Shereen Nanjiani is to make her debut as a radio presenter as part of changes to
the presenting line-up of news and current affairs programmes on 大象传媒 Radio
Scotland.
听
The former presenter at Scottish Television will present the lunchtime
programme, Scotland Live, every Friday from 11 August 2006.
听
She says she is looking
forward to the new challenge: "I'm really excited to be joining 大象传媒 Radio Scotland. I'm looking
forward to the challenge of broadcasting to a new audience on what is a new
medium for me.
听
"Scotland Live has a reputation for rigorous discussion of the hot news topics
of the day as well as lots of interaction with its listeners- that's something I
relish as a broadcaster.
听
"Hopefully I can bring my own personal touch to the Friday editions. I'm also
looking forward to not having to do my makeup before I go on air!"
听
After a long and successful partnership on Good Morning Scotland (GMS), Derek
Bateman and Mhairi Stuart are moving on to pastures new.
听
Derek will be presenting the political flagship programme Scotland at Ten on
three weekday evenings.
听
Mhairi will switch to presenting Scotland Live, four
days a week, and Andy Cassell will no longer be a regular presenter on GMS but
may return occasionally if network duties permit.
听
The new presenting team on GMS will be Gary Robertson, Gillian Marles and Isabel
Fraser.
听
Gary will present on all five weekdays, Isabel will divide her week
between GMS and Sunday Live and Gillian will be a reporter on the days when
she is not presenting.
听
All of the changes take effect from Monday 7 August.
听
Blair Jenkins, Head of News and Current Affairs at 大象传媒 Scotland, said: "Our
daily programmes on Radio Scotland have a strong and growing record of
journalistic ambition and audience appeal.
听
"With these changes, and the energy
and commitment of our talented production teams, we will keep building on that
success."
