Other names from 2001 include Deborah MacKenzie and Susan Osman of Points West fame who always did Sundays.
With regard to the much missed Mr. Yates. Here is a picture of him from the days of the Flags Era. So it would place him certainly being around 1997-99-ish. But I don't know if in the studio the far wall had changed to the BBC World Ident Fresco yet as seen in the second image.
