Presenters. . .

We were going to put together a list of our favourite presenters, but each and everyone of the presenters on TalkTv are absolutely brilliant, Thank you.

Only tiny screen available

Until a few weeks ago there was a button that allowed you to increase the picture size to full screen. This button has now disappeared, and only the tiny screen is available. Aways very frustrating when an upgrade makes an app unusable. I'm using iPad mini, 5th gen.

The best.

Was annoyed when Mike Graham was pushed but returned to the home of common sense after a short while. Quite a lot of presenter shuffling which isn’t bad thing but Ian Collins needs swapping out for someone with more grit.
