Goodbye to BBC South Today

[Dave the OAP]

so no, jo kent, no raham, no alexis, no dani, no laura.

this morning we had some arfo carribean bloke reading from a piece of paper..

BTW is it a pre-requisite that when you present the weather on BBC, within the space of 12 months you have to be so pregnant you look like a whale? apart from raham obviously who looks like Miss World!!!

 

[Digweeds Trousers]

as I said on another thread - I think the BBC south east is far superior to south today.

You get the lovely Polly Evans presenting

As someone mentioned, there is Kaddy Lee-Preston (best watched with the sound turned down).

There are also some very good back up totty.....sorry, presenters.

Often seen in T Wells. A miserable little dwarf who is clearly plastered in make up. Is rude, arrogant and seems to think she is a celebrity. She's not. She is in fact a twat.

Well, Virgin have already thrown the switch, so I can safely say 'goodbye to bad rubbish like Sally 'condescending' Taylor! The first news report this morning contained 3 stories from the Brighton area in the first 5 up, just hope this continues. Mind you, the newsreader was as dull as ditchwater.

 

[Braders]

This is TERRIBLE news - who's going to arselick Southampton now?

 

[Paskman]

Does this mean that we won't be getting that ex Saints and Reading prat on Late Kick Off Monday nights any more?

Yes you get that ex Palace prat Mark Bright instead

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I think you'll be mostly getting news of knifings on the Isle of Sheppey. I get the impression nothing else ever happens there. They are also very fond of sending someone over to Calais to find out more about how the French like to run a ferry service.

What I was asking really was, will my regional news programme be changing, or does this Whitehawk transmitter only affect Brighton & Hove residents. I haven't been in at local evening news time to check.

I have absolutely no idea where my local news comes from (other than the obvious "Southampton").

I believe it's only Whitehawk that is changing and only people in Brighton and Hove will be picking that up. When I was in Mid Sussex I think I picked up a (crap) signal from somewhere like Midhurst.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Yeah, that sounds familiar, I think I'm probably on the Midhurst transmitter. Ah well. I shall continue to enjoy the snippets of prime local news from Sandbanks, Basingstoke and the Salisbury ring road then.

 

[Badger]

Don't forget all that vital sailing news.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Don't forget all that vital sailing news.

Oh yes, Cowes Week is always a highlight of the Mid Sussex sporting calendar.

 

[Manx Shearwater]

So farewell then,
Alexis weathergirl.

You look like
You'd look great,
Dressed as a
Schoolgirl.

I'm willing to
bet
you've got
a warm front
moving in
from the West.

 

[skipper734]

Oh yes, Cowes Week is always a highlight of the Mid Sussex sporting calendar.

You might be surprised at the amount of people in Sussex that are interested in that sort of thing. Unfortunately South Today doesn't do that very well either.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Now Medway airport.

Agreed. Much more in the way of Sussex news. I dare say there's probably an element of trying to hook us from day one by chucking in load of Brighton items, but its all good.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Rahan has just been on


Wooooohoooo

 

[Blue n White]

Thank god charlton and Gillingham played last night We might get a mention tonight.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

For non-Albion football news, its already a refreshing change to see The Hess's perma-frown rather than Adkins smug grin.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Hess looks suicidal

 

[tiberious]

I live in Hove and after re tuning a getting South today... this means I can follow the plight of the mighty Portsmouth for longer... Oh Lucky Me

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Hess looks suicidal

If that's what he's like after a 3-1 win, what's he like when they've lost?
