Headlines is a LIVE innovative and interactive news and current affairs programme, looking at the day’s big stories which are making the headlines that everyone’s talking about. Our show hosts will be joined by respected journalists and commentators, examining the morning’s papers and online stories whilst offering analysis and personal viewpoints on the topics that matter to you. The show will be focused but not exclusively, on the black diaspora in the UK and overseas, presenting news and current affairs in an engaging way.

A new show means new faces to OH TV where we believe in discovering and nurturing promising talent.  The show will be hosted alternatively by experienced journalists that are experts in asking the right questions to gain the much sought after responses that you want to hear.

A new addition to the OH TV schedule, Headlines is a place where we want you to be a major part of the discussion.

Are there topics you want to get the world talking about?
What do you want to comment on?

We know you have opinions, so let’s hear them! We are inviting you to take part and interact with the hosts and other viewers by using any of our links. 

Weekday mornings will never be the same again!

Tobi  Karunwi

I’ve always wanted job where I could express my artistic flair. I started off my journey at OH as an intern without any experience or knowledge about the media industry in general. With time and chance I was fortunate enough to be given my first breakthrough as the assistant set designer for one of the shows on OHTV- Its All Good, due to my artistic abilities. I then went on to become the set designer for another flagship show called Afrika Rising as well as the OHNEWS. After a while working in the OH STUDIO department, the management took me under their wing teaching me new skills after which I became a camera operator on the latest flagship show – REAL TALK. Now, I’m a graphics designer, set designer and studio camera operator.
