After ten years as sole presenter of the BBC’s regional evening news programme ‘North West Tonight’, it seems Gordon Burns may soon be sharing the show.
Word reaches How-Do that BBC bosses have decided that fellow reporter, Lancastrian lass Ranvir Singh, will co-present the show from the summer. Singh is currently the principal stand-in when Burns is away.
There has been talk of co-presenters in the past but Belfast-born Burns has felt quite comfortable presenting on his own hitherto.
Someone somewhere is spitting feathers at the news.
Suggestions re who might take the roles of Will Ferrell and Christina Applegate welcome….
