Bubbly Look East weather girl Julie Reinger is presenting the Saturday Evening Look East edition. This is weird because the all bubbly girl is now all serious and proper.

I thought this was odd, this slot has always traditionally been the job of one of the sports team. I take it this is her first her time in the chair.

Well Victoria Graham is presenting Spotlight these days, and she was a BBC Network Weather presenter for quite a while.

Didn't EMT's Anne Davies present the weather on GMTV for a while as well - or am I getting this confused?

plus Hannah Moffat who had a stint reading Look North Breakfast (Hull edition) but now does reporting, she did the weather in one of the regions for a while before moving to Hull.

It seems that in Wales we have it both ways.

Weather presenter James Wright presents the news on ITV Central whereas previous news presenter Ruth Dodsworth now presents the weather!

Always have to be different in Wales!

Isn't it?!

You're getting confussed, she was a newsreader (well actually she was the original weekday co-presenter).

And for a while Ruth Wignal used to present both news bulletins and the weather on HTV Wales, however the last couple of years she has just presented the weather.

Yep, she was one of the weather presenters on BBC South East for a while.

And don't forget lukwesa burak when she was at BBC East Midlands, she presented the odd bulletin here and there, the 320 afternoon slot a norm to see her presenting it. And now, she is at Sky News fulltime, hung up her clicker for now at least.

Shefali Oza is normally Suzanne Virdee's first choice 'sit in' on Midlands Today.
