This monster has no soul. If anyone needs to touch grass, it’s this…Thing!
Jayne is a lovely lady. Very impressed with her delivery.
Where is jayne now is she still with sky
I always had a thing for her
Regarding Jayne Secker, I think she is one of the warmest and professional presenters whom I watch and always enjoy. Who Lara Stans was watching when she made her comments I have no idea – maybe she was confusing Jayne with really rude/arrogant presenters.
No, Jayne Secker is a credit in every way and didn’t need to apologise to the mumbling young lady she was interviewing who made no sense at all when Jayne suggested that many young people today are just not practical because they are always spending time spewing texts to each other – and/or staring at screens while Life passes them by.
I enjoy watching and listening to Jane and Colin- they make a great team
To me Jayne Secker is such a cool news reporter indeed. Such a lovely woman.
She comes across as beautifuly as she looks & how she presents her self on TV.
I like her a lot indeed…
She’s arrogant, proud and patronising. I was shown the two interviews with young adults and I was appalled by her attitude.
Her apology reeks of f arrogance even though she used the Latin phrase “Mea culpa” to acknowledge she’d done wrong.
I won’t be watching or listening to her.
I fear that all too often she comes across as highly opinionated.
I just want to say Jayne Secker is such a credit to your News team and always such a pleasure to listen to. I wish more of your female team had her manner and skills. Well done Jayne! Keep up the good work!
