It started on 13th January 2003: This Week, First of a new weekly series reviewing the week in politics. Hosted by Andrew Neil, with Michael Portillo and Oona King. Followed by Skiing Weather.
Executive editor at the start was Jamie Donald, now running a nice B&B in a village just west of Tonbridge. But the show was devised and developed by Vicky Flind, the current Mrs Huw Edwards.
It will end in July this year, by which time host Andrew Neil will be 70. BBC News has effectively chosen to 'retire the shirt'. Which is probably a wrong call.
