"It's been one of those mental markers that punctuate the day for as long as I can remember."
She continued: "I remember the first time my regional news report made it on to 'The One' and the first time I joined the programme presenting the regional bulletin… it felt part of something big and special.
"Today I presented it for the first time, it was Tracey's first time on cameras, and Jack's first week managing the studio floor…. We are all very proud that this institution has come to Salford (the faces say it all!) and very grateful to our London colleagues for nurturing a brilliant programme and sharing it with us."
