Re my previous post-Shaun Ley just confimed the change of day at the very end of today's edition.

I assume they’ll still be using E for it? News channel usually comes from C for all of Friday nights apart from the ten.

Oh, I say!! Weekends all change!

Exciting, because since I started watching the News Channel, I've always wanted an 'unusual' presenter to be on weekends to do the BBC One news. I never like it to be the regular presenter, whoever they are. Then, when the 'unusual' person starts doing the news more often and then becomes regular, I don't want them anymore, I always want whoever rarely does it to be doing it, until they actually do quite often, then want someone else, who I then won't like as soon as they start doing it regularly. I am therefore glad we are having a presenter today who hasn't normally done the weekend lunchtime news and hopefully we might see more people we normally see on the News Channel only more often on BBC One. And, then once they are on every week...

However they have got fewer people these days to choose from, impacted by the coronavirus too that seems to have a small number of presenters being regularly rotated for several weeks at a time. I hope we get more 'rare' presenters on BBC One. Exciting would not quite be the word for many people at all - in fact it would be dry and boring, but for TVNewsViewer, it is hugely exciting and perhaps I am half-winding you up in my excitement! (!!) Only half(!).

"Expect" is an interesting word (again not interesting for anyone much at all). I obviously must like the unexpected here.

Probably, guess there's no E Friday night so the Ten can rehearse and the 20:00-22:00 presenter doesn't need to change studio so no problem with E being used at 19:30

Annita was standing up in the several minutes up to 1130. Wondering if they were obviously setting up Dateline and had Shaun Ley and guest (which turned out to be Clive Myrie) in place. I thought it was strange if Shaun was coming in to present Dateline at 1130 and yet not taking over to present the rest of the news presenter shift for the early afternoon.

Yes, it was a logistical stand-up for precisely the reason you have written.

I’m thrilled to learn that stand-up news is being banned in future. It’s not before time.

I wonder if this rota shake up has anything to do with Kasia Madera not doing the papers anymore.

At a guess, they're probably going back to a 4 day week so Tim will probably do it 4 days a week Monday through Thursday now instead.

Thought talking about Annita being on this morning was risky but it's interesting

No it isn’t.

Spot on. Let's cut the rota talk shall we?

was watching Marr this morning and noticed that he wasn't wearing an earpiece. How would he be able to conduct the remote interviews as well as hear the director cueing him etc?

Nice to see them do something different with the other corner this morning, even if it's possibly raiding the CBBC prop store.
