Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Sorry to see Gordon Burns leaving BBC North West Tonight. He's been part of the furniture for so long.

He'll be missed.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

North West Tonight?

I still thought he was on Suprise, Suprise with Cilla-rear, until I saw this thread.

Who are they bringing in to replace Gordon. Stuart Hall?

He's still going strong.

:D

The programme won't be quite the same.

A journalist who has steely determination when needed, but who always comes across as being fair.

Bring back the Krypton Factor!

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

They did.

Gordon wasn't the presenter.

It was a dismal failure.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

It wasn't exactly my favourite programme when he presented it!

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

I liked Gordon Burns and he is definitely going to be missed from NWT........who is taking over as his replacement(I was hoping they would say at the lunchtime news).......I missed the show tonight.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

They didn't say.

Not that I saw anyway.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Roger Johnson.

Whoever he is.

Roger Johnson the new co-presenter for BBC North West Tonight | How-Do

Gordon Burns isn't disappearing altogether. He has a radio show on Radio Lancashire at 9am on Sunday.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

It won't be the same as seeing him though........I never was much of a one for romantic interests...but I would give Gordon the top off my egg any morning.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Aha!

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

I like older men!

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Hehe to be fair we are very lucky, the whole team are very good

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

They are.

I think I have a crush on Ranvir Singh.

Even Tony Livsey's not too bad.

Despite informing us Elvis was living on the Moon in a London bus, when he was editor of the Sunday Sport...and being a Dingle.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Thanks sweety:D

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Tony is funny, it doesn't matter what he does he always looks like he's been dragged through a hedge, he used to work on The Nelson Leader and he bought his house off a friend of mine

Don't know wether you need to sign in but some great photos of the team here

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

So he'll make a good replacement then wadey

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Perfect !

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

You're welcome sugar........they say that you can play a fine tune on an old fiddle :D

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Well they always seem to want a stradivarius:D

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

I thought that someone called Roger Johnson was taking over from Gordon Burns....not Tony Livesey.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

BBC News - Roger Johnson leaves BBC South Today for Manchester

I'm not doing a c'mon....honest, I'm not!

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Yes John....but, only so they can sell it and make a profit.:D
Would buy a lot of shoes and handbags.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

He'd be staying the night then ... ;)

Me too, Margaret ... was quite attractive in a charismatic way.
Only met him once at a Christmas do at the Midland Hotel, Man. Absolutely charming man.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Is that why he's retiring from the telly, exhaustion?

:rolleyes::D

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Introduced to Gordon at Granada Studios way back in the 1980's, during a major enquiry when he was the frontman for 'Police File'. The most amenable and helpful media person I have ever come across. I will always remember him as that rarety: a media personality who was not up his own backside . . . so to speak. Heard his first broadcast on Radio Lancashire last Sunday and it went down very well.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

No Kate........I would invite him over for breakfast. I'm not one of those fast cats;).
Now you have made me very envious.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

More of a Lucy Meacock man myself

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

I would hope so......!

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

You and me alike BG our Lucy is very nice not only on the TV screen but in real life too, no airs and graces, very easy to talk to

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

I reckon Tony Livesy & Mozzer would both be good lads to have a few beers with.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

Tony Livesy :eek:Hes a Dingle Dave:D

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

That's fine, I don't mind drinking with the underprivileged as long as they stand their round. :D

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

My first ex was a dingle named Livesey - I wonder if he may be a relative.
Perhaps I'm better of not knowing - it isn't something I would brag about:rolleyes:

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
 

A Dingle Margaret:eek::eek::eek:You more than anyone should know mixed marriages don't work, Humans and Dingles:D
