Excuse me. This is an expectant mother you're talking about. Have some respect.

There's a lot of dignity in that, isn't there? Going out like a raspberry ripple.

I think there is a good case for a more mature lady newsreader, especially at 5.30PM when many OAPs are viewing....can I suggest Daphne from the EGGHEADS quiz programme ? Every news story presented would be presented with a nice warm smile......

She could do a cosy, non scary version of the news

I think that was Martyn Lewis (formerly of ITN).
You're right, in general journalists reckon that only disasters count as "news". In fact, I think the public would watch anything.

By the look of the dross that dominates our screens, I fear you are right in that assumption.

All the best

There was an airhead called Tash
Who reads news items for cash.
She moved to Channel Five
For a really good skive
Because no-one watches, it's trash!
