BBC News 24

I've been watching News 24 this weekend and noticed the lack of a countdown, and now realise why.

Ha ha !

Serves them right for putting their "celebrities" rather than ordinary people in it, or the elegant simplicity of how it used to be (just a big number and a menu).

If they were going to put people in it anyway, what about their hardest garfting presenters, the bread and butter of News 24 such as Joanna Gosling?

I won't miss Kaplinsky. Nice enough woman, but coming from Sky I always thought she was more suited to them or some other tabloid commercial channel rather than the authoritative BBC.

Bring back Jeremy and Sophie on Breakfast !
