That's the one! I'm sorry but its just too fussy... bad enough in real life, but on TV! I keep thinking she's going to turn to Bob and say;
"Despite your latest regeneration Bob, or SHOULD I SAY DOCTOR! You must be put on trial on Gallifrey and face you punishment!"

cheers for doing that, much appreciated - it certainly is a very pebble mill mistake to make.

i still maintain the green, orietal style, silky one is the scaryest - although it does only make a very rare appearance. perhaps its the one she goes for if the rest are at the dry cleaners.

there was another mistake at central presentation tonight - it seems to be that the subregional feed cuts to the LNN feed expecting a network trailer, but instead finding an LNN caption which is hidden (when they notice) by the ITV1 caption. basically the same as what happened a few days ago.



over on midlands breakfast, kay was in a VERY smiley happy mood. she informed viewers that rail chaos will continue as funding is to be withdrawn - followed by THE GOOD NEWS (intended to cheer people up, i think) - that radio shropshire has a NEW, STRONGER signal in church stretton and clun.

sadly her system was kaput this morning (as you will notice this morning, the ticker wasnt working at all) - so i was not forewarned of icer related danger. tragically i did fall over twice - but the thought of all those radio shropshire listeners getting a clearer signal gave me the resiliance to dust myself off, and get on with life.

and finally a midlands version of "the politics show" trailer, i do not like (exept the pebble mill-sed promo end board, of course)

Central News at Six seems to not be showing their long titles much these past few weeks - is this due to the serious news stories?
