- Nina Hossain
Nina has been in London for over 10 years now. Her move to the Capital began with a stint as a Reporter/Presenter on the then Newsroom South East programme for the BBC. In 2001 she became one of the launch faces of BBC London News and went on to present their flagship evening news programme. Not long after that though, she made the move across London to ITN. Having presented all of ITN's main bulletins, from the ITV Evening News to News at Ten, she's now firmly in position on the London Tonight sofa.Career highs include reporting and presenting coverage of London's Olympic win, the July 7th terrorist attacks, the open-ended coverage of the failed attacks later in that month, and, on a fluffy note interviewing the late Patrick Swayze, the ever-lasting Duran Duran, and Wonder Woman.
When not working Nina enjoys spending time with family and friends, a good book and her i-pod. She is also a keen traveller, and took time out in 2003 to sail around the world on a tall ship, she also loves snowboarding.
- Ben Scotchbrook
Anyone who likes their London news later in the day will have seen Ben popping up on our late evening programme. Over 15 years with ITN, his various tours of duty have seen him producing at the Oscars, reporting from the White House, and talking to the Great Train Robber Ronnie Biggs in Rio. As part of the London Tonight team, he's travelled to Moscow to preview Russian acts heading to Trafalgar Square... and joined RAF cadets renovating a local school in a Ghanaian village. And then there are the people he's chatted with on the London Tonight sofa - including World Champion boxers, Oscar winning directors and Mayors of London - both of them. Oh, and the legend that is Rolf Harris - he's rather proud of a little picture Rolf drew for him: "Not everyone brings one of those home from the office."
- Charlene White
Charlene is a South Londoner born and bred, and has worked at ITV London since 2008. She's had a varied career before landing on our doorstep -- working at ITV Meridian, lots of jobs at the BBC and even lived in the USA writing for the New York Post. The strangest feature she wrote was 'How To Pick Up a New York Fireman' which meant finding the best place in Manhattan to meet single firemen. As she says, "Gosh it was a tough assignment". She's also covered the July 7th bombings, riots in Paris and interviewed Jay-Z - "I've ended up in some truly dodgy situations working in this job, but I can't lie… I love it. I've interviewed some weird people, some inspirational people, and been told some incredible stories." When she's not being a news geek, Charlene can be found feeding her clothes and shoes addiction in Bromley, or wandering aimlessly around Lewisham market.
- Robin McCallum
Having never won so much as a bottle of Lucozade at a village fete, Robin's luck changed in 2002 when he won 'Weather Idol' on This Morning, which launched him into a career as a weather presenter. His previous incarnation as an actor was only useful in masking his fear at appearing on television without being able to hide behind an elaborate period costume, but beyond that it was a question of starting from scratch. Met Office training followed with a stint on the National Weather before he joined ITV London where duties include not only presenting the weather and regularly talking nonsense on the studio sofa, but also reporting. So alongside a cold front or a heatwave, if there's a hedgehog battling obesity or a dog entering a diving competition, Robin's your man...
