Well even though it was recently revamped, Border News is still dire, so I took it upon myself to give it a very regional-looking revamp. Note: the aim was to combine serious news coverage with the general regional tackiness. I hope I succeeded!

Opening titles:

Bright, cheerful, and undoubtedly regional, welcome to the world that is Border News.

Presenter:

Lovely Leyla here as an example in the obligatory keyed-background of a news studio with a hard hitting top story about cows.

Aston:

Slightly oversized, as is again obligatory.

Quote:

Quotes are a favourite feature used by most regional news programmes, as they can't be bothered getting out a camera to film the person speaking.

Sport:

And all of the exciting highlights from a game that not many people are interested in. Yep, that's regional sport for you.

Feel free to comment, praise, criticise or add more.

Very nice - it's quite sad when people on here can design a better look than Border actually use (3 months this year.... yuck...)
