No one since Matt Galloway has stuck at Metro Morning for long, and is it 3 or 4 years since he left for The Current? Who are likely candidates to take over?

Personally I’m a big fan of Sir Trevor MacDonald’s departure as anchor of the ITN News at Ten in the UK. A dignified, respectful farewell to the audience:
