Who should replace Susanna Reid?

I prefer silence, no TV or radio, just a cuppa and my own thoughts...

Never heard of Naga Munchetty - what sort of name is that? I'm off to google her...

The Naga bit is right at least! I would like the job myself as I think it would pay a bob or two. I did like Susanna, thought she was just right.
Don't really mind though.

Well, now I know ... you got her name right, Kittylester. Apparently she annoys a lot of people...

Local radio for me all day - don't switch on TV until the evening news

Who IS Susannah Reid?!

I have never had a problem with Naga Munchetty who normally works on a Sunday morning. She is bright and articulate.

- sorry I should have said Sian Williams, not Lloyd!!

Naga does the 'Business' some mornings, before Breakfast starts, as well as standing in during the week. I find her a bit strident!

Naga Munchetty drives DH and I insane. Her voice is very loud, she talks over her fellow presenters and guests and has an opinion about everything. I read about someone saying 'she should realise this is not the Naga Munchetty Show' the sooner the BBC get rid of her the better.

Radio 4 for me - mind you John can be a bit strident at times!

Radio 4 here too! yes, nothing like a good shout at John "Grumphrys" to start the day!

And now Michel Hussein has joined the Today team it is no longer so male dominated and a bit less hysterical in tone. (a little less of hyper-Humphreys is a blessing I find. And he is particularly dire if asked to interview an ordinary person who he cannot just attack.) The BBC Trust have made themselves useful and told BBC managers to stop being so sexist in their choice of programme presenters, experts invited to speak on important topics etc etc.
(they do sometimes scrape the bottom of the barrel when trying to present issues in a "balanced" way though - Nigel Lawson, expert on climate change )

We don't watch telly until Homes Under The Hammer while we're having a cuppa. We wouldn't get any work done if we did!

The only room in the house with a tv is the sitting room, and we don't even go through until 6.30pm at the earliest. (More likely to be 7.15pm for me, after I've listened to the Archers)

On the subject of interview technique, I do admire Eddie Mair, he has a lovely way with "ordinary" people, but can be very tenacious without being over aggressive with politicians and such.

I quite like Louise Minchin, but agree with comments about Naga.

Don't you feel better when other people feel the same about certain presenters. I dislike this woman soooo much that I'm thinking of watching Sky news. I never thought that would be a sentence I would write.
Has anyone noticed that Bill and Charly don't like her. It comes across as plain as the nose on your face.

Errrm, I'm currently available.

I was just wondering where Susanna Reid's mother has gone. Haven't heard from her since Strictly finished.

As I believe I posted before, perhaps she feels her work here is done?

Phoenix . I had been wondering about Grandmaminey too - probably true!
The morning 'News' programmes are just inflated Magazine type programmes full of Celeb rubbish and interspersed with a little news here and there. I like to know what's going on in the world, hear some proper news and a few hearty discussions. I don't want to watch Bill Wotshisname , Louise Minnikin or whatever she's called, and Susannah Reid sitting on the sofa mumbling, giggling and carrying on in an infantile way. I'm beginning to think the One Show in the evening, which I have only watched a few times, is more grown up than Breakfast and that's saying something .

phoenix - it definitely is!

I agree petra and this morning Dh announced that Steph 'obviously doesn't like her either!'

I didn't like Charlie when he first started but I do now.

But, who should replace Susanna if not, hopefully, Naga?

Yes. Some of us jumped on jingl over a comment she made about Grandmaminey but I think she was spot on.

I am sure I remember Susanna Reid saying that she would not leave the BBC. A million pounds is obviously a big incentive.

How about Steph taking over then? She's a down to earth girl and, as yet, is not over inflated in the 'Am I not wonderful' department.

To me it was plain as day why Grandmaminey was posting! She was using GN to get votes.
