[DTV]

@DTV I rarely find myself disagreeing you. I think in terms of tv presenting we are cut from the same ilk as is itsrobert. 

But come on surely to call this an issue is a bit over dramatic. I concur that the News Channel calling those sections was ill executed and in fact only Afternoon Live has a certain difference to it than Newsroom Live. However, in this instance we are discussing a part of the schedule that has gone unchanged since before I was born (do not ask my age LOL). There is nothing wrong with BBC slating Laura's name to the programme. 

What's the issue with Sophie Ridge on Sunday? Or any other Sunday morning show? In fact, what would you call it? I always felt KUENSSBERG was too harsh a name alone.

Apologies, there seems to have been a bit of miscommunication. I wasn't saying it was/would be an issue - I don't think the audience will care what the official name is. If people do refer to it, like with Sophie Ridge on Sunday, it'll just be by the presenters' name anyway - I can confidently predict very few will ever say "did you see so-and-so on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg".

I was just lamenting the blandness of a lot of these programme titles. I personally prefer a bit of cleverness to a name like On the Record or The One Show or Match of the Day, rather than Sunday Afternoon, Evening Live or The Premier League Show as they'd no doubt be called under the present naming system. To me, the difference between Sunday AM and The Andrew Marr Show is the difference between the 2007 BBC Radio logos and their Reith equivalents - sure the latter is more functional, but it's generic and lacks the creative flair of its predecessor.
