Lovely

It's not strictly (geddit?) as interesting as Susanna Reid moving to become the Sister Mary Clarence of ITV breakfast output, but we can confirm that Isabel Webster will be the new partner for Eamonn Holmes on the Sky News Sunrise sofa.

Isabel has a degree in Politics and Theology from Bristol University, and a postgrad diploma in journalism from City University. Her pedigree includes Radio Bristol and Points West.

How did she get the big gig ?  Here's an extract from Clifton Life magazine, as recently as September last year, where Isabel was answering questions...

Q: Who is the loveliest person you have met in TV ?

A: Without question it has to be Eamonn Holmes. After we presented together for the first time he emailed some nice feedback to my boss at Sky News. An endorsement from a veteran broadcaster like that has the capacity to change a career, and I will be forever grateful. 

Crikey. And Fiona Fullerton thought Ms Reid determined. You can only fault the use of 'veteran'; please, someone, pass it on to the auld fella.
