Tom Bradby is set to become the main presenter of ITV News at Ten as part of a new-look line-up.

The move means the bulletin will return to a single anchor format, which will mostly be fronted by Bradby, who is stepping down as the programme's political editor.

On occasions the show will be hosted by co-anchor Julie Etchingham and international affairs editor Rageh Omar.

As part of the shake-up, Mark Austin will move to co-anchor the early evening news with Mary Nightingale - renewing their previous award-winning partnership.

One of television's best known presenters, Alastair Stewart, will regularly anchor both the ITV News at 1.30pm and 6.30pm.
