Also, News 24 have got the studio camera angles all wrong.
They need a front on angle, like the main picture on their website instead of that silly side/centre view they have.
To be honest the BBC need to experiment more with News 24, not just make it and leave it there.

I don't know if u've all seen the Two presenter BBC Wolrd clip from after the bomb but it looks really good on the opening shot.

Also at the start the woman, (i can't remember who she is) is faffing on with something and when the geadlines start she jolts up and it looks really funny.


P.S. Why on World normally are the four little beepy things at the start of the headline bed but on News24 there are 8? Is this to keep in line with the faster (dancier) news 24 countdown?
