Shehab Khan was presenting the news headlines on ITVX today. I don't know if this was his first time. He presented very well. Someone to look out for in presenting the ITV1 news

He presented the lunchtime news quite a few times over Christmas

It's really not that clear cut.

Tom Bradby is a senior news presenter and journalist on a public service broadcaster. There are both professional ethics,  credibility and public perception issues at play here. 

Is Tom doing a journalism led interview that contains appropriate challenge questioning to any contentious claims  within the interview;  Is he appropriately questioning the circumstances of the interview,  and is the fact the interview is taking place to promote a book (and potential contractual requirements) scrutinised.

Basically the usual approach to journalism - challenging but not hostile. 

Or is Tom Bradby doing an entertainment interview (of his personal friend) where a open platform is provided and the questions are to drive narrative rather than reveal facts the interviewee doesn't necessarily want to talk about - where questions that are tricky aren't followed up.

If its the later, how can ITV let Bradby present any news show where repercussions or subsequent events of the Sussex/Windsor are reported?

Is the interview ITV or QVC?

And the majority of ITV News London bulletins as well.

I suspect they expected more, especially as the Oprah interview had 11m for ITV. I think many are just sick of the saga though whether they are Team Harry and Meghan, Team Daily Mail or Team Indifferent.
