I'd be intrigued to know how much money this has actually saved, given for example they are paying presenters like Martine etc still, despite her not being on air currently.

Yes it’s very odd we are seeing people like Sarah Campbell and presenters from the regions instead of the half dozen people that have been full time regulars on both channels.

Sarah Campbell is presumably full time BBC staff so her appearing won’t cost anything that wouldn’t be being paid in any case. The only particularly surprising appearance is from Anjana Gadgil and then only because she is vocally refusing to present the main South Today bulletin (as this gives the appearance of her selectively taking part in industrial action to the benefit of her own career).
