The last TV signals went through TV Centre last September, it is now a building site. The satellite side of things moved out a year before that: http://www.bbc.co.uk/ariel/29458164

Itn saying 6 seats won so far, BBC still saying 3. Declarations missed?

Isn't it usually the case that ITV make a projection based on the ongoing count rather than waiting for the declaration?

Well thats for uplinking the channels and stuff, I meant more inbound and outbound links to other BBC centres and stuff, is that all still there or has it been moved to [location I can't remember right now]?

The news updates coming from NBH is a bit disjointed I feel, would be better coming from the balcony in the election studio.

No, as I said: 'The last TV signals went through TV Centre last September' - that's everything. It's dead, closed and is a building site*


*except the old news centre which has been refurbished and is now offices for BBC Worldwide

I liked how the jib outside zoomed in to the front of the building pointing towards the newsroom after showing the big map. However I find it slightly annoying how the background behind Reeta is basically only screens with Reeta on it.


Think that was the Technocrane, not the jib. (There is a tracking Techno and a jib)
