ITV News

Facepalm moment on News at Ten noted by many on Twitter as the graphic designer used ‘Leicester Square’ to illustrate ‘Leicester’

Note to @itvnews : Leicester Square is in fact in London - not in Leicester. pic.twitter.com/0vrITNPQUk

Well, let's hope the Spanish city of Granada doesn't suffer a local lockdown, goodness knows what will get yanked out of the ITN picture library.

To be fair watching BBC News at 6 yesterday and on a graphic they’d spelt ‘Western Super Mare’ - so both at it for errors!

And not a horse in sight, I bet?

Seems ITV News didn't make their LIVE graphic suitable for all place names.

Yes it broke our graphics system. pic.twitter.com/nVWNUUtDvX

Jeez. They should shorten the name to just Llanfair.

They already have various shortened forms that they use, such as Llanfair PG, which is a lot less fun to put on screen.

Is it not ridiculous for the continuity announcer to introduce tonight's 11.15 pm bulletin as 'News at Ten'?!
He even said 'News at Ten is next' over the James Bond credits beforehand too.

It Is ridiculous. I know they never start bang on 22:00:00 anyway but surely there must be a time when they can stop pretending it's News at Ten? 11:15pm is most certainly not anywhere near 10:00pm.

It was also Saturday - News at Ten doesn't usually air on Saturday, does it, it's just generic ITV News? Please tell me they didn't use the NAT titles?

Was it the same CA who referred to Martin Sheen earlier this year? He sometimes leads-in to NAT by calling it ‘the evening’s news/evening headlines’ slightly inconsistently.

I have a idea. instead of the local weather forecast there should be a bulletin of national and regional news just before 4pm
