ITV Calendar's main presenter Duncan Wood is set to leave the broadcaster after 19 years. The presenter of the news channel covering Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire is to say goodbye to the channel tomorrow (26 May).
Duncan, who has been away from work due to health issues, will say farewell in a recorded message almost 19 years to the day of his first broadcast. The presenter started his career as a reporter at a local paper in Sunderland before writing for the nationals.
He moved into broadcasting at Newcastle's Metro FM and then began his 32 years in television at ITV Tyne Tees. Duncan also spent 7 years as North of England correspondent and stand-in presenter at GMTV before joining ITV Calendar.
