Not really local news - but she's a canny looker like........ 
Christine Bleakley has turned down a job on This Morning.
According to The Sun, she decided against the role because she wants to stay with The One Show.
Earlier this month, it was claimed that the Strictly Come Dancing star was the "number one choice" to replace Fern Britton.
She has since confirmed that she has been approached to host This Morning alongside Philip Schofield but plans to stay with the BBC.
"I am more than happy at The One Show," she said. "[Doing This Morning] would mean getting up very early. I am definitely a night owl."
She added: "It is a nice thing to be asked but I am very happy where I am for the time being."
Her One Show co-host Adrian Chiles recently refuted claims that the pair are romantically involved.
