Head's up for fellow TV Forumers - Newsround is going to look a little bit different today at 5pm. Problems with their studio mean they're coming from SQ2 - the North West Tonight/new Breakfast studio.


Will be interesting to see what they do.

I think they're just stick them in front of the screens on the side of the set. I doubt the full set will be seen.

So the first time SQ2 has been seen to a UK audience on BBC1?

Agreed, it's a much more impressive looking studio.

Isn't it just. Newsround's studio is just terrible, it's just some old-fashioned looking projection cubes with a little stand and a tiny sofa. Very bad compared to everything else we've seen from Salford.

Makes you wonder why they can't use this studio under normal circumstances!

I wonder why that 'NR' backdrop is of the previous look?

Possibly all they had for screens of that dimension or whatever at short notice? Alternatively, it may have just looked better.
