That was prerecorded. Nicely inserted but let down by the close with him vanishing and no chair.

5 News also used the interview with Meghan Markle's half sister on the bulletin, complete with TWS logo as credit.

The Wright Stuff may benefit from changing their production to ITN with it having closer connections with 5 News.

Already a slight tweak, Storm did some of the viewer contributions from the audience area instead of sitting on a stool.

Lost in TV are now offering travel expenses for audience members. They must have issues getting them in?

There's a few audience members who seem to be there everyday so maybe they're trying to get some different faces and opinions in the audience. I know the 2 transgender women have been there every time I've happened to be watching.

I do like the Wright Stuff when I've got a day off, especially the news review which is guaranteed to benefit from ITN being producers. That should also bring in some better panellists (hopefully not the same person on the panel for a week) and as mentioned above better ties with 5News. It would be nice to see a short news bulletin during the programme - maybe on the hour.

Nigel Farage's second referendum comments have generated more publicity for TWS. Never seen so much publicity for the show in one week than in the 17 years it was with Princess.

Only the John Leslie incident springs to mind, but that was hardly positive publicity.

That's because ITN know what they're doing. However, Matthew Wright's conduct had a lot to be desired when interviewing Farage.

Or they got lucky. Suspect a significant number of personnel have been retained from Princess too.

This incident also gathered some traction on Wednesday, however for different reasons
