Nags is the new Burley!

Christmas Morning Breakfast. Year after year.

Actually, Louise did most of Christmas/New Year in 2018 because she'd been off for the previous 2 months. However, I accept that Naga seems to get the short straw most years.

and Steph did Christmas Day the year before that

I guess Dan can probably play the Sunday card on Christmas Day as well.

Still baffles me they fire up Salford on Christmas morning when they could just give them the day off and have a World/News Channel simulcast first thing and then begin regular programming earlier on Christmas Day.

Maybe it's someone completely unexpected and for that reason it's heavily embargoed.


Ortis Deley and Pamela Doove


Have they announced for the other bulletins?

Also, long shot. Could it be a surprise farewell appearance for Steph McGovern?

It’s Rob Bonnet and Moira Stuart.

Given nobody at NBH is working on domestic news at 6am any other morning of the year, why create a shift for that on Christmas Day? Firing up Salford on Christmas Day takes no more effort than any other day of the year, and they get an eighth of the BBC1 schedule out of it.

I'd speculate that the only reason the 29th hasn't had a confirmed line-up is simply down to it not being confirmed in time for the RT print run which is earlier than normal.


Is the right answer, probably.

We can't be far off the point when they give Jayne McCubbin a go ? <shudder>

It always seems surreal for some reason seeing Louise in NBH.

Agree and seems better than the cupboard they broadcast from in Salford.
