I hoped that England would win, but I would still rather watch the Ten, so not the whole country.

Yeah, the World presenters are quite famous in the rest of the world! I once read that Nik Gowing was swamped by fans in a hypermarket in France, and Adrian Finighan/Mishal Husain have been recognised in the USA given the co-pres that used to be on PBS last year.
!
Fans of the co-pres might be interested that it is set to return in the near future.
Yes, I'd heard that - although, Mishal won't be involved given her commitments with Breakfast, and in London, there's no definite presenter on the evening shift at the moment - seems to be a mixture between Mike Embley, Adrian Finighan and Zeinab Badawi.
BBC World are now promoting the return of the co pres. It will return on Monday 28th and will broadcast at 2300 and 0000 BST.
The programme will be presented by Katty Kay and Mike Embley on Mon - Thur and by Tania Becket and Zeinab Badawi on Friday

Grrrr, why no Adrian Finighan? He's such a good presenter, and I think he is very underused on BBC World at the moment. He did the co-pres last time with Mishal in Washington, and he proved himself then - for a kick off, he injected some humour into it when appropriate, which many other presenters either can't, or fail to do. A year ago, he was on the weekend evening shifts, doing the co-pres, and as soon as Mishal returns, he's back to doing weekends. I've seen him doing a couple of relief weekday shifts this week - he did Nik Gowing's a couple of times - and he is fantastic at interacting with business/sport presenters - on the weekend shift, he isn't able to show off his talents as much.

This may have been posted already (in which case apologies), but good to see that "in the know" does carry the graphics on News 24. Only Breakfast left now and we should pretty much be there....
Yet Breakfast at weekends carries the full TOG graphics set. So why not weekdays? At least we'd stop complaining

A "different" question....
During BBC1/News 24 simulcasts, does News 24 have the ability to put out different "screen furniture" i.e. graphics?
I'm thinking 2 things here:
- One thing that would dramatically improve the perception of Breakfast almost overnight, would be to adopt the News 24 graphics, notably the Breaking News banner and ticker.
- If major news breaks during simulcasts, lets take this new Saturday morning sport thingie as one example, what happens? After all, viewers to News 24 rightly expect to have the news covered "whenever it happens" (as per advertising) although BBC1 viewers may get a tiny bit annoyed if "BREAKING NEWS" is plastered all over what looks like a light-hearted sports prog.
I can't speak for anyone else, but I for one would have a much better perception of various N24 simulcasts if at least News 24 carried its own graphics set - and was therefore able to properly handle breaking stories - 24/7.

I'm watching In The Know on News 24 at the moment and it's, er, not really news. the Breakfast problem, all over again.
It also seems that the production team have forgotten about the tower in some of their graphics - it's had to spin out of the way once or twice so that things weren't obscured.
The studio appears to be the Newsnight set with the Breakfast sofa.
