BBC News/World News

More likely Jane Hill. Fiona doesnt seem to present much, often once a week. She also hosts Question Time on a Thursday night.

Jane almost got the chop this year and I don’t know how often she does the six or ten. My pick is Sophie Raworth.

Yes, but if they came to her and said here’s a new job, it’s our highest paid and most senior news position, I am sure she’d consider making it work.
It’s quite common for people to move up the ranks in their job and as a result leave other positions/responsibilities.

I’ve always felt Clive Myrie would’ve been next in line after Huw

Feels like Clive Myrie might be Huw’s replacement after all of this. I see him fill in more often than others.

I guess others, like Fiona, have other things on the go at the moment.
But I think in terms of reputation and experience, she’d be the best person for the top job.

Given they’re still not Reithed by July, we’ll see how will it be updated/ruined… I won’t hold my breath on the former though.
