After a rocky few years and major cutbacks, BBC Newsnight is officially turning the page — and it’s bringing in two familiar faces to do it. Paddy O’Connell and Matt Chorley have been announced as permanent presenters, joining Victoria Derbyshire, who continues to lead the show at the top of the week.
Victoria will be holding down Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, while Paddy takes over Thursdays and Matt rounds things off on Fridays. Both have already been popping up on the programme occasionally since Kirsty Wark’s departure in July, and now they’re locked in as regulars, starting this month, reported the Express.
