It's Official: Juliet Newell is the new ANN7 Prime Anchor

A few weeks ago I published an article asking whether Juliet Newell will be ANN7's permanent new anchor for ANN7 Prime after she started anchoring the show at the start of the festive season, though in rotation with other anchors.

Well, it seems as if the answer to that question is now yes.

Juliet Newell is now featured in promotional material for ANN7 Prime, appearing alongside Vuka Africa's Petet van Onselen and Express Lunch's Abigail Visage.

Juliet replaces Chantal Rutter Dros who anchored her final show on December 3rd 2014.

Juliet is a former anchor of etv's breakfast show and has also anchored on what is now know as BDTV.

In addition to that, she also has acting experience and is a former presenter at the Home Channel as well.

She now joins Peter Stemmet, who is ANN7 Prime's sports anchor (himself a former eNews guy). A business anchor is yet to be named after Tirrin Cosway departed from the channel last year (though my money is on former CNBC Africa anchor Natassia Arendse who herself has started anchoring on ANN7 in recent weeks).
