Apparently Anne Diamond mentioned that she's on for eight weeks doing weekend breakfast, so it looks like a permanent replacement will be on from March.

Wootton seemed keen for her to stay.
I hope she does stay. She’s another very good appointment. Obviously like several recently it is ticking nostalgia boxes but I’m ok with that.

If its political based then Michael Portillo would be ideal
If they were fully going for a radio audience, they'd be extending Brazier to 7pm and moving Michelle Dewberry to a weekend slot, but as we all know by now, the channel is based on ideology rather than talent, which is why certain presenters in daytime are there for their viewpoint rather than being able to string a sentence on tv.
The full length ‘GB News’ logo used during the bulletins has changed using the the lower case ‘ews’ that was featured on some advertising a few weeks back. It still looks pretty awkward.
The People’s Question Time could be the apex of where the new radio focus meets the TV channel: are we about to see a televised phone-in??!
I see they’ve gone to lowercase on the “News” looks a disgrace. Just says “ews” to me

What even odder is they went for a logo in the first place, that didn’t display the brand name in full. I think just referring to it as GBN, whilst a bit less distinctive would sound more credible.

It's nothing new. Jeremy Vine (nee The Wright Stuff) have been doing phone-ins for years.

Dewbs & Co apparently rates well.

I think if it’s political they should aim for someone who has been in politics… Robert Kilroy-Silk? ?
I suspect though we are likely to see someone such as Tom Harwood or Nana Akua being shunted about.
It's funny enough that if you Google that show's name,
here's what comes up...
Anyway, if they don't mention any permanent host from the outset, probably there won't be any. Instead we'll likely get a rotation of hosts who happen to be familiar with whatever topic is brought up that night.

Over-reaction much?
The word 'disgrace' might have been a bit much but I get his sentiment - it doesn't look half as good as the old one.
