[QUOTE="Satdude, post: 435097, member: 175600"] Sky News shuffles schedule Sky News is to revamp its schedule, extending Julie Etchingham and Kay Burley's presenting roles and introducing a new web-based strand on weekday evenings. Today from 9am to 1pm. Burley will then take charge of the four hours between 1pm and 5pm, giving up her Lunchtime Live slot between 12pm to 2pm. Etchingham will be paired with Colin Brazier, while Burley will also get a co-presenter, Emma Crosby. The reshuffle means that between 6am and 7pm, the channel will have a single presenter leading its programme blocks. Eamonn Holmes will continue to host the Sunrise slot from 6am with co-presenter Charlotte Hawkins, while Jeremy Thompson will continue to front his Live at Five show. On Fridays, Mark Longhurst will present Sunrise. The changes, which take effect from the week beginning October 1, will also see a new half-hour web-influenced strand hosted by Martin Stanford, currently a morning presenter. Sky.c'om News will be shown from Tuesday to Friday, in the 7.30pm to 8pm slot occupied on Mondays by Jeff Randall's new live business show. The strand will feature the most clicked stories on the Sky News website, and provide further analysis of one of the most popular stories, as well as opening up online discussions to studio debate. There will also be a rundown of the best popular online video and news from around the world as caught by Sky News viewers. The strand will be streamed live on the Sky News website, with live content continuing online during the commercial break. In the rest of the evening schedule, Anna Botting will present the news from 7pm and again from 10pm to midnight, while Anna Jones takes care of the 8pm to 10pm slot. "Sky News is changing over its presenter line-up - as it does periodically - from October 1," a Sky News spokesman confirmed. "Sky.c'om News - a new strand - will begin on Tuesday October 2, marking a radical step forward in merging the boundaries between TV News breaking news and the web's news agenda." Sky News has also made three editorial appointments: Mark Evans is to become home news editor, having worked in that role on an acting basis; Phil Wardman moves to become head of newsgathering online; while Nick Phipps takes up the new post of executive producer events. The broadcaster is also looking for a new managing director to look after its Sky News Radio stations, which launch next year. Regards Satdude. [/QUOTE]
