a Weather Forecaster" which also featured a behind the scenes visit with Chrissie Reidy on ITV Weather, from the now old London Tonight studio.

what about Look North Leeds/Hull's other weather forecaster? Given a choice between Lisa Gallagher and that Hudson bloke there's no contest

Just looked at Current Buns site and...my god, Jo Blythe is an absolute stunner. I wish she presented Meridian instead of Gemma Humphries.

Be fair, Gemma is nice in her own way as well! I live in London and we get the national presenters. I would love to have our own regional presenter, Sara Thornton defientely would be a first choice!

My fave weather presenter is Emma Jesson, who does the weather on ITV Wales during the weekends mainly. She is more famous for Central Weather though but I dont get to see her on there, just ITV Wales/West. I like the way she says "byebye" at the end! Laughing

When I visited the south of England I quite liked Gemma Humphries on Meridian

I quite like Chrissy on the national ITV weather, although Sian is my fave (not just cos she is Welsh and a distant relation of mine)

Well I tell you what, can you get on the phone to her and ask her when she's going to stop flogging furniture on HTV, it's been doing my head in for years. Looking all pleased with herself there.

Then she launches her own range of Valentines day cards with her peculiar MP boyfriend -- it's just so unlikely.

Oh favourite weather people -- Alex Deakin, Femi Oke, Carol Kirkwood and that bloke on BBC Wales [I forget his name].

I'll try my best, although I quite like Sian on those ads, she has done well for herself, I wont here a bad word against her. Laughing

I forgot to mention Joanna Rice (aka the weather in leather), she's one of my fave's too - HTV West's regular weather girl at one time, however now she is on Sky I think. She does occasionally turn up on ITV Wales weather at the weekends but its mainly Emma Jesson these days. Does anyone know if she has turned up on Central recently?
