Gordon Sparks was a local legend and was a very nice tribute to him, it was also nice to see in the footage that then had the old Westcountry Television W logo on some of the football coverage and credited Westcountry Television pictures to it.
RIP Gordon

Sabet Choudhury made his debut on ITV News West Country this evening. Similar to how Anglia introduced David Whiteley, Sabet and his temporary co-presenter Eli-Louise Wringe filmed a piece on the patch to interview him for viewers to get to know him. (Unless you watched Points West!)

Looks like the Points West studio needs a bit of a clean:

Interesting to see the Politics West branding peeking through on the right hand side.

ITV West Country East reporter Marina Jenkins is on secondment to Channel for the next two weeks. I understand Marina is from Jersey, so it's a trip home briefly.

It's called 'ITV News West Country'. Now go and wash out your mouth with soap, you naughty boy!
Such legacy regional brands are banned!
