Basically, we now have the same number of shifts being filled by five presenters as were being filled by six before July - combinations of leave and illness, particularly over the summer, is going to mean there are a few extra slots where none of the regulars are available. This is also why Husain has been appearing a bit more regularly during the week recently.
I think it's worth noting (as it's a role she held for a long time) that I don't think Mishal Husain does Sundays anymore, she certainly hasn't done it for a long while. It's usually always Clive or Reeta, with her popping up during the week every so often instead.
