Singer Ms Dynamite has recently announced she would join Dame Kelly Holmes, Alastair Campbell and former drug dealer turned novelist Howard Marks, to edit a TV news bulletin.

Ms Dynamite, 24, will start on 11 November, with Holmes, Marks and Campbell taking the next three consecutive Fridays, being responsible with the running order of the stories and commission their own reports on the TV bulletins.

Five News presenter Kirsty Young said: "The four guest editors have very different areas of specialist knowledge and use diverse disciplines in their respective fields of music, sport, culture and politics.
It will be fascinating to see how their backgrounds influence their editorial judgment, opinions on the day's top news stories and choice of individual reports."

Five News editor Mark Calvert stated: "This is a first for television news in this country.
All of our guest editors are used to being in the news, and have on many occasions been the focus of intense media interest.
But this will challenge them, and challenge their view of what makes news."

Among the last year's personalities to edit the news were rock star Bono, novelist Monica Ali and film director Anthony Minghella.
