\n<\/span><\/p>\nBBC Breakfast presenter Sian Williams will not move north with the programme when it relocates to its new base in Salford, the corporation has confirmed.<\/p>\n
She and presenter Chris Hollins have decided not to take part in the move for “personal reasons”, the BBC said.<\/p>\n
Both Bill Turnbull and Susanna Reid will stay on after the move to the BBC’s new northern headquarters.<\/p>\n
Breakfast editor Alison Ford said it was “great news” that 46% of the team will relocate in April 2012.<\/p>\n
“We always knew there would be those who wouldn’t be able to make the move for domestic reasons,” she added.<\/p>\n
“But we’ll have a really strong line-up of producers and presenters working together in MediaCity.”<\/p>\n
According to the corporation, both Williams and Hollins would “continue to be involved in the programme for the foreseeable future”.<\/p>\n
Helen Boaden, director of BBC News, said she was “delighted that so many staff have decided to make the journey”.<\/p>\n
“I am sure it will go from strength to strength in its new home.”<\/p>\n
The BBC announced last July that its flagship early morning breakfast show would be broadcast from the MediaCityUK complex from next year.<\/p>\n
Boaden said the move was “another important step in marking the BBC’s commitment to expand its presence beyond London”.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
