No surprise there then. He's obviously clueless.

Utter Lunacy.

A nice vt clock design in between the breaks, I presume this is the standard stv vt clock, I'll see if I can take a grab from it later.

Loosely related to this thread, but i've posted the vt clock in the stv presentation thread in tv home.

A very BBC look to the STV debate - the podiums used are very similar to the ones used for previous BBC debates and having just an LED screen behind them is like the BBC election debate and the recent Euro debate. Unfortunate that ITV didn't take it - odd to hear so much about a debate many didn't get the chance to see!

Alan Titchmarsh was more important.

ITV News's graphics slotted in well. Would of STV's been done in house or by a company?

That seems a bit of a stupid decision on STV's part. Fair game to offer it to ITV but it doesn't make much commercial sense for them to show it, especially at two hours long and on their weakest night of the week ratings wise anyway.

I would have thought it being on their weakest night of the week would have been reason enough to take it. Couldn't have done that much worse than their line up last night.

It seems it did pull in the viewers.

Is it just me or is the picture quality of the debate that's being shown on BBC Parliament is somewhat lack luster? It's been quite pixalated at times at my end...

It's not just STV's stream that was dodgy last night. From what I see on BBC Parliament the actual picture wasn't great either, a few glitches already.

Enjoying the debate though.

It looks like an off air recording as it includes the DOG and hashtag - and apparently the picture quality of STV in standard definition was quite poor last night.
