The news channel also didn't pause to allow a cleaner opt although they trailed BBC 1 crossing to Marr.
There did seem to be a pause for BBC One to opt out but the presenter also did a mini-pause part way through the handover, with it looking like someone at Red Bee etc was a bit trigger happy, cutting to the ident whilst the presenter was in mid-flow?
Whilst the opening looks like it was pre-recorded in A, the shots of the guests in the intro looked like they were shot on the actual hard set of Studio B as normal, unless the VR is a bit more convincing for that part of the studio? Of course this is muddled further by the fact that they ended up doing the whole thing from the hard set of B!
Very odd that they hadn't given Chris Mason any paper scripts, and indeed that they kept the news bulletin - as mentioned by someone else it'll have a broader mix of stories but they were also ten minutes down so needed to find some time! In the pre-recorded intro there was a VT excerpt of a pre-recorded interview Marr had done immediately before the news throw, so they could have cut at the end of the interview preview to Mishal and gone straight into the paper review? They ultimately didn't have time to show the Marr pre-record either!
Also, the symbol into Marr at 9:10ish had no CA.
