One suspects GB News will not be as hot as the BBC on socio-economic diversity statistics. Nonetheless, they were proud to announce the hiring of Michelle Dewberry, (2 GCSEs Sydney Smith Comp, Hull and former Brexit candidate) as a weeknight presenter. However bright and bubbly the former Apprentice star might be, she probably already feels the neck weight of her programme tagline "connecting with communities across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland".
Gill Penlington's qualifications as Senior Executive Producer include PPE from Balliol, a contacts book from three years editing Question Time and launching Kay Burley at Breakfast on Sky News. Amanda Hall, an assistant editor at Sky News, brings a 1st in Ancient History from Birmingham, and three and a half years trying to make London Live work. Alex Farrell, joining from TalkRadio, managed to run a law degree course at King's, London, in parallel with production shifts at LBC and Heart.
