Well it’s a slight step up from the newsreader Nine News Sydney used on Christmas Day last year, isn’t it?

Refresh my memory please …who presented last year?

Peter Stefanovic.

Considerably better as a reporter than a presenter IMO, but as I’ve said before I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if he eventually succeeds another Stefanovic, if not another Peter (at TCN Sydney)! :wink:

Oh ok Nine’s next golden boy!:neutral_face:

I am pretty sure he is No.4 in line to present Nine News Sydney after Pete, GG and Deb. But TBH I never liked him as a presenter on Nine news and Weekend Today. Glad he is moving on now.

I would beg to differ. Pete is way better than Ben IMO. I really dislike Fordham and his presenting skills. Mark Burrows would be a far better choice.

I don’t think we will see Peter presenting any more bulletins this year,he is going to be busy with hosting duties on weekday Today.

Justine Conway presenting weather on Afternoon News and in Melbourne while Livinia Nixon is on holidays, she also presented on the weekend.l would’ve thought Madeline Slattery would have presented on the weekend.

Monday (5.12.16)- Friday (9.12.16): Melissa Downes is anchoring solo in Brisbane.

A promo for Ken’s last week just aired on Nine Sydney.
Sorry for the ordinary cap quality.

Ben did refer to himself as the person who is called up when almost absolutely everyone is away.

Is Ben a freelance?

Apologies for the double post, but does anyone know what Leila McKinnon’s role on Nine is now? Haven’t seen her on screen as much these days.

I’m pretty sure that Leila McKinnon mainly fills in for Tracy Grimshaw on A Current Affair these days.

She used to be Weekend Today’s presenter with Cameron Williams right?

Yes, and also presenter of Inside Story before that show was axed. I don’t think Leila has presented any news bulletins for years now…

I actually liked Leila McKinnon on Weekend Today, why did she leave the show? (BTW much prefer Her or Mark Burrows or someone else to present Nine News Sydney this Christmas)
