If the BBC must put Nicky Campbell's show out on TV in the UK, just put it on BBC 2 & iPlayer and put a proper news service out on the news channel.
As I've said before, it's also a really weird decision to waste that two hour slot considering it's BBC World News' deadest hours - so you can afford to be a bit more UK-focussed. Plus, if World take pre-recorded back half hours (as they usually do in that slot), you can dedicate a whole half-hour to UK news.
