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.
The programme won't be quite the same.
A journalist who has steely determination when needed, but who always comes across as being fair.

They did.
Gordon wasn't the presenter.
It was a dismal failure.

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.

They didn't say.
Not that I saw anyway.

Re: Gordon Burns - End of an Era
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.

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.
