Who should replace Susanna Reid?

Does it ever work when people move toother channels for vast amounts of money? I'm thinking of Adrian Childs and whatsername who left the One Show for ITV and were not only awful on that but were instantly replaced on the One Show. Have to say that I never watch Breakfast Tv and, when I was working I was getting ready to go out and now I'm not I sleep through it . The S.O. [who is a morning person] used to say that Susanna was 'very flirty'.

My only comment is "Never heard of her."

Agus She didn't get mine!!

Agus I agree! It made me really cross! But I darent say anything!

I'd vote for phoenix

I reckon Phoenix would be brilliant. Let's all write to the Beeb to suggest it.

Oh and it wouldn't feel the need to sing on air either.

A large jar of pickles. It would be much more interesting, giggle less frequently, not slap its thighs as if starring in Dick Whittington, not cross its legs, thus revealing its knickers, raise the IQ level of the entire programme and cost very little.

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

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.

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

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

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?

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 .

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

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

Errrm, I'm currently available.

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.

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

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.

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!

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 )

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

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

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.

- 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!
