Just found out that Carole wasn't even asked to audition for the main presenter's job on G.W. I just can't believe they would by pass her like this. Why? She is clearly the best and most popular presenter. I can only assume that it's because she is mature, and a lady. What a mistake.

She got passed since she did not formally apply for the job. She expected to be automatically considered. But the way the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú human resource system is setup, it does not work that way.

Are you both in the know, or are you just guessing?

the newspaper articles written on the subject when it happened seem very clear on the facts.

Joe - the G - I suggest you acquaint yourself with the wonders of Google. See this report - and this one - and there are probably others still available online.

What is this Google of which you speak, Obby? Here we're lucky if the hairy man with the forked stick full of parchments manages to traverse the flea- and fly-infested marshes to bring us last year's news before yet another generation dies of rickets, scurvy and the clap.
