ITV News London briefly shoehorned the election story that the Lib Dems won Windsor as they had Lucrezia Millarini covering the Coronation from Windsor, otherwise it was presented by Charlene White from Canada Gate. It proved again that ITV London really has no interest in the home counties unless it's a national story.I did think it was strange that Sally didn't present the weather today given she was presenting a report on the Coronation.
BBC London appeared to finally stop the work-to-rule use of reporters doubling up into senior presenter roles today (Samantha Simmonds presented on Wednesday) with Frankie McCamley in D covering the election news with Tim Donovan, while Asad Ahmad was also at Canada Gate.
It does happen from time to time that Sally will be only on a reporting shift, especially on a Friday when it's more likely to be a weekend hub forecaster on ITV London weather.
