It's an annual tradition, and as Calendar have their tree up (bit early ?), thought I'd start.

Any others ?

Really? Shocked Surely that colour looks far too contrasting with the teal (or blue?) set?

I don't understand why ITV regions don't invest in two trees. The sets are symetrical, the sofas and screens match each side, yet they usually just have one tree, maybe I'm just overly Christmas, but I'd add two.

Is two trees in a news studio really appropriate? It's not GMTV or a santa's grotto!
Also, I know Calendar always film from one side (as shown in the caps above), so they only have one corner on screen. I don't know if the other regions do this

Granada had a Christmas Tree this morning during GMTV, but not during Granada Reports, which seemed to have a revised format, but that may have been because of the main story.

Is it always that dark or has the tree fused all the lights?
