Next week's ITV1 bulletins:

Weekend - Lauren Taylor
Evening News - Nicholas Owen and Andrea Catherwood (all week)

Who does lunchtime, do we know?

The Radio Times never gives the lunchtime presenter, but I guess it will be Andrea.

I think Mark Webster is a very good newscaster. He is wasted with the early morning news. He should be moved to the main ITV 1 News bulletins. He never seems bored reading the news. Unlike Romilly Weeks, Sian Jones, Felicity Barr, Steve Scott etc.

Unusual intro into Central News East... "This is ITV Central"

Has this been used before??

Becky Mantin just had a chat on the ITVNC about the weather. I've noticed that when they feature the weather outside of the bulletins, they use the regional GMG style map, why don't they use the National Weather graphics ?

In my opinion they should move over to the the GMG style for national weather, it seems to be superior, graphically.

He's a very poor newsreader in my opinion and should stick to reporting, he just reads whats on the autocue and nothing else, not even a 'hello' at the start of the bulletin on the 11.30pm last night

Lol, there's no point in paying that much for a signed photograph. Just write to them, and you'll get it for the cost of sending a letter!

YES - also I did like the virtual ITV Newswall on the evening news that quickly spun around to reveal an olympic-type studio. That was very well executed! The chairs and desk were omitted and Mary walked right over them - i think it was live aswell because she then handed over to Juliet Bremner live from Athens!

Shuilie Ghosh joined Andrew this morning for the Breakfast show.

This afternoon its Chris Rogers standing in for Steve Scott and Heather McCarthy standing in for Felicity Barr. Phil looks to be doing the Leyla/Joyce shifts.

Who's the person who's bidding £21.00 for an Autograph of Miss Barr?
