I think before the Israel-Gaza War, things had become more settled even if it wasn’t intentional. Generally speaking, the One had Jane or Ben. The Six had Sophie most nights with Fiona on Mondays. The Ten was almost Clive or Reeta. Saturdays were generally Jane or Ben with Clive or Reeta doing Sundays. Then with Mishal, Tina and Maryam as relief. (Although they were clearly stretched as they were bringing the likes of Katya Adler in). It’s only since the war developed and they sent Clive and Reeta out to Israel things have became a bit less predictable again.
I agree that it would be nice to see the 1/6/10 bulletins have their own designated presenters again, but then I also agree it makes sense to have more of a “team” vibe with everything that’s happened and see presenters covering various bulletins with each other. I think most viewers are familiar with most of the BBC News presenters for them to appear as and when needed.
