It feels like a regional news programme now. Almost like North West Tonight - it's terrible!

Not worth the wait and certainly not worth the money!


Indeed. It doesn't look that good. It didn't look right when Bill passed over to Richard Thomas. The screen looked horrible.

There doesn't seem to be any single shots of the presenters when they are reading the news items, it's just a double shot with the other presenter looking at the camera and at the reading presenter.

That's disappointing as I like it when they go through the headlines individually. Still not noticing much chemistry between Bill and Susanna. Sad


This picture says it all.

The shot for the business presenter looks good, with a good mix of the screens and light boxes.

Sting coming up.

The lighting is much more orange than it was in the press photos, though it doesn't do anything to stop the set from looking very cramped.

As expected, the background graphic performs poorly compared to the previous one. The really could do without the pot plant on Susanna's shoulder.

Video for anyone that didn't catch it:


Titles are hardly different at all, not sure on the set as yet myself. Doesn't look too bad, but not quite right either. Very sutble animation on th background (so far I've only really noticed a flock of birds flying past Sally Nugent).

I've noticed the monitors in the background animating when Ben was on the sofa with Business news.

The only thing I don't like at the moment are the titles. Martin's were much better.

Ben doing the business bulletin. It all looked fine until the camera moved to finance expert Richard Black. That camera shot looks horrible, nasty and shoddy.

Good news that Nick and Naga are back on Breakfast on Sunday!

Titles are disappointingly similar.


Surprisinly I actually like the set and the background on screen. Although someone on here said it animated with changing clouds... Can't spot anything (except the one monitor over by the business presenter) which is a shame.

HD looks good. But as someone else mentioned, BT and SR don't seem best buds! Laughing
