I have just returned from the Madejski stadium in Reading where I was a guest at their lunch to officially launch the new ITV Thames Valley news programme. At the end of last year the two smallest ITV regions merged to create the new region. Its good news for Newbury because for the first time we are in the centre of a region, rather than being on the edge, and we Newburians like to be at the centre of things!
We were in the Royal Suite with a fantastic view of the stadium through huge glass windows, and we had a super three course meal. There were some famous faces - Michael Grade, Boris Johnson, Martin Salter, John Madejski and Raymond Blanc. Pictured with me are the news presenters Mary Green and Wesley Smith who were charming. I sat next to Michael Jermey the national editor of ITV regional news, and Stuart sat between the ITV Thames Valley producer, and Sangeeta Bhabra, one of the reporters.
