Talk:Trevor McDonald

message: Im find that he has the most amusing accent/speech pattern, posh, but something not quitre right about it. I would be pleased if anyone can add it correctly to the page, as it is quite a large part of his personality. Jackpot Den 20:30, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Could the anonymous editor who's insisting on adding the following text:
"over the titles of the last bulletin McDonald presented, the ITV1 from February 2 - 2004 - January 15, 2006, the 1988 - 1992 and 1992 - 1999 News at Ten theme was played instead of the ITV News theme, as a tribute to McDonald.",
please provide a reference for it.  Myself and many other editors are reverting this as vandalism, as it does not appear to make sense.  Thanks. -- MightyWarrior (talk) 09:35, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

message: McDonald was not the first black newscaster in the UK - that honour belongs to Clyde Alleyne, who worked on Tyne-Tees TV from 1967. McDonald was the first black newscaster on ITN, and the footnote supports only this claim. Can someone please change the article to reflect this?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.184.12 (talk) 14:21, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
