Nothing changes on ITV News London. When Nina was the main presenter, you'd see more of the stand-ins than her.
Duncan surely is the third stand-in as he does the same role Lucrezia Millarini used to do in the summer.
I think Faye Barker is down to present GMB local bulletins which is the same shift where they then report on the Lunchtime News and one Friday in two on London lates.
Ria Chatterjee has been used to cover London lates at least once a fortnight, while it seems Hannah Emerson Thomas (the London editor) prefers using freelancers on the late slot or Duncan.

I thought Paul Greene did the morning bulletins? And lates are often done by Anna-Maria Ashe, are they not? And I'm sure Ken Andrew filled in on breakfast at least once over the past fortnight...
I jest, of course. Ah, those were the days...
On a completely different note, if anyone ever wondered what Sir Trev might have looked like on the current set, wonder no more:

EDIT: Just found these excellent (IMO) recreations/remixes of the ITV News themes (1999 and 2013) on YouTube. Wonder if the guy posts here...

Lucrezia Millerini is live in Plymouth, anchoring the ITV Evening News.
I’m I the only one who thinks that rebel sound news titles sequence isn’t half bad?

I quite like them, although not so sure on the 2016 NaT headline bed, I think because I'm imagining Tom Bradby talking over it and I just can't see it.
Couldn’t mention it yesterday but Gamal Fahnbulleh presented the ITV Weekend News on Sunday

Has Gamal presented the national news before?
No, I think Sunday was the first that Gamal has hosted the national news.
I didn’t see the ITV National News on Sunday but very pleased to hear Gamal has presented it.
Gamal has been a great asset to Granada Reports since he joined in January and appears to have settled in really well.

Good to hear, though he's one of the very few black faces on regional tv news - be it ITV or BBC - outside of London.
It's hard to believe that the current ITV News theme was composed in 2000.
Very ahead of its time.

Err, it wasn’t… the current theme was composed in 2012.

Actually, you're incorrect. A quick search of APM ITV News theme brings up a website that has the date listed.
The ITV News theme from 2013 starts with number 201.

We're splitting hairs here, but if we
really want to be pedantic, the current package was introduced in January 2013. There would have been, I imagine, several versions of the theme music written and tested, plus it would have to have been approved by the people in charge at ITN/ITV, then they would have needed time to rehearse on the new set/with the new intro/music/graphics. In that respect I think 2012 would be correct.
