ITV news anchor Lucy Meacock gave a simple six word message as she ‘bowed out quietly’ after presenting her last ever Granada Reports tonight (August 1).
Earlier this week the presenter told viewers she was 'bowing out', after finishing an epic 36 years on Granada Reports during the 'saddest of weeks'.
