Is Gareth Edwards News Night's Permanent Friday Anchor Now?

Early in November, Gareth Edwards stepped down as anchor of eNCA's Afternoon News to take up the position of head of social media at the news organisation.

But it seems that despite this, Gareth now seems to be the channel's permanent anchor of News Night on a Friday evening. His first evening of anchoring the show in his current stint was November 7th.

His final Friday of anchoring his old Afternoon News slot was on November 14th, and he did not anchor that evening's News Night.

Since then, he has been anchoring News Night every Friday evening.

The only Friday evening he has not been anchoring News Night was on December 5th when the channel was covering the anniversary of the passing of Nelson Mandela, but even on that day he was providing live crossings from the Legacy Match.

I am definitely not complaining about having him on air every Friday, and I am sure neither Iman Rappetti or Jeremy Maggs, News Night's actual anchors, are complaining about having every weekend as a long weekend either.
