Roger Petersen Replacing Kevin Frankish As BT Host
It's a good choice, given Roger's personality and the fact that his role on the late news was diminishing. I know Roger (he's the only person I've ever met who once lived on a boat) and he's a great guy. I wish him luck, especially with the hours.

Re: Roger Petersen Replacing Kevin Frankish As BT Host
I was watching this morning while working out at home and he seems like a good fit...for the show.
Hard to replace Kevin, but Roger is not going to offend viewers or rock the boat on BT...
Thanks for the share RA!
The world would be so good if it weren't for some people...

So, Stella Acquisto is now the “community correspondent”? Sounds to me like a live-eye host.

It looks like Stella is basically what Jennifer Valentyne used to be. But I'm guessing she comes a lot cheaper!

I asked Kevin Frankish about Jennifer Valentyne, while pointing out that the live-eyes never actually went away.
