These ‘newer’ faces like Gareth, Nancy, Luxmy etc are doing a really good job.

They've got to put E out of action so that it can be refitted. I'm sure it will return to its former glory in time.

Presumably this means they can also soon start work on repairing or removing the hoop in the newsroom.

And maybe improving both the HostageCam™ and the Powerpoint Touchscreen

I thought the official line was there were no immediate plans to refit it, and only an assumption that it would be refitted once funds became available in a future financial year. Has this changed?

Martine Croxall tweeted that the news channel would return to E later in the year.

Well, it was "future financial year" in March, but April came and so it is current financial year now.

Have they also not recently been looking at new cameras, considering the infrastructure required to be changed it would be the most logical for E to be used.

Well Everything Changes. With a bit of Patience we'll find out if he's Back for Good. If he did Shine perhaps eventually he will Rule the World, though maybe that'll turn out to be the Greatest Day of his career which he'll Never Forget.

Has Stephen Sackur been on since the merger? He features quite prominently in the countdown so bit surprised I haven’t seen him.
N.B. I know this is an extremely boring question but really needed to ask 🙈
