Not surprised. Things have swung too far. Why are MOTD having women presenters, as have Sky and TNT for men's games yet women's games have only women presenters like on the Women's Football Show.

Strangely this is not my opinion but my wife's who is p****d off with it.

Ian Wright is often on the women's show, there are 2/3 more that occasionally appear, but in reality what does it matter.

Some see this as ground-breaking... others see this as the BBC simply saving money... about 30% I expect... 😆

The darts has quite a lot of female presenters and I quite like them all, they all fit in rather well.

Good for Keely, though Sarah Storey would have been a good call.

How anyone can call darts a sport I'll never know. A skilful game, yes, but there's no physicality in it, unless a beer gut is necessary.

Didn't watch it. Didn't know it was on. I did watch the old BBC Miss Marple series with Joan Hickson. Been going through the series each evening.

As for presenters. I am sure they were all very good.

I thought the other Luke actually won the World Darts

So where is he in the nominations?

Ahh Joan Hickson was my favourite Marple, I can imagine Marple would have been just like her if she was real.

+1. All the others were good but Ms. Rutherford set the standard.

Also have the Films starring Margaret Rutherford on DVD. They are a delight and she was a wonderful actress. However for accuracy to the character then Joan Hickson (who also appeared in one of the Rutherford films in  a small part) was just perfect. But Rutherford is always a delight in anything she was in.

Kelly's brilliant fully deserved what an athlete.With regard to people's comments about things moving to far the other way.My 92 year old Mum asked me the other day why are so many Black mixed race Asian people on all the commercials these days.I couldn't give her a good reason why.Based on percentages maybe one in five commercials should include this ratio of race.The worlds gone Fing barking mad.

Kelly Cates, Kenny Dalgleish's daughter, tipped as new motd presenter. Think she'd do well.

Grace Dent to replace Greg Wallace in MasterChef.

SPOTY used to be great viewing when I was a kid but haven't seen it for ages and really not bothered about it now same with MOTD.

Yes I heard that too, it will be interesting to see how they both get on.  Personally I would have preferred Ian Wright on MOTD, although in all fairness I rarely watch it!

No no no. Too hockey sticks and Margaret Rutherford has already done that sort of thing brilliantly already. Gary Lineker as the idiot detective who always ignores her. Maybe Sue Barker could play a younger version of Miss Marple. Marple the early years.
