Any reason why? The other presenting duos the male name comes first (Phillip & Holly, Eammon & Ruth, Richard & Judy) Why is Alison/Dermot the only ones the other way around?Because Alison has been there nearly 20 years and Dermot's been there 20 weeks - and the days of the female host being considered secondary to the male host are hopefully a thing of the past.
I never said Alison is secondary to Dermot! Since when does length of service mean you'll get named first? I just thought the "Dermot & Alison" titles would follow the other versions of the titles.
Branding and having a brand is about consistency is it not?
