Seemed a bit arrogant too to say goodbye to BBC1 viewers specifically in such a lengthy manner midway through her shift.It's the best 2 minutes the merged channel has every produced.
Outside of more magazine style programmes like Breakfast presenters usually leave very quietly with just the briefest of acknowledgements it's their final shift unless they're a broadcasting legend. So whilst it's understandable she wanted a couple of minutes to say goodbye it's questionable that the producers arounded her afforded her so much airtime for the purpose.
