A lot of losses this year, and Bruce Paige would be one of the biggest for Nine QLD.
He had a fantastic run.
First time a political editor hosting nightly news.
But Charles has presented the news before taking on the role as political editor
Yeah, but not like Laurie and Chris. They haven’t presented a nightly news
Laurie no, but Chris did present one summer on Today whilst being political editor
Last day for Bruce appears to be Friday 16 Dec when there will be a big party held.
He will continue to file reports for the bulletin related to seniors.
Eva to present the GC News solo in 2023?
That would be an option, though at present she rarely presents 5 days a week, so pehaps they may need to train someone up for the Friday bulletin.
Maybe they could entice Wendy Kingston to come back and do Fridays + occasional special reports?
When was the live backdrop reintroduced?
Tonight is the only time I’ve seen it used.
Just saw a promo endboard in Melbourne for Dougal Beatty. First time I’ve seen one specifically for him, so I assume he must be the permanent weekend presenter this Summer.
About time they started promoting him… clearly he’s going to be taking over weekends soon permanently.
They should send him up to Sydney and do some fill in work on Today or Today Extra. Help build up his profile.
Wouldn’t Brett McLeod take over weekends when Alicia moves to weekdays?
Depends on how long his stint in the UK will be
Jayne Azzopardi is presenting in Sydney on Saturday
Why not just get Davina to do 6pm?
