BBC News channel announces chief presenter line-up for revamp

The BBC has announced its line-up of chief presenters for its revamped TV news channel, following the decision to merge its two channels aimed at viewers in the UK and around the world.

Matthew Amroliwala, Christian Fraser, Yalda Hakim, Lucy Hockings and Maryam Moshiri will lead the line-up.They have not been named among the new chief presenters, however. A further eight correspondent roles, who will also co-present on the channel, will now be appointed, the corporation said. Recruitment is also under way for two presenting roles based in Washington DC."This team's editorial leadership, talent, knowledge and flair make them the ideal presenters to bring the BBC's trusted journalism to people at home in the UK and around the globe, and to guide audiences through the big stories as they break," she said.

It will be anchored from London during the daytime and evening in the UK, and from Washington DC and Singapore overnight.

Is that the face for rest my life.. cause BBC presenters I've known em since birth

Obsessed with politics of the USA and full of open distain for Britain - how the BBC has fallen.

They've taken on the Trump motto with their coverage 'America first, America first America first' they forget the country we're in 🤔

So you've dumped the middle-aged+ women news readers but kept middle-aged men and young women. 🤔 ageism

BBCWorld BBC total waste of money.

PS can we have a baseline re current viewing figures and then monthly updates as I have a notion your merger plan is going to backfire very badly. It might save you money - but will you have any viewers left?

So what is happening to ReetaChakrabarti- who doesn’t get a mention anywhere and is one of my favourite presenters?

Usual BBC kick out the old & experienced & bring on more eye candy & the trendy.

Making BBC even more Tory....

BBCWorld Still won’t watch it! Maybe try less woke propaganda and you will possibly gain viewers

MartineBBC 'Boris' sends his condolences 🤣 That's what you get for trying to be a smart arse.

Have they all been approved and paid bribes to the Prime Minister?

Did they pass the audition then?

If it is another rabid eurotwonk don’t bother.

I’ve already switched to sky news as lots of the foreign news is irrelevant to a British licence fee payer….

Is this going to be another far left woke tard ?

Is bbc news revamping into GB news? The bbc chair Richard sharp would approve

They'll be looking for black folk and London centric announcers l imagine.

Bring back datelinelondon please.

Couldn't care less, never watch BBC. Nothing but Tory cheerleaders.
